There were around six of us walking up to the train station after the match and about 20 Hudds 'boys' on the other side, just about 400 yds before we got to the station they starting chanting something like, 'where are ya Failswoth'

 

One of them, around 40 years old, strolled over to us and starting singing anti Oldham chants etc and knowing we were must be from Oldham starting baiting us!!

 

I'd had enough so in true Bruce Lee mode, duly laid out all 20 or so of them single handedly

 

Nah, we just casually ignored the knob and made our way to The Head Of Steam, opened the door, thought that when we realised it was full of meat heads and got the 5.30 train home

 

Not sure I'll ever be the same again

that 5.30 train journey didnt go without incident either, off duty coppers trying to throw a lad off for chanting "get your tickets out for the lads" when the clippy came round, no sense of humour some people, lots of pissed up folk on the train who were doing the "real ale trail" only added to the hi jinks

I was all for a new ground pretty much anywhere within reason, but not sharing in limbo I want a future to support as well as a present not merely an existence. If that's the case I walk away for good and will not look back just like I did when Jim Quinn and OMBC fooked Oldham RLFC fans off. I await the announcement with interest...

Personally its through thick and thin for me, looks like the thin times are coming and the club needs us more than ever, I wont walk away, I wouldnt like to be in the trenches with some of the folk who post on here.

I wonder what the NIMBYs down there would make of a few "houses for large families" on their doorstep???

I think to optomise profit, lots of tower blocks should be built at Failsworth, or maybe a St Marys style estate, the council might have some old plans somewhere that Latics could borrow.

yes he was, good see a GK with a sense on humour, took a bit of stick over his weight and did a sumo/muscle man impression for us. Had a kick about with the ball boy to keep him and lad warm and then shook the hand of the latics fan (don't know his name, always sings, dresses like a punk rocker with spikey hair), when he went down to shake his hand after giving him stick over his weight.

 

wish more were a bit more humours and would let more goals in of course.

Goalie to Leezyverpunk; "Whats the score with your fackin barnet mate?" hahaha

His shirt falls off my son's bedroom wall, now stood up on the floor against the wall and I'm off to bed safe in the knowledge the Ginger Ninja is still a blue…

 

 

Night my Blue Bretheren….

Anyone seen the Droylesden England Flag with the Latics crest in the top corner?

I saw a latics shirt in the crowd on day two,you lucky lucky man!

I have noticed recently, people writing "are" when they mean "our". That getteth on my tits.

I often find they just end up disappointed.

What about those travel mugs? they'd go down well i reckon

I take it you go to work on Christmas day then.

I bet Corney, Furman and Jacobson will be working Christmas day

The EDL laid a wreath in remembrance of those who died on 9/ll at the war memorial in Oldham, no books were burnt. The EDL in chadderton were prevented from walking to Oldham centre by the police and were ordered to disperse, they were in Chadderton because Oldhams nearest train station is now Mills Hill. As far as im aware there was no NF around.

I suspect there would be some flexibility in the FA rules, given that Grimsby play in Cleethorpes, Manchester United play in Trafford and Port Vale doesn't even exist!

 

And don't get me started on Wimbledon.

And, what about Chester, half thier ground was in a different country!

how do i take a photo and put it on here ?

blu tak should suffice

Someone on facebook just said it was Paul Ince- oh no

How's that lad off your estate who got left for dead over the weekend doing?

Still in hostpital i believe, with injuries to his ears, i'm sure more will come to light soon

Well, I still think it's absolutely hilarious that Griffin likes cock. So there.

Does he? I hear he disputes that smear, but dont let that get in the way of you having a right good laugh about it, I might start one about you.

There was racist graffiti in the subway under Chadderton Way last time i went through. i've also seen stuff along Broadway. Unfortunately it's not that uncommon, there's a fair bit of it in the part of Liverpool where i used to live (i haven't seen any where i live now in Toxteth, unsurprisingly).

And unfortunately people's homes do get attacked - i could be wrong but wasn't one of the things that led up to the riots Stoke 'fans' putting in windows in Westwood?

I can confirm there is racist graffiti in the subway under Chadderton way, its from the ahem "pro ginger" faction

I was thinking more like this

 

Perhaps we could do the "name on a brick" scheme like Sunderland did, that would raise a lot of revenue i'll wager

Rest In Peace big Fella

What are these mezuzot that are dotted around the ground?

I trust Alan more than anyone in that board room...

i wonder if he's still got that sheepskin, it should be behind glass that coat!

Yeah the PC card got played before the 'racist' card. Personally i agree with Armando Iannucci:"I like political correctness. I like the fact that you can't use the words 'Paki' and 'mong' in railway station announcements."

Yeah because people were always coming out with stuff like that down the railway station werent they?

.....and your point is ??????

 

 

I live in one of the biggest multicultural cities and work with people from nearly every culture the world as to offer

I worked in Croydon for ten weeks once, its definatley multicultural

Furman, Jacobsen and Blackman

wow i wouldnt have guessed at Blackman, i wonder if you could make a full team of Jewish players, from players in the English leagues?

at least the jewish community is well represented at latics 3latics players the club owners and 3people on here too

Who are the Jewish players? Furman obviously, but who's the other two?

thought he was turd today, but obviously im a simple kinda guy not with your" in depth" mind.He was unlucky not to score when he hit that shot ten yards over the bar, real unlucky.
