Gateshead kicked out the playoffs. -
MATCH: Halifax Town (?) 18/04/24
jsslatic replied to Bender's topic in The opinions4u Terraces - Latics Forum
Still in with a shot at promotion when we kick off less than 48 hours before the end of the season. We have a whole summer/lifetime to bemoan how this has panned out. Get yourselves down there. -

It would be helpful, but Aldershot's goal difference is shit. They could win tomorrow and we could both (well, you) still overhaul them if they get turned over on Saturday. -
Avro v Ashton United at BP
jsslatic replied to BP1960's topic in The opinions4u Terraces - Latics Forum
Did Mellon go to this game? If so, why was he wasting his time there instead of watching Halifax when we play them on Thursday? If not, why wasn't he looking at available gems playing in his doorstep? I don't know the answers to these questions but I am angry about them. -

MATCH: Oxford City (A) 13/04/24

And that ignores the ridiculous suggestion we'd be better off for having Willoughby and Tollitt around. -
Micky Mellon Sack Watch
jsslatic replied to GKing521's topic in The opinions4u Terraces - Latics Forum
Because our fans have become boo happy since Abdallah. It loses its meaning. I've seen a post somewhere on here about Hudson having a pop after being told to get on with it. It sounds out of order. However for context a similar thing happened at Altrincham after about 25 mins when we had a GK and he went to get the ball. Some idiot was screaming at him to hurry the fuck up up because we needed to win the game. He looked at them completely bemused given: a) it was 25 minutes in b) it was 0-0 c) he wasn't doing anything slowly It may well be that he needed to hurry up today, but things lose their impact when people get disproportionately and performative angry, itching for the pissboil. It's a boy who cried wolf scenario. We've made a complete pig's ear of this and it's not unreasonable to let that be known. But this team was being booed whilst they were in the playoff places, because it's become part of some people's day out. I'm glad to see Mellon's interview. He sees what we see. The team isn't good enough. Maybe he will be shown not to be good enough, but maybe given he can see the issues and he did a decent enough job at covering the turd in glitter, we might be best trying to get through the season without using a fifth manager. Booooooooooooo. -
MATCH: Halifax Town (A) 10/04/24

8 days left of the season and still no news - going to be behind closed doors this isn't it? -

Halifax may need one to get these fixtures in! -

I hope the club are deliberately playing hardball. Play it next Thuesday and force Halifax into playing 4 games in 7 days. However slim our chances are we have to look after ourselves. -

Christ. This thread is just the same people making the same points over and over again. -

I'd suggest that a barnstorming finish to the season winning our last four games would be the opposite of Typical Latics! -
MATCH: AFC Fylde (H) 29/03/24
jsslatic replied to Bender's topic in The opinions4u Terraces - Latics Forum
Yep. I can handle our fans embarrassing themselves kicking off about that (which isn't the first time it has happened at BP), but the fact the ref then had to explain it to several players - fuck me. -

Tuesday will be 30 years since my first Latics match. I have a feeling we'll get six points this weekend, which will light the spark for this suddenly feeling like a promotion season. Nobody gets these sort of predictions wrong thirty seasons in a row.
