The ground only had three sides when we played Everton. Capacity was around 10,600 at that time.

Phil Brown has shown interest in the gig at least a couple of times before but I suspect he would want a bit of a budget to work with, like many of the other potential candidates. He was in the running for the job before LJ got the nod but wanted a fair wedge as a bonus for avoiding relegation hence why Corney turned to LJ. And I too would take him over the likes of Clark and Coyle.- 3,870 replies

Didn’t realise the dazzler was appointed in early May. Always thought it was later on in the summer (mid June around fixture release time) as I seem to remember him not having the foggiest that we playing Walsall away in our opening fixture and looking a bit stupid in a press conference.- 3,870 replies

Quick search on wiki says he currently manages in the French 7th Division so he’ll have a good knowledge of Marco’s potential summer signings.- 3,870 replies

Yes that’s correct, against Portsmouth. It was a few days after the oystons had lost their high court battle. -
Chron: AL says Latics could leave BP

It’s fairly common knowledge (and has been for many years) that the club and stadium are owned by different companies. It doesn’t take a lawyer or accountant to find that info out. If he did think he was getting the stadium included in the purchase price then he is incredibly naive and Corney has well and truly pulled his trousers down. -
Same here but I know that the Vale fans have had grievances with their chairman/owner for quite a few years now. It’s not something recent that has triggered this.

It would all depend on how the clause was worded and crucially would also hinge on Brentford inserting a sell on clause when he was sold to Burnley. So theoretically we would have been in line for ?20% of Brentford’s cut. A few years ago, Dale received about £100k IIRC when Rickie Lambert joined Liverpool as Bristol Rovers (who signed him from Dale) had also inserted a sell on clause when he’d joined Southampton. Anyway we’ll never know, thanks Simon.

Carabao Cup-League Cup

They equaled the record a few years back, also against West Ham oddly enough. Didn’t expect it to be surpassed though. -

After having a quick glance at their message board things aren’t good at Vale. There was a lot of negativity and resentment towards Aspin before today’s game.

The club wouldn’t have the asset strippers as landlords for a start. OMBC were the landlords at the time and the club had a ten year period to buy the land back at the same price OMBC paid for it. If we’d had set up as a Phoenix club and risen through the leagues we may have had the scope to buy it back ourselves. All hypothetical mind.

Ex players and that
johnafoafc replied to razza699's topic in The opinions4u Terraces - Latics Forum
We had Rachubka as first choice at the time and he was in good form. Was under the impression Etheridge was here on a short term contract. I’m sure LJ said at the time that he wanted to keep him for longer but surprisingly money was tight and had to be used elsewhere. -

Am I right in thinking he was once on our books as a kid? Before going to Dale?
