  1. Bloody hell, Lee Sinnott. That guy makes Ian Roper look a world class cultured defender! God we've had some crap players over the last decade.
  2. 450 Oldham there on Saturday. Will hopefully be proved wrong.
  3. 3-2 away at Hull City in the FA cup. Class Sheridan free kick. "3-2 to the Taliban"
  4. I'd love any of our players to be top scorer. Not going to happen with how were playing-long ball wise. And the service they are getting from the midfield.
  5. Don't think he did much on Saturday. Can only be as good as the service to him, which was absolutely dire.
  6. Difference was last year we were playing decent football with no one to stick it in the net, sometimes over passing it. This season we have barely strung 5 passes together... and our defence has looked about as strong as a Sunday Leagues side back four. Playing people in their right positions and utilizing the talents of our strikers rather than just whacking it up to them and expecting them to do something will probably be a start. No chance Sheridan should go, he will get it right. We saw it at Burnley.. apart from the crap finishing we outplayed them for long periods.
  7. Woah woah woah! I was being sarcastic with that list of managers. Bloody hell even Ronald Moore was better than the majority of that list. Still in full support of Sheridan, only 5 games in. Apart from infront of goal, I thought we'd clicked at Burnley, its obvious we have the ability.. it's just not happening at the minute. Thompson at Right back was baffling though, the guys off form, playing him out of position isn't going to do him or the team any favours!
  8. Bring back Mick Wadsworth, Neil Warnock, Brian Talbot, Graeme Sharpe! Bar the odd hint of glory (last season and the Dowie season), I've only witnessed complete dross. I envy you buggers who were around and remember the pinch me years!!
  9. The fact that players are being played out of position isn't helping. Thompson at right back? When we have a perfectly capable right back in Eardley on the bench.. can't have been because Neal was tired, as he was sat on his arse in the stands for Wales game against Slovakia. Too much hoof, not enough creativity.
  10. Gregan obviously has it he showed it last year with his form when he first joined us, when he gets to somewhere near that level of performance, the team will benefit greatly and it will show with an improvements in results.
  11. No balance in the side, we have a left back who's obviously uncomfortable there and can't defend, but has pace and likes to burst forward so could do a job on the left wing and play Lomax/Giddings(if he comes back) at left back. Switch Taylor over to the right- his favoured flank and would probably see an upturn in form, and as OldhamSheridan (I think) said, Liddells legs have gone. Sure Sheridan will sort it. One plus point from today and Burnley, McDonald is gradually coming back to the form he showed at the start of last season which is encouraging, but goes awol during games-then again if could perform for 90 minutes he wouldn't be at Oldham Athletic. Kalala did alrite today, and Allott did well when he came on- hardly ever gives the ball away cheaply, and was about the only one to put a decent tackle in during the second half.
  12. Crossley doesn't fill me with confidence, but then neither do the slow noobs at the back and a left winger playing at left back. Someone made a point on the coach today.. since 1997 Crossley has played I think he said 36 times.. so going off that Pogs will get his chance soon enough.
  13. That McLean at Peterborough who I think they signed from Grays, looks like he could play at a higher level.
  14. Maybe that might be due to playing alongside poor players who don't read his runs, cant deliver a decent final ball and dont read his fancy one touch lay offs. Certainly has been the case here at times.
  15. How many are turning up today? Looks like we could have 20 a-side.
  16. Burnley will probably bring Andy Payton out of retirement for this one.. somehow he'd probably still manage to score!
  17. LOL! sorry, that was really aimed at Chickers, who ended up not going to this years Beer Walk type effort. I'd be up for that pub crawl but definitley reduce the amount of pubs! For us lightweights.
  18. Should have just done the High Crompton beer walk!
  19. Davies the best signing so far.. only comparisson to Warne is that he chases the lost causes, he has everything that Warne didnt.. Strength, Pace and an End Product. Impressed with Allott and Kalala break the play up well and play the simple ball, both would be a perfect partner to Kilkenny in midfield if he ever arrives!!
  20. When do the council ever listen to what local residents think though? The woods near me is being built on despite having about 500 people against the development. I hope residents are ignored in this case!
  21. Me Clougal (Put him down for a seat for the moment, txt messages take a while to get to bloody Detroit by the looks of things!) Danny and his Missus. I'll let Rocky confirm Tivvy, Kemp and Amie and that lot. And Chickers, there better be a good reason why your not on this bus. ie You need to save your money as your after buyin Waynes Car.
