    I don't get any sense of urgency from anybody, 3 year contract for a manager, must be a rarity at this level but after Unsworth did it send out the right message?

     

    FA Trophy, great opportunity to get to at least a semi final when you see how the draw opened up, just brushed off as irrelevant.

     

    Hope, Reid, players you would assume are on decent money, basically isolated, nobody seems to be questioning it.

     

    It all just seems a bit cosy.

    It’s not cosy.

    I still can't get over him effectively saying he couldn't coach players to keep possession better, alarm bells should be ringing in the boardroom.

    I’d say he’s overachieving with this shower, 3rd in the form league still and in still in the playoffs.


    I know for a fact the board are happy with him.

    I get that people are desperate for some success and desperate to big up Mellon's track record as an indicator he'll do the same for us but this style just isn't going to work at Oldham, not medium/long term anyway.

     

    You'd have thought the Royles would be more switched on to what was needed but it appears not

    Thought you’d turn up with your usual.

    It's been blown up out of all proportion for me - so he said 'What the Fuck are we doing here?' when asked to come in on Xmas day - hardly an earth shattering crime is it? He was disciplined but should be brought back in to the first team squad - Melon is overreacting in my opinion and it’s costing the team.

     

    The point people are missing that he was on a verbal warning by the club for social media posts. 
     

    He didn’t learn so got a final written warning.

     

    You can’t have a player thinking he’s above the club. He also did the recording in the dressing room with not many other players knowing what he was doing.

    Reid situation needs sorting, especially if Dallas and Norwood continue to be unavailable, laughable that a proven goalscorer is languishing in exile without explanation, journos really need to be pushing Mellon harder on this.

    He’s hardly doing himself any favours posting about being on the lash on Friday night.  If he was the ultimate professional trying to get back in the team he should have been at Maidenhead watching the team. Sit near Susan from the Oldham Times, clap the goals, show you give a shit. Let the media see you are there.

    Fairly confident Sharp said he was no better than what we had.

     

    Probably a reason why his only managerial job after us was at Bangor.

     

    Didn't he break his leg in a friendly? Then Dale took the chance on him that we passed on.

     

     

    To add to the list Ian Moore was virtually done until his Dad rang him.

    I don’t think it was a leg break but we didn’t pursue him. I think we would have been on the end of a playoff win with him at the club.

    He’s a dick, so don’t get me wrong.

     

    But I think you are being a bit harsh considering he’s won POTS in this league twice. 
     

    Doesn’t make up for being a twat mind. 

    Apparently,  Peter Clarke put him in his place for his un professional behaviour towards other team members.
