  1. He will be in the squad and will get on ahead of O'Grady. Good to have strength in depth.
  2. We have had two home games - the atmosphere was excellent against Millwall and less so yesterday. It will improve as we extend our lead at the top and the larger supported teams come to BP as well.
  3. Neil Eardley is 19 years old and still learning his trade - I think he will be a good 'un but possibly better in midfield. He'll do for me
  4. The bit that makes me laugh is the line about previous comments 'I will still stand by them should a consistent dip in form return.' A few years ago, I said the exact thing about Ronaldo - and if he suffers a dip in form then I will stand by those comments too!
  5. So I go into a garage to test drive a 20k car - I know that I only have 10k to spend but I don't bother to discuss this with the salesman. Naturally I love the car and want to take it - but the salesman will not come down to my 10k limit. WHo's time have I wasted? If I had discussed the price beforehand and realised that the car was going to be out of my price range perhaps I would have chosen to test drive a cheaper car...
  6. By not clarifying the amount that the lad would cost us - duuuh!
  7. I think a valid point is raised here - Latics have been naive if they did not raise up front the matter of what percentage of Demar Phillips wages Stoke wanted us to pay. Yes Sheridan still wants the lad at BP and so do most of us on the board - but hopes have been raised and a player potentially misled. So 'complete load of tosh' no I don't think so. 'Little or no business dealings' again I don't agree with that comment either - if you conduct your business deals the way latics have gone about this deal then Ithink your career is on a road to nowhere.
  8. Taylor has a great touch, deceptive pace and can only get better - he is a class player and was a handful for Millwall today. Alessandra is another who is only going to get better and better - he looked stronger than last season and his touch is also top. One for the Millwall team - I liked the look of the tall centre back Whitbread (even though he gave away that free kick...).
  9. I sat in the main stand - both the Chaddy and RRE were loud at times but Millwall had more to sing about until the subsitutions changed the game. The atmosphere in the ground was good today and if we can get the balance of the team right, then home games will be great fun.
  10. They played it and it was mint - will get the whole ground rocking I'm certain of that - tune
  11. I live a mere 198 miles away - travelling up today with a pal for the game - full of expectation and a little trepidation too - you blues!
  12. Crossley but Fleming will take over this season
  13. Applause or silence - it's a magnificent gesture - well done
  14. My thoughts exactly -we now have the luxury of being able to bring the younger players along gradually. Got to be good for the long term future
  15. John Sheridan is the gaffer - the team he picks is okay by me - if Liddell is doing the business then that is okay too. After yesterday I think there will be some surprises next week with the starting line-up.
  16. on the fishul site http://www.oldhamathletic.premiumtv.co.uk/...1354733,00.html
  17. Nope - don't think so. As I understand it, Hull have been given the large section of the RRE with the small section closed.
  18. And there's more... Preston - One to Watch - Neal Trotman Notts County - Most important player type thing - Richard Butcher Oldham - a great start in life for a professional footballer
