With what seems to be a brilliant busy January transfer window at Latics this month, getting rid of the unwanted players off the wage bill and getting in new, better players, is this the best January transfer window we've ever had? I'd say so.
What have been your highlights in the past? And the worst ones. This could be players leaving being good or players going being good too!

Maybe the minority of scrapping Burnley and Tics blue wkd drinking fans have ruined it
They didn't even have to make a decision due to all the other clubs being bigger, 5 out of 6 Premiership, us league one. If they kept it bigger, then they might have had to kick us out, but suppose we will never know as they can always use this excuse.
Got this email from them, pretty much confirms it, albeit with a different and sort of understandable reason
:"Thanks for your email David – the football off season is now much shorter than it used to be and hence there is only room in Sky’s scheduling for the 6 heats not 8 (plus Sky have a much heavier focus on cricket than they used to) – not our decision!! Teams are to be confirmed but I would imagine without a scheduled Manchester event, Oldham are unlikely to feature in 2011.
We fully appreciate there is a demand from all Latics fans to be a apart our Masters Cup again and we hope we can accommodate you and them in the future.
All the Best David.
Regards
Adam"

Had a look on the masters website, and there are again only 6 regional events not 8 as in previous years. So last years story about downsizing due to the World Cup was b0110cks.
With this in mind, I doubt they will find room for little Latics. And forget the trouble at 2009 etc!
Last year north west was City, United, Bolton, Blackburn, Stoke, Leeds, and doubt they will bump one of them for us.

Is that maximum of 5 in the whole squad or just 5 in the matchday squad?
I think we had 7 at one point at end of Shez's reign, sure it's 5 in match squad. Remember Kabba or Hines had to sit out IIRC.

You are wrong. He is 7th. The green arrow means he has moved up and is now in 7th place. 1155 is his total points.
Click on 'overall leaders' and you will see big Dave in 7th
D'oh! Nothing like correcting someone and being corrected!

On the fantasyleague.com game there's a team called ' Oldham Athletic ' in the top 100. Can't remember the person's username. Anyone on here?
Don't mean to pick but he's actually 1155th, he moved up 7 places last week.
I came 48th a few years back, and was briefly near the top!

Just watched the Dvd, very good, recommend buying it if anyone is in two minds about getting it
On Part 2, for bonus content, maybe the highlights from the Man City FA Cup game when we beat them 1-0?
Doubt it. City game was on DVD, Everton game wasn't. Still have it.

If the Hartlepool game is off, and the Dale game is on, have we ever played back to back league fixtures against the same team?
Awaits detailed Prozac response....

Whats tricky Ricky doing these days?
Living in Peel on the IOM, drinking in the Whitestone pub there most days! He's a physio too. Was managing the local team until end of last season when he had a falling out with the club.
-
How about something like this to help out? I know we aren't as bad as them, but many fear it's just round the corner...

The link on the home page: BIG NIGHT FOR SCHOOLBOYS: Cooper, Sutherland.
Anyone else read that and imagine Mr. Gilbert saying it on the Imbetweeners??
If you don't watch it you need not reply!

Option 4. It doesn't matter, we will already be automatically promoted by 28th April!
-
I saw that too! Christ Taylor, classic. I also like that Evina can play 'full back of midfield', which is an interesting position.
That Santa Team Card article is messed up too with the alignment, he just copies and pastes, he could at least change the font!
Bring back Ackey, all is forgiven! Not that we have to forgive you for anything

That photo in the article does his fatty reputation no favours, licking his lips an all.
Sometimes photos just shouldn't be posted for certain articles. When Bramble got arrested, I saw this photo in the article and thought he must be guilty!!
Sorry to bring that up it just reminded me of my reaction to the photo!

He's on about Carlisle me thinks!
Ah yes, now I re read it makes more sense!
-
keith hill says the players can pick the team to play latics on saturday.
he and his assistant wont be at the match.
he wasnt happy with the point at carlisle. interesting.
i think we would take a point there, our bogey team.
How can they be our Bogey team, we've not played them in the league for over 30 years?
-
Also when we played Bolton at Burnden Park and Mark Allott scored on his debut. 3-0 down, restricted view, right at the end my dad tells me to pick up my programme from under my seat, and missed the goal!!
-
As mentioned, Rochdale, flying over to the Isle of Man on my birthday, with my girlfriend for her first ever footy match! Hope the next one isn't cancelled!!
Also although obviously great day, only got to the City 1-0 Vernon match just before half time. Was supposed to be getting the fast boat over to Liverpool, but got moved to the heavier boat to Heysham due to the high winds. Seen on the telly on the boat reporter at BP saying match is in danger of being called off due to advertising boards being blown off or something IIRC.
Got to Heysham about 30 mins before kick off, had to pay for a taxi straight to ground. Heard about the goal via text and on the radio!
