its true I read them it said never again whats the quickest way out of here I must remember to switch my phone off

I must go to specsavers I will call the home for the bewildered when I can remember where I live so they can carry me off being a Latics fan for 62 years may count in my defence

I started watching the Latics in 1953 I was convinced we used to have a blue and white quartered shirt like Blackburn and Bristol rovers but perhaps my memory playing tricks on me does anyone else remember it if not I will surrender myself to the home for the bewildered.

Sorry it was in the penalty box it was a dead ball kick

A goalkeeper taking a free kick his left foot slides on the greasy surface touches the ball he then kicks it out with his right foot what would your decision be. I saw it happen tonight on tv viewers of Qpr v Man city match do not answer for a while you are watching the match. Its the first time I have seen it done in 60 years of watching football. get your thinking caps on

With those assets we would think hes from the other side and put the wrong shirt on and I bet he couldn't drive the team coach

I blame the chairman

Typical give the manager an extended contract and we lose our nil one outcome score line how can we do a prediction now it was easy before should leave well alone why make things complicated.

I saw Latics play Accrington Stanley in the 50s/60s they had 10 Scotsmen in the team like you say we have some good ones over the years

With our luck a woman in our chippie says Messie and Ronaldo could be signing for us I hope not, ones very left footed and the other is no spring chicken I know they like a challenge but are they ready for this one.

I wonder if his mate Brahms will go as well

If we got some real money for him we could order more pies and a lawnmower all our problems solved

With our luck it will be that messie chap from Barcalona, too me hes to left footed unless P.D. can get him to use both feet. Source a woman that works in our chip shop her dog knows a cat that fancies his budgie so it must be true.

What happened when uncle Joe left for Everton does that answer your question not that P.D. is as good but he certainly has the potential to become a very good manager given time and a bit of luck thats if we can keep him long enough.

With our luck we would would get a swap for that Messie chap very overrated hes too left footed and I bet he cannot play in goal either plus a couple of mars bars.

That'd be the football team then...

time machine theres only one for me Bobby Johnstone he was past his best when he came to us but he was worth the addmission fee alone he was sheer magic and your grandad was right if we could have his talent now he was a centre forwards dream player Bert Lister would vouch for that.

Thanks for that info not a bad forward line I must be getting confused but after being a Latics fan since 1953 I deserve a bit of sympathy or perhaps a lot of treatment,I must keep taking the tablets once again thanks.

I was at that match I think it was a defender named Taylor that scored for us but it was disallowed because when he shot he burst the ball and they had a bounce ball where he shot from that was at the open end to the right of the main stand. it was a great match though.

Can anyone remember us playing Liverpool in the FA CUP at Boundary park it must have been late 50s or early 60s I think we lost 2-1 or 3-1 they had a great team then I stood behind the goal at the open end as it was then,I remember us scoring but it was not given because Taylor a defender burst the ball when he shot that would have put us level at 2-2 the place was packed that day, though we lost we did ourselves proud good old days.

It must be costing us a fortune employing a full time first aid bloke for Chris Taylor, can we not get the rest of the players to just pull their toungue out at him instead, save us some money.

INSIDE INFORMATION a woman in our chippy says its Miss Jones,why not she was good in Rising Damp,the sauce was on the counter. Ill get my coat.

My first match was in 1953 2nd div I remember Billy Naylor playing alongside G Hardwick also we had a right half called J Thomson can anyone remember the rest of the team then without looking it up.

It were all fields behind t'Broadway stand in them days.

A really good right half scored some good goals for Oldham agreed he had some shot on him scored quite a few from outside the area, a class above our level a pleasure to watch RIP.
