Chesterfield vs Kings Lynn Town Danny Rowe hit a memorable first goal for the club with a long-range free-kick. I wonder if...nah, not possible...

I cannot think of another player in recent Latics’ history who fails so often to bring the ball under control when played into him. As Tommy Docherty is oft quoted: “ he can trap a ball further than I can pass it” (*) * or similar

You missed out my particular favourite Mohamed Maouche * now on the books at Ross County but hasn’t yet featured...

As per my post I wonder if Curle will give any of the named academy players a start in either of the remaining games? You are correct in that none have played 90 minutes in a league game. Sutton and Hough have done so in the Papa John’s and Luamba did start Away at Grimsby. Surely one or two will be given a chance?

I wonder if Keith Curle will use the final two games to give one or two from the Academy a start? There are four or five who could/should feature: Vaughan Da Silva Luamba Hough Sutton All have been in and around the first team squad this season.

He does put out some strange posts I’ll grant you that His latest gem: ‘Why not just acknowledge it's been great when we've been scoring, and annoying as hell when we concede?’ Er ..yeah.. right

I don’t know of anyone and I mean ANYONE who thinks that 17th in League 2 is acceptable. And honestly, do you?

Game over. Poor defending cost us. From the ‘John Helm school of glass half full’ we did win the second half AND had more corners... Walker should not have started Fage should have been subbed at halftime. Jameson and Clarke were very poor. DKD contributed very little. McCalmont contributed even less. Having said that, Morecambe had three hugely influential players in Diagouraga, Mendez-Gomez and Stockton. We could not cope with their movement. We did well to only lose by the odd goal in seven. And as for the co commentator...

same team and Blackwood on the bench

Why not interested? It’s our team on a mini run of two victories - can they make it three on the bounce and turn over the mighty Morecambe? Pointless? I hope not...I want all three

If all fit I would make one change to the last time out starting eleven - Adams in for Fage. Walker, Clarke, Piergianni, Jameson, Adams, McCalmont, Whelan, Borthwick-Jackson, Bahamboula, McAleny, Keillor-Dunn

Sadly his form had not been good for some time when he moved on. The change has obviously done him good and he seems to be on much better form with his long throw a vital part of the Burton attacking options. As well as scoring yesterday he also hit the crossbar with a looping header. I recall that he did captain Latics on a couple of occasions so maybe his leadership skills are there. Pleased for the lad.

Meanwhile... what’s this all about? As well as the term ‘taking legal advice’ the tweet also talks of ‘allegations’ being made that are ‘abhorrent’ ...

The article also mentions the following: "After the year end, the club sold three players for a profit of £50.8 million.

I’m not sure that Jim ever played at a professional level

Keith Curle to take over at the end of the season...

If only we could convince half of our squad of this..

And even though I lived in London for twenty years the ground was always a pain to get to

1964 - That was the season Palace were promoted from the Third Division as runners up. They were pipped by Coventry on goal average.

Agree. Also think Hilssner was a decent loan signing.

For those who plan go to the majority of home games getting a season ticket at next season’s offer prices makes financial sense.

The other thing that I remember about Leighton James was seeing him after the game wearing glasses Apparently he was very short sighted so I can only assume that he played wearing contact lenses.

Six ex-players scored last night: Clarke-Harris, Doyle, Duffus, Lang, Lund & Surridge. If you could have one of them back at Latics who would you choose and why?
