The Blue Real

I think it could just be Sheridan keeping his cards close to his chest!!!

He does not like to give anything away!!!

I'm not sure he had another season in him, he really struggled towards the end of last season.

He did a good job for us though and good luck to him.

I think he would have been worth a 12 month deal, but living in Norfolk he may have not wanted to carry on

doing the traveling all week,

Hope he does well in his coaching qualifications

This is a really big signing for the super blues,

Just hope we can keep hold of him after the 1st of Jan.

Wellens who????

Full time 2-2

 

Goodnight from Sav Stelling,OWTB online commentary

Thanks for all the updates on the game, very much appreciated!!!

2-2 Smalley

we are going to win 3-2!!!

We will score one more than you!!!

Its all ways best to have the problems in pre season so it

give you chance to work on for the start of the season.

Come the 10th of Aug im sure will we have it all in full working order!!!

1-1 Davis

Just hope its first of many for us this season!!!!

Sheridan to open talk with him next week over a deal!!!

So after many arguements (mainly between me and Fin about selling Neal Eardley) i have decided to pose the question.

 

Are full backs useful in the modern game?

 

I believe that they support the wingers, the over-lap is a very good technique to use, while I like a solid defence i think that having 6 players in a team involved in an attack rather than just 3 or 4 is brilliant.

 

The argument (well ok, discussion) between me and Fin basically had two points of view.

 

One - Sell up, full backs are useless in this division.(Fin's)

 

the other - full backs are crucial (see all points above - thats my opinion btw )

Thoughts?

Yes full backs are useful in the morden game, but if you have got your full back over lapping

you will need to have your winger to drop back to cover where he has left a gap at the back or your

full back has to be quick to be able to get back in place!!!!

Is it a stadium in France?

Final Score 2-1

 

JP and young Lewis

 

Young guns impressed by all accounts, JP looked the business but it was all about the fitness of the players some fans were told by the coaching staff

Withgame like this its all ways been about just getting your match fitness up

think we have got it right going up in class after each game.

Bring on Rochdale on Tuesday now!!!

Lewis Alexandra just made it 2-1

 

Think JP scored 1st

We back on track now he has gone from 4 5 1 to 4 4 2!!!

now 1-1

 

JP is having a great game

Who got are first goal of pre season?

Im sure it will all come good in 3 weeks time

when we play Swansea!!!!

A true Latics Legend

R.I.P.

Would be brilliant to have him back,

He was a good player when we had him 3 season back

just think what he will be like now,

Think we will get him on loan with a view to a permanent deal.

Come the end of the season.

think it will be crossley, but by the end of the season, pogs will be back to number one, gut feeling

Crossley will be number 1 keeper

Shez give it away by giving him the Number one shirt off

Pogs Back!!!!

21-0 in votes just hope Pogs does not see this or it

will dent him confidence even more!!!!!

I know its early, but its good to see where people think we'll finish.

I have gone for playoffs as we need to see how

well the team will gel together but am sure they

will get it all sorted out

But could see us playoffs /Automatic it all depends

on how we do for players get injured!!!

Go in the clayton green before the game!!

To have a pint or two in plastic glass but

all ways a good atmos!!!!

I think we could have a season where we

have 4 or 5 players scoring 15+ goal's coming

from all over the team!!!

Just like the season we won the league!!!

For top scorer this season will go for Davies!!

underwhelmed! why? Surely you didn't believe the rumours of Scholes', Cole and Yorke!!

Only slightly better options than Chris Hall!!! Michael Palin would have give us better options up front than Chris Hall... never mind Michael Ricketts!!!

But yes if fit a very different option and imo like Hughes, could be fantastic for the club next year! or not!?!?

I think this could be a very good signing for us and with

loads of choice up front

but i still think that we need a left back, winger, center midfield and an other forward.

really looking forward to the start of the season now only 4 weks on saturday!!!!

It's interesting ( maybe ) that the online version of the Chron is still at Friday sport. Makes you wonder if they know something is in the offing and are holding fire.

 

Just a thought to post, makes a change from hitting refresh.

The e-chron has been updated!!

Does not give any clues for who it could be!!!!

They are doing the same!!

Making us wait all day!!

Can't see it being fowler. Thought l read at the weekend that he'd been offered £22,000.00 a week by some club .... might have been Cardiff

Dont think it will be myself!!!

Going to get my season ticket in a few mins

will ask at the ticket office for any clues!!

Busy afternoon for my F5 button!!!!

Here we go again ..... many happy hours of pressing the refresh button

Who do you think the striker could be???

Robbie Fowler??
