  1. Whats my private life got anything to do with it. ? It beats working 9-5 in a dead end job. That credit crunch must be hurting,and then theres council tax to pay,tv licence,road tax etc...hmm we dont get any of that over here. I just earn 250euros a night on the bingo takings whilst enjoying the sunshine so i can really put up with the Benidorm remarks... Beats living in the uk at the moment.

  2. If you join Latics world you'll be able to see it. It's only 36quid a year and 4quid less than the Leed's one and you'll be able to watch the other 52% of sat's highlights on it because it seems the current one you used only showed 48% of the game.

     

    so for 4quid less you'll get 4% more ... what a bargin.

     

     

    Well I get my 20min clip within the hour of the match. Deffo worth the extra 4 quid IMHO

  3. So, having tried and failed to convince us that 'outplaying' Oldham was somehow vitally important (despite, as you may recall, managing a paltry one meaningful shot on target all game), you're now trying to convince us that the quality of goals is important? They still only count one you know.

     

     

    Nah

    .

    The simple point being we have more quality finishers than you.

    Simple

     

    44 games to go. I know which long term fire power i'd rather have in my team.

     

    Take your miserable 3 points. Ill have my firepower thanks for the next 9 mths.

  4. What I thought of the game?

     

    I thought we played woeful. That back 4 defence were second to none last season hence our many clean sheets but Saturday was just one of those bad days. We have played fantastic in pre season and Beckford has already bagged 8 goals in july/August. When the team as a whole isnt playing well it also affects individual performances as you well know.

    By no means am I concerned about how the team will perform over the next nine months as I know they will be back winning again.We have the quality in the team.

     

    Hughes may have been in the premiership but now he is not a patch on Beckford, infact the Oddschecker have put Showunmi and Becchio much further up the ladder than Hughes so I do know Beckford will score between 20 and 25 goals this season, Andy Robinson scored 10 last season more than some strikers so ive no doubt the firepower is second to none.

     

    Mid table or playoffs is not an option.

     

    Ps I still want links to your striker's goals from last season

  5. Whilst you prefer to add back in the 15 points, you fail to undersatnd that you started with those 15 points deducted for a reason (just as Luton, Rotherham and Bournemouth have this season) and that is that you failed to exit administartion in a way approved by the league. A rule that applies to all clubs now and Papa Smurf deliberatly went down this route knowing full well what the implications were. He then had the cheek to take the matter to court/arbitration. If you had exited administration in the way approved by the league, you would not have had as big a budget last season, as you would have had to pay back more of the debt, and therefore unlikely to have had the squad you did. So We will never know if the squad you would have had would have been good enough to have got those 91 points. Anyway it doesn't really matter now does it because like Satrudays result the history books will show you as being in division 3 in season 2008-09.

     

    But there again don't let the facts get in the way of your statistics and moving goalposts.

     

    "I have so much confidence in our players to claim top 2." Is that the same confidence you had that you would "rip us apart tomorrow" ?

     

    "The chmpionship is just as hard" Really so the teams coming down from the premiership with their 2 year parachute payments are not at an advantage? The stats do not back that up (and we all know how you like your stats.) Go back over the last 10 years and see how many teams have gone back up to the premiership from the Championship compared to teams going back up to the Championship from league 1. I'll leave Prozac to fill in the details on that one.

     

    Cheers,

    Harry.

    P.S. 100 posts yipeeeeeeeeeee. Diego here I come. I'll beat you to 7,000 posts :wink:

     

    Oh Harry did we really need a lecture on how we managed to get the 15 points. I think everyone knows FFS!!!

     

    Teams coming down do have parachute money yes you are correct so it is a good job that Leeds have more money to spend in league one. Works on the same principle.

    Beckford is the best striker in league one and was wanted by championship/lower prem teams.

    Kilkenny is an australian international

    Ankergren was one of the better goal keepers in the championship

    Marques is an Angolian International

    Lubo was brought in from Premier league Bolton and was a regular for them

    Huntington is a highly regarded Newcastle Youth (ask anyone on the Toon forum about him)

    Fabien Delph under 18 England International

    Douglas, Republic of Ireland International

    Andy Robinson, Without a doubt the best winger in league one last season,played for Swansea but opted to stay in league one for Leeds rather than play in the level above.

     

     

    Compare that to what you have. your best Vs Beckford. Lets see who gets the most.

     

    Oh and here are a couple of little tempters of our best striker in action

     

    When youve watched the 2 clips will you please post me a youtube video of your best striker's goals???????????????????????

     

    I bet no one will post ANYTHING!!!! GUARANTEED!!!!!!!

    and here

     

     

     

     

    Post yours please..im waiting.

  6. Im bored of this lower league banter. You havent really given any valid points and you are so sad keeping this thread alive as long as it has done. Obviously there is nothing else to talk about,transfers,upcoming games, JPT, Carling cup rounds etc. You just keep festering on the win on saturday. Like I said before good for you. Its a big thing beating Leeds United. I would be happy too.

    Oldham are the best and they are going up infact Oldham are the best team in Greater manchester.

     

    Ill leave you to your sad little lives.

    Mod, you have my permission to ban me. I didnt realise how sad league one forums really are.

    Im looking forward til the end of the season to say goodbye properly.

     

    How sad you lot really are.!!!!!

  7. "Leeds are on immense form this season. We haven't lost one game starting the pre season and Jermaine Beckford is on fire. Ok we beat Chester who had also been beaten 6-0 by Dag but the quality of Beckfords goals have stirred up discussion not only in the championship but by premierleague fans too(check the MAD boards out).

    We have now the best team in the league, we play passing football as opposed to Dennis Wise's hoofball and we are looking very good.

    I cant wait for us to rip you apart tomorrow.

     

    My verdict

     

    Leeds United 4 Oldham 0"

    Above is your first post on this thread.

     

    No mention of winning the league is what it is all about.

     

    "I cant wait for us to rip you apart tomorrow." PMSL

     

    "Man Utd only drew at home on Sunday so does that mean they will end up around mid table by the end of the season?? No, they will come first or second. I really dont think Man Utd are worried just yet and Neither are Leeds."

     

    Yes but you are no Man U. You are in the third tier of English football just like us, because you have twice been relgated, because quite simply, you were not good enough.

     

    The team you have now may well be decent at this level (and may well be promoted at the end of the season), but so were Sheff Wednesday and Forest, but it still took them 2 and 3 years to get out of this competetive division, because despite thier big gates and big budgets, this league is no walk over and you have to earn the right to promotion by your performances on the pitch over 46 games

     

    Cheers,

    Harry

     

     

    But Harry didnt we win enough points last season to grab second spot?? Forget the 15 points for a minute.If it wasnt for them Forest or Doncaster would still be in this league.

    Our acheivement BEFORE our deduction was to win enough points to get promoted. We won enough points to get promoted first time round.

    I have so much confidence in our players to claim top 2. The chmpionship is just as hard but it took Birmingham one season to get back up and West Brom 2 seasons.

    You have been stuck in this rut for 11 years. We wont be.

  8. did you compare leeds to man utd? hahahahahahahahaha

     

    man utd didnt lose at home though did they

     

    they will finish 1st or 2nd, they always do

     

    as for you, you dont, you have already lost at home this season

     

    you will be there or there abouts but so will we, be a little more respectful to your opponent s this season because i have a funny feeling you will have to go through this all again with other clubs who dont fear you.

     

    leeds are not that good and are not certain to win anything

     

    face facts the BETTER TEAM ON THE DAY WON

     

    Palmer I think that last comment is the most sensible thing anyone has said on here (apart from me of course)

     

    The better team ON THE DAY won.

     

    ON THE DAY!!! Exactly.!! Keep that up for another 9 months. :titanic:

  9. Yes Yes Yes Harry!!!

     

    Its about winning the league and the quote of the day AGAIN is.

    I would rather have my team for the next 44 than yours.

     

    You had a laugh. Let's see who has the last laugh.

    Fear not I will remember to have that laugh but next time I will learn not to jump the gun.

    Patience is a virtue.

     

    Cant wait!!

     

    Ps when was the last time Oldham won 91 points in league one? We can do it first time round. How about you?

  10. LISTEN!! Here is how it is.

     

     

    We outplayed you, you outplayed us, we beat you, you beat us blah blah blah is now going around in circles and getting rather boring.

     

    You beat Leeds. Congratulations. Lets all move on from it. At the end of the day its who is going to win the league and who is going to get promoted. You think what you want and you think that because Leeds played poor they will continue to play poor for 44 more games.??? Man Utd only drew at home on Sunday so does that mean they will end up around mid table by the end of the season?? No, they will come first or second. I really dont think Man Utd are worried just yet and Neither are Leeds. We are still clear favourites to win the league and at the end of the day I would rather have my team for the next 44 games than your team. And that its what it is going to boil down to, not one stupid defeat for us and a win for you.!!!!

  11. Stop moving away from the issue, or are you going to edit your post to suit?

     

    EDIT:

     

    Okay, you watched the game via the Matchconsole - I take it it's the BBC one, I'm not sure - anyway, the console is about as much use as a wet match. You're getting information that's passed through about four elements before you read it on screen. The only things they can completely guarantee is the scoreline, which in this instance was two nil to Latics. There have been fans from both sides whoi witnessed the game first hand, and they both concur - Oldham deserved their goals - Oldham played outstandingly, and Oldham were worthy winners. Face it Leeds were undone in their own back yard, by a team you written off some time before. Now you're hiding behind some dodgy stat you've read off Teletext.

     

    Match console is owned by premiumtv.co.uk which owns 95% of clubs official websites including Oldham, NOT the BBC.

    They are accurate, very accurate!!!
