  1. First time I went, I think was the first ever Sunday game. If I remember correctly, we weren't allowed to pay for entrance, but had to buy a program at the gate as an entrance fee.
  2. How do some of those clubs pay the wage bill on the gates they get? 790 employees! What do they all do? As for De Gea wanting £400 pw. isn't Ramsey rumoured to be moving to Juventus for £600k a week. It is ridiculous and many of these top clubs would be in serious trouble if the TV companies decided enough was enough, and offered much lower contracts to cover games. Unfortunately they won't because the lieks of Sky depend on football, not so much BT, and terestial TV companies can't compete and have more or less pulled out altogether. How long will it be before Amazon Prime starts bidding, pushing up wages even more?
  3. Bury yes, but how big is their wage bill and how do they get around SCMP rules? Lincoln were nothing but a spoiling team. They stop the opposition by any means possible, fall over to get fouls, cheat and are awful to watch. Very few sides in L2 try to play good football. As for the Championships extravagance, they do get a large chunk of TV money, but they say it is nowhere near enough compared to the Premiership deal.
  4. He lost the plot ages ago. His interviews sounded lkie he was on a different planet at times.
  5. We certainly wouldn't have been passing the ball as accurately. Maouche is a far better player than Gardner.
  6. OK Missile should have cleared the ball up the line rather than messing about, but there were quite a few passes after that which ultimately led to the corner. There were other corners which we defended, this was just another one which we failed to defend, so I can't blame Missile for the goal. As for the playoffs we are a point closer now than we were before the game. Lots will happen over the next few weeks so I'm not writing this season of yet.
  7. PS says today that Stott has gone back to Stockport because it would be pointless for him to be sitting on the bench not playing. He says Stockport are going for promotion and he is very happy with the job they are doing with him. PS also says he will be an important player next season and he likes him (mind you he also says he likes Coke).
  8. If I remember correctly Alan Hardy designed the current badge when someone decided a rebrand was needed. It wasn't. A survey out the other day, revealed that Oldham is the 9th. worst place in the country to live. Could be worse Rochdale was the 3rd. worst. Peterborough being the worst.
  9. I have completed your survey, but the email address you have supplied in the questionnaire seems to be invalid.
  10. I'm happy with your decision. It would be a nightmare for you to sort out and you do a great job taking the time to run this for us.
  11. PS also says Afolayan got injured in September and hasn't played since. He will probably be on the bench at Bury.
  12. I wasn't able to enter my prediction in time because the site said an update was in progress, but here goes anyway Latics 2-0 Morcambe HT 0-0 Baxter 3825
  13. Hamer is not training yet according to PS he is still very sore. Lang will be assessed tomorrow. I would go wilth. Iversen Hunt Edmundson Clarke Stott Branger Maouch Missilou Nepo Baxter O'Grady
  14. I was just wondering when we will get a reply to the questions we have put to the trust.
  15. It's the covers that ruin the pitch which must be left on all the time when it's frosty overnight. If they were taken off during the day I guess it may be a bit better, but it would be quite a bit of work for the grounds staff. It was worse last year because it was colder and he covers were on more. It's not just the main pitch, the training pitches need replacing as well.
  16. I read it that the fans group contacted Brass Bank to purchase the land, not that they were looking to sell. I may be wrong.
  17. I did say the trust new something about the land the we didn't. I have put a couple of questions on the trust site.
  18. He wouldn't get into the midfield we have now, unless we had a lot of injuries.
