  1. Are they all in line for the as yet un-vacant Dale job?
  2. Alan Hardy as new manager? I suppose he has done most other jobs at the club.
  3. In - No-one Out - No-one Richards - City Reserves Me - Back at work, pissed off, back on diet, no beer till Friday
  4. KLF REM OMD ELO MARRS ABC ACDC B52's UB40
  5. Would it be more likely to have your card rejected if it carried the Latics badge? Not because of lack of funds, but just because it has the Latics badge on it?
  6. Didn't Darren McDonough play in every position except goalie?
  7. Clyde "I'm just popping out to make a phonecall" Wijnhard?
  8. Northampton Town? Its not a million miles from Coventry (just over 30 I think) and has decent links to the M1 and onto the M6.
  9. The home shirts are also £25 on the website. Is this a sign of reducing the price because people have not got cash, or are they selling them off before changing kit supplier?
  10. Official site http://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news/article/20121031-spiderman-457073.aspx Personally, I would have thought Crofty would have fallen through.
  11. Billy Quarmby's being interviewed by Coventry?
  12. Coming out? Is this the Nick Grimshaw thread again?
  13. If it were not for the Belfast Why Don't You gang I would never have learnt how to make petrol bombs.
  14. Wayne Harrison was the Rooney of his era. I remember him scoring 5 and Mike Cecere getting 3 in a reserve game I was a ballboy at. £250000 at the time for him was a phenomenal amount of money (of which he would have got a cut?) United were interested in in him and I remember Ron Atkinson coming to a reserve game and the few Latics fans who turned up singing 'Munich' related songs. Big Joe went apoplectic at them. Horrific injury at Liverpool notwithstanding, should he not have a PFA pension and insurance payout?
  15. I hoped the smily wink was a way of conveying the stupidity of the concept.
  16. Would now be the wrong time to bring up the concept of a mid season break?
  17. It is the lounge under the Main Stand. Go in through the Official entrance, past the offices, turn left and you are there. Go through the door marked Fire Exit and you are at the top of the tunnel. Go through the next door to the left and its the Gents loo. Go through the next door on the left and there is a small kitchen (under the TV, behind the flowers.
  18. I suffer from depression and it can be a really debilitating condition. My advice to anybody is to tell people that you are suffering. Its really tough to do so...you create a mask in order to hide it. I don't know why, perhaps its the stigma, perhaps its the misconceptions about others thinking you are 'mental' and could turn at any second. The fact is that its a very personal illness until you take the step to admit it. From personal experience, actually admitting it is the hardest, yet the best thing that you can do...as the admission makes you feel so much better than than the depression makes you feel bad. There are also some things that you can do without medication. Exercise releases endorphins and seratonin, and any exercise helps. I try to run a couple of miles per day and even though I am a long way off the London 2012 Olympics I feel better when I exercise regularly. Sunlight is also a good thing, as I always feel better when there is a bright sunny day, winter or summer (not a good thing if you live in Oldham!!) On the down side, alcohol is a major no no. It is a depressant and actually ends up lowering your mood. Not only that, but you also have to cope with the problems of a hangover!! Also, if you are feeling down, then try and get out of the house. Its easy to say that daytime TV is depressing, but if you get out and interact with people then it does help to raise your mood. You may find places and interests that you never knew you had - Museums, Art Galleries, Rambling in the moors, window shopping? Finally, don't expect to "snap out of it" and don't allow people to tell you that you will "snap out". Many people did with me and I believed them, and when I didn't I was even more down. If you admit it, and make positive steps then you have made some progress. Some progress leads to more progress etc etc. Gary, like Robert Enke before him tragically seemed to have let their masks cover their illness. If you think you have a friend displaying any symptoms of depression please talk to them. Dont force them to admit their illness, as they will withdraw, but let them know you are there. And don't blame it on supporting Oldham...we could be Stockport County fans....
  19. Due to unforeseen technical problems (gross stupidity) there will not be a Mystic Mutt prediction for Walsall. However, she did mention that a draw was likely.
  20. I have decided that we dont need any independent adjudicators for this feature. My word is my bond!! Link
