  1. So did I actually. I remember the first game of last season, Us Vs Swansea....

     

    I stopped on the M5 at strensham services (IMO the best services in the country) and ended up chatting to some swansea fans... I remember them saying somthing like "Buoyo, watch out for this Bodde bloke, he is the new lower league Roy Keane" ... to which I responded "Nah way, he will have no chance - we have Kalala... who is just like a lower league Claude Makalele"

     

    :lol:

     

    How wrong was I....

    Surely Tebay is the widely acknowledged service station in the UK, Michealwood is also quite good
  2. Living in N.Ireland as i do, i was wondering how many other fans there are supporting the latics from here or even abroad.

     

    Im asking because i was at my nephews under 14 football final in a town called Lisburn 2 Saturdays ago, and walked past a fella wearing a latics hat, ( i myself was wearing the latics woolly hat ).

     

    This is a rarity to say the least, as in 18yrs of supporting Oldham ive seen 4 people in N.Ireland wearing Latics merchandise.

     

    Im not even an exile as ive lived in N.Ireland my whole life, and started to support Oldham when i got into football, which happend to be when we got to the Semis in the FA.Cup in 90, so i suppose you could call me a glory hunter!!!!! ( im 25 by the way just incase yous thought im supporting Oldham since birth!!!

     

    I Manage to follow the teams progress on Latics world and never miss the commentary, unless i go and see the boys live, and im disappointed to say i only seen 3 games last season season, Swansea, Southend and Leeds all at home. Its handy enough, me and the misses stay just down the road from Boundary Park in the Premier Travell In, but all in all expensive.

     

    So how do the other fans abroad/ N.Irleland Follow the boys and how many are there???

    I was on a stag do in Belfast a couple of years back, was drinking in laverys, and bumped into a NI latics fan, said he used to be in the fan club back in the glory days, small world innit
