  1. Make Saturday a big thank you to Mr wild instead, latics fan who has had the balls to step up and be counted when all around him was in chaos. Send him off in style knowing that a new era will begin next week. He will still be part of the club but from a safer position for his own security. Be the 12th man and push the team over the line. I'm sure he would really love to step down in style ready for his hand over to scholes. I'm sure if the scholes thing wasn't a goer it would have been leaked or quashed by now. Let scholes prepare us for utd in the 5th round.
  2. But some would rather look at why he would fail rather than why he would succeed. A sad current state of society. Too many people focus on the negatives and not the positives.
  3. Too many people over thinking. Most fans would like scholes. I've not seen anything to suggest he won't be our next manager. If it doesn't happen then we move on. This club does seem to drag things out which in turns causes negative thoughts among fans. I'm positive there will be some news today.
  4. Have to agree. Gifted players need good switched on players around them, Maouche and Baxter esp. They see things poor plays don't and this can make it appear they have misplaced a pass etc.
  5. There is a minority on here who are either just, childish, wind up merchants, devoid of football knowledge or sense, ignorant or all of these. I just skip their posts, not worth my valuable time to read such shite. 99% of folk on here give balanced and interesting opinions. They make the board worth reading and if you ever look at other clubs forums, ours is up there with the best. Come on scholesy, if true !!
  6. Let's face it, if he is announced and we are not promoted by the end of the week it will have been the wrong decision by AL. Scholes will be gone within 6 months and we'll be the new Orient, again.
  7. Also sets us up for Man United in FA Cup 5th round It's written in the stars
  8. How long b4 some news source calls us Oldham United haaa It's coming !!!
  9. For every United fan hoping he fails there will be another 1000 wishing him well. Any Oldham fan against scholes because he is a United legend needs to really grow up and stop embarrassing themselves.
  10. Good post Midsblue. This is much more than just a new manager. We all need to appreciate things are about to change. I hope and pray it works out for all of us because there will be those wanting him to fail sadly
  11. Over 100yrs of foundations waiting for somebody to come in and fix the subsidence. I thought Bunn was bringing that stability and settling things down. Scholes coming in is exciting and any fan who thinks or says otherwise needs to look back at the last 20 odd years, because this lad could do much better than us in reality, look at Lampard and Gerrard. If it is true I would imagine there will be more investment from somewhere, whether he can bring that or AL can bring that with of a top world class footballer at the healm. We have to admit things will change with scholes here, we will become talked about again and followed by people who have forgotten we exist. Scholes has investment in Salford, he is already a wealthy lad but I'm sure his investment has quadrupled with them about to become a league club. Uncertanties remain with his Salford connections but I'm sure once here we will be his main concern. Well done AL if this is true, step back and stay behind the scenes, let scholes lift the doldrums and give him support. We fans need to accept this season may not mean promotion but the start of a new and hopefully exciting era.
  12. Clubs normally send players out on loan for their development 9 times out of 10. So yes I'm sure they have a vested interest in who will be put in charge of this development.
  13. Maybe that might work, maybe not. Just do something and put our poor souls at rest.
  14. I think that could be true. I think they probably know who it is, just not putting it out there yet. Who knows, all guess work on our behalf.
  15. It's sooo quiet, what a secretive club we are. That is until there is a sniff of scandal and then it's out there for all and sundry to feed on !!! Come on AL put us out of our misery.
  16. Have to agree but Terms may change once he has had the job a while, that's when issues may arise
  17. If I remember rightly it was in the media he had been interviewed, I know that's still not concrete evidence but it seemed widely reported at the time. Back to now I Just think of all the managers mentioned scholes would lift the club and most fans. His status as a player and now pundit is huge. No matter what anybody says he was a top top player who played in a great team and under a great manager. This doesn't mean he will make a good manager but it would be his first job and we would soon find out. I remember a young Joe Royle being a new manager. That was worth the gamble.
  18. Maybe AL would give more freedom to Scholes, otherwise it would be a stumbling block I agree
  19. Scholes was after the job when wellens got the role. He must have had things in place for that scenario, I see no reason why it would be any different now. It's a gamble whoever gets he job imo. I think Wilds head will control his heart and he won't take the job for the security of his family, he is fully aware he could end up having to leave the club if it doesn't work out. If scholes wants it, I would give it him. A big gamble that could lift the club and maybe make us a little more attractive in a way to attract players, and may be more investment, possibly a few more bums on seats too. If it doesn't work then so be it.
  20. 4000 tics to roar us into the 5th round and then man united away. We will beat Doncaster!!!!!
