Playing football is a push... a very big one.

But Byrne played better than most?

I’m not saying he is fit and firing... but Baxter was training with Everton u23s as well as all summer doing a fitness camp thing which looked very intense on his Instagram. Hes not match fit, but he’s only Guna get that by playing games.

Tactics.... simple as that.

Drop Gardner and O Grady. Baxter and nepomucino in and play 442. I’d keep Zeus in net too. Zeus Hunt Clarke Edmundson Taylor Branger Missilou Nepomucino Baxter Surridge Lang Although I reckon frankie will stick to a similar team as Saturday with maybe nepo coming in for Lang/surridge and iverson back in.

“Goes hiding in games”. Hes barely kicked a ball for us... ?. Hard to get into the English game if you don’t play games regularly. He’s done ok in the past (nothing special)... but played well last night. Agree with the wage part. However, interpreters wage + footballers wage = Maouche.

Bunn did sound annoyed but he’s only got himself to blame, he signed him knowing the risk, he’s spent the budget how he has (mostly decent btw). worrying how he alluded to we can only really afford to do this kind of deal due to finances. The wage bill has been cut by over 50% and now being told we can only sign crocks basically.

Reckon you should get a week free from downvotes just for this effort tonight... fair play!

Is it free to watch on iFollow?

Went for hunt, just ahead of edmundson for me. Provided the assist for the first goal, defended very well against the pace of poleon. Put in the cross for the header Lang should have done better with. (Nearly cost us at the end but shouldn’t tarnish what was a good performance).

I’d rest as many as possible as injuries seem to be a massive issue. Zeus hamer edmundson graham hunt branger missilou lydon maouche Lang miller

Gardner cost us the goal and could have cost us more by ball watching and letting his man drift right by him. i got slated the last couple of weeks for pointing out his weaknesses...

Simple question really...

Never said it was, but it’s relevant to the argument we were having... it would have an effect on what you was saying. Bigger crowds, bigger budgets, better ran clubs... I’d say so.

Once again... what disrespect?

That’s a shocking example... Scottish football don’t have the money that English teams do, especially Salford who are being pushed by famous wealthy people. Better standard than league two by a mile. At least he will get a kick.

When was he disrespectful? And picking up a wage? Late... after maouche and omrani.

Have you been a Latics game this season? The standard of football is Sunday league... if not worse!

Oh he told you that himself did he? ???

You realise he’s played in Holland? And he is now in Scotland? ?

Bollocks like this is what’s pissing me off... These players you speak about and blame us for our relegation wasn’t being paid, while shit like omrani and queensy and maouche were being paid in buckets. And you want them to perform to their highest and drag the rest of the shit to a high standard to keep us up. Any idea that it was the shit players (of which most the shit ‘nice’ players are still here) got us relegated? (And the manager). oh and the 3 clubs you name are better clubs than Oldham athletic...

He’s got a new club already...

So what happens now? Looks like he’s not going. Do we leave him to rot while paying him (5k?) a lot of money... Do we play him and hope he gives his all? Do we play him and he doesn’t give a fuck? Club have messed up big time here!

It’s more a case of style of play for me. Long ball to o Grady seems the only plan. It’s clear we need Baxter and Byrne in the team and a new winger. I know Byrne won’t play again so Baxter, a new winger with surridge and Lang up top might have to do.

I’d say it was missilou who needed help in midfield after tonight.
