    Our problem is going to be the state of the pitch, it was dreadful yesterday and will only get worse over the next 4 or 5 weeks . The pitch should have been relaid in the summer, but Lemsagam chose the cheaper option of just reseeding.
  2. mad4it
    Probably because he had to play a lone striker and our passing was woeful
  3. mad4it
    That’s because benteke played to far away from him , when O’Grady won the ball he had no one to lay it of to
  4. mad4it
    That’s O’Grady’s role in the team , which is to hold up the ball , slow down the play and stop midfield and defence being overrun.

    Not really going overboard, just making a general observation, but the lack of desire team to try and get the decisive goal is worrying , we needed someone to step up to the mark and stick their head in were it hurts and today no one was willing to do that
  6. mad4it
    Had we decided to go for broke, instead of trying to defend ( time wasting cost us today) a 1-0 lead, we would have sat , 4 points off the play offs with a game in hand

    It’s a game we should win by 2 or 3 goals, but we should have won today by 2 or 3 goals and not sure why we decided to sit deep in the second half . Hopefully the Lacovitti and Afolayan will be fit for Tuesday, which will give Scholes s few more options
  8. mad4it
    That’s because we sat too deep and didn’t close them down and started hitting hopeful ball towards O’Grady and expecting him to win them , the state of the pitch also didn’t help, ... on this evidence Scholes has got his work cut out
  9. mad4it
    I’m sure that 2 months on the naughty step hasn’t helped and neither has playing and did playing at right back when his natural position is on the left
  10. mad4it
    Probably not O’Grady’s best game, but we lost it (again) in midfield , we just can’t hold the ball and defence ends up getting swamped
  11. mad4it
    See Chris O’Grady’s the scapegoat again, perhaps if branger decide to pass 1st time instead of f..king about, we would have to hang on by wasting time ?

    It was a typing error should have said George Washington quite famous quote really , but I’m sure the British force he defeated at Princeton and Yorktown thought (as you suggest) that he was a c..t !
  13. mad4it
    Orwell is not the only one with views the rights and wrongs of swearing . George Washington wrote “The foolish and wicked practice of profane cursing and swearing ... is a vice mean and low, without any temptation , that any man of sense and character detests and despises it”

    Yes very strange, I foolish believed that this was message board we’re fans could express their opinions and concerns , little did I expect the thought police to be so prevalent ... “it was a bright cold day in April , and the clocks were striking 13”
  15. mad4it
    Ooh aren’t we all gown up using all them grown up word, I would never dream of call anyone a c..t whether in jest or not ... thank goodness you’re longer on the trust
  16. mad4it
    I’m not amused, but here one that will have you and your mate rolling in the aisles ... why did tigger put his head down the toilet .... he was looking for pooh
  17. mad4it
    Yes would imagine so, after all they do say small things amuse small minds
  18. mad4it
    Definitely, my 14 year old son uses words like c..t , t..t, w....r , b.....d , don’t know we’re he gets it from... guess he’d been reading this message board
  19. mad4it
    And developing a sense of respect for other supporters of the club and their opinions wouldn’t go amiss either
  20. mad4it
    What respect our trust representatives towards the club..
  21. mad4it
    No that simply really , but I’ll put in simple terms so you can understand . 1. Trust hold Q&A meeting with landlord 2. Landlord by the way we are selling the land for £6m. 3. Trust says funny you should say that my mate has got a spare £6m 4. Landlord so what does you mate expect to gain from this . 5 Trust nothing
  22. mad4it
    The North Stand and cost of building it wasn’t included in the original price, so that will take it close to the £6m they are asking . My concern is that the trust had a meeting with brass bank on Monday and as if by magic they pull a rabbit (or rabbits) with a spare £6m to invest in the purchase of the the land - apparently, a rabbit that doesn’t expect a return on their investment - smell I little like Grimsby docks to me
  23. mad4it
    Interesting enough, Sean Fielding recently announced that Oldham was releasing some of its green belt land , and some brown field land to Greater Manchester Coucil to enable the house build targets set by the government, so I’d say that the land now holds its orginal value . As cup runs they have been few and far between over recent years , and any money generated from them would have gone to reduce the clubs debts ... think you’re mistaking blitz and gazal with the Glaziers at Man U ?
  24. mad4it
    Absolutely, but as the the economy has recovered, I guess the land is worth at least what they paid for it . The problem is that we are hearing rumours of mystery benefactors and (I for one) are suspicious of their intentions . The safety way to safeguard the future of the ground is to sell / buy the land in small plots, with the binding agreement that the land can’t be sold without the prior agreement of all the other plot / land owners .
  25. mad4it
    What money ? Other than a couple of dozen houses, they haven’t had made a great deal. Can see how it’s weird, they landlords want to (at least ) break even on the money they invested - don’t know anyone that invests to lose money ?
