It's all a big misunderstanding!!

The 'source' at the club, when asked what he was doing for lunch, was mis-heard when he said "We're getting a McDonald's son"

Thus starting 11 pages of groundless speculation!

In this era of money grabbing, self serving basturts, it'd good to see a player willing to earn less in order to prove himself at a club.

With the continual reference to Derker in this thread I suddenly can't stop thinking of Team America!

We will successfully defend a set piece.

Latics only one of nine clubs guilty of late pay, but I don't recall reading about the others.

 

The Radio Manc/Face Book/national media revelation/shock-horror reports will probably have done lasting damage, when in truth the situation was dealt with by the manager and Chairman in a caring way.

Dickov quote ""A few players did come to see me and we helped ever single one of them as we tried to take away any worries about bank charges and the like."

Looks like we've been to wonga.com!

Care to expand?

Didn't mean to cause any false worries, just quoting from Blackadder!!

("on the day his wife runs off with another mouse, taking all the cheese!")

Given that we appear to be poorer than a church mouse, that's just received an enormous tax bill, I don't think any permanent deal will be on the cards!

Another battering!

How the hell has it gone tits up so quickly?!

In a desperate attempt to avoid the in-laws boxing day get together, a Latics fan optimistically waits outside BP for the Rochdale game.

Work and home... but mostly work.

Oh crap! Must go, my boss has just come back!

Number 99 is cool

And usually a bit flakey.

not a hope in hell..... 20k would be doing well.

How can this reg plate be worth 12.5 times our recently departed top goal scorer!!

In vino veritas - In wine there is truth.

Accoring to the bury web site he's injured, went over on his ankle.....

Those stiletto heels can be a bitch to walk in.

A current Premiership manager described an ex Latics player as the strongest, quickest, most skillful player he had ever seen.

Who was he referring to ?

Alex Ferguson about Brian Kilcline?

Wahey! I'd temporarily forgotten this match with playing myself tonight!

I read this a dozen times before I got what it meant. The words myself, with and playing were all too close together!

Good result tonight, don't give a ha'penny jizz for the performance!

We tried playing 3 strikers to take it to them. It didn't work. Was a mistake in hindsight. Managers make them...we've 5 home games and a game vs basement side Stockport. I'll take that!

"I'll take that"! I'm sorry but have things got that bad that we'll accept the fact that there are 5 games out of six at home that we 'might' win in order to get us out of trouble!

I consider myself to be a very patient fan and so far have believed that the manager will come good but this current state of affairs is just not f*****g good enough!

I don't expect us to be challenging for promotion but to see us on our arse at the wrong end of the table with the manager spouting "Well, Leeds came here the other week and lost 2-0" is not acceptable!

Going to stick my neck out here and quite frankly i don't give a f/took After watching my struggling team compete, battle and at times, outplay a very strong top of the table team, who (Norwich) worked harder than any other team you will see again this season at BP, I hear the piss-pots in the stands shouting we want Penney out, makes me feckin sick tbh.

Get a grip and drink 3 pints less you tools - it's going to be hard enough as it is this season, without mindless, beer driven, emotional, uninformed chants!!

Another 12/18 months and given the chance, I hope those chants are shoved right back up your arse' with plenty of interest.

I share your sentiments, and have always believed Penney would come good even through all this crap but you have to admit that it's becoming more and more difficult to see when that will be.

Can Anyone Remember Being Really Interested?.. Nor I!

Im going for 1678 season tickets sold next season

That's a bafflingly specific number!

Didn't Birmingham have Virgin written across their shirts in the early nineties?

Talk about giving players a complex!!

I know he is on loan but his deal runs out at Millwall at the end of the season, if penney still the gaffer do you reckon we will sign him up full time for next seaon any thought please?????????

Given that he's our joint 4th top scorer after only four days, I think we'd be fools not to!!

Personally, I'm relieved. Not really sure why.

 

The first team seem to be getting closer to being all fit. Joe's hamstring twinge has sorted out. Pav must be nearer to 100%. Flahavan will be able to play. Lomax will be closer to fitness. Unlike the snow this will not affect training so they should all be sharper when we eventually get to play a game again.

 

I hope.

Trouble is, even when everyone's fit we're still crap!

It's nailed on we'll lose this game!

Sadly I also feel there is a haunting sense of inevitability about this game... easy home win.
