    Good article. If you're not already aware of it, my mate Alan runs a website and edits a magazine - JSoccer. I'm sure he'd be happy to hear from you if you'd like o write more. http://jsoccer.com/

    Ray Wilson. He won the World Cup!

    Yep. Great day. And the roar from both sets of fans at full time when the Utd score was read out, will stay with me forever. :-)

    Ha, ha! My dad once spent the entire ninety minutes slagging him off, only to be told at the final whistle, that Ian's mum was sitting in front of him!

    That's the one. I went and I knew we lost. Just couldn't remember the year. Thanks.

    He could well have been playing. I certainly watched Latics before then, but that's the first XI I can actually remember.
  7. ThaiLatic
    And can still recall it nearly fifty years later!

    Was that Bournemouth match the one we went on the League Liner? Or am I getting them mixed up?

    The first Latics team I can remember would've been something like this: 1. Barry Gordine 2. Ian Wood 3. Ray Wilson 4. Alan McNeil 5. Jim Bowie 6. Bill Cranston 7. Don Heath 8. David Shaw 9. Jim Fryatt 10. Tommy Brycleland 11. John Colquhoun All heroes!

    One of my favourites, when I was young. RIP Tommy.
  11. ThaiLatic
    Thanks.

    Apparently he was on loan at Oldham in 2009. His name didn't ring any bells with me. And it's one you would expect to remember.
  13. ThaiLatic
    Does anyone remember him? He's just signed for Sisaket in the Thai Premier League.

    It will always be Mouldy Old Dough for me.

    I'd certainly recommend this - if possible. Burton is one of the most accommodating towns in England. You'll have a great time.

    Thanks. I didn't realise that the Friday is a Bank Holiday. Easter? I guess it's a pain for those fans who've already made plans. I know why Burton is famous. I grew up there. :-) The Blue Posts, The Dog, The Bridge, The Roebuck, The Coopers (next to the dole office!), The Sump etc. No doubt Diego will pitch in with a few more :-)

    I know. But that was a cup tie. When I moved to the Burton area in 1975, the thought of Oldham playing the Albion in a league game seemed ridiculous. It's just a shame that this fixture won't be at Eton Park. In addition, the fact that I'll be watching my "local" team hosting my hometown team in a fixture while I'm watching on TV 6,000 miles away, seems quite romantic.

    This is a genuine question, so please don't get angry. Why is a 12:30pm Saturday kick off at a ground less than two hours drive away such a problem? I would've thought that this was preferable to playing on a Friday. Thanks.

    I've been waiting for this match for 41 years!
  20. ThaiLatic
    Well, now you can all have a Friday AND Saturday night in Burton. That has to be a result.
  21. ThaiLatic
    Good news for me.
  22. ThaiLatic
    Happy Christmas everyone!

    I remember watching an early '80s (Channel 4?) documentary about the Shaw Road Estate and the demolition of the old terraced houses. It was the inspiration for Everything But The Girl's 'Anytown' - which includes the line: "Summer in the driving rain and I can hear the Oldham train".

    I went to this match with my grandad. It was a choice between the Latics or staying at home and watching Harry Worth on the TV. Worst decision I ever made! I didn't go to the Scarborough tie (it was midweek) but I remember listening in horror to the coverage on Radio Two - as it was then.

    I think future Latics legend Andy Lochhead got a hat trick.
