  1. I read a topic on another website this morning about going in the home section at away games. It reminded me of a match verses Cardiff in the 76/77 season I think. A mate and I got talking to some Cardiff fans in the Spinners before the game. We got on really well and they suggested we go in the RRE with them for the game. Being young and foolish (and after several beer we agreed). Walking to the ground with them we got attacked by some Latics fans but that didn’t put us off. Latics won 2-0 and my mate and I both went mad when Latics scored. We got some funny looks from the Welshmen but survived intact. We must have been mad. Has anyone else done anything similarly foolish?

  2. if you say so!

    hope they dont give us reserved seats like last season then...to to be fair we just sat behind the goal anyway!

    My tickets arrived yesterday and all of them have a seat number on them. When you go through the turnstile at Hartlepool they issue you with a ticket that also has a seat number.

  3. Why do the supporters of the rugby club have an antipathy for Latics? I know one rugby fan from Shaw who went to the Rochdale game; he went in with the Rochdale fans (he doesn’t support them) & wanted them to win. I asked him why he wanted Rochdale to win and he replied “because I’m a Rugby fan”. He is born & bred in Oldham.

  4. The BBC have now corrected part of the report. Evidently, we still couldn't make the extra man count though?

     

    "Oldham were down to 10 men on the stroke of half time after Craig Davies headbutted Nathan Stanton.

     

    But Oldham failed to make the extra man count and had to rely on penalties to dispatch their north west neighbours".

  5. Taken from the BBC website:

    “Rochdale were down to 10 men on the stroke of half time after Craig Davies head butted Nathan Stanton.

    But Oldham failed to make the extra man count and had to rely on penalties to dispatch their North West neighbours.”

     

    Another piece of lazy journalism concerning non-greedy league football?
