Yep, thought it was, the kit gave it away and for some reason the answer just popped in there! Christ i'm an anorak!!!! Oh and Olney scored 2!!!!! We lost 2-1 at Walsall the day before.......and same pre-season Nick Henry scored from the half-way line at Prenton Park, a better goal than the one at Stamford Bridge imo!

Is it Minehead? We won 4-0 shortly after the Great Escape???

Grant in net. Sorted Gary Alexander from Orient and the lad Nicky Bailey from Barnet - a mustard full back, beats players for fun and a mustard shot! And push the boat out and beg Lee Grant to come back, we need a consistent keeper and he'd be the one imo! If Wellens goes perhaps happen Thornton released by Donny a deal as I thought he had a great game at BP even though we beat them 4-0!

crap, took all of two seconds to design that one. Same white piping around the edges! Same shirt apart from the collar and the white flashes down the sides. POOH! Having said that, the mug I am I'll be parting with my dosh so It can be seen on the Costas this summer! Think I'll have Gregan on the back 'cos he's the only frigger in contract aint he!? :sign0094:

As i said, key word is 'regeneration' ply that card and we should be ok, If the development doesn't go ahead, will the last person to leave the town please turn out the lights........

I reckon the access road will run diagnol from the hospital car park we own over the waste land that incorporates Darlington Transport over the back of the Rocky and through little Wembley with an exit onto Broadway/Sheepfoot Lane, and incorporating access to the existing residential roads. It will only be a standard two lane road I reckon, taking you in and out of the ground, smaller car park and new residentail area. Will be a bit of nightmare but so is Derby, Bolton etc... one road in, one out. Tough titties NIMBY's!

Realised the soppy old git hasn't thought about little Wembley has he? We may need a small part of the Clayton car park, where the changing rooms are ( Some of this may be owned by the club anyway as the land all the way up to the first house on Sheepfoot lane is owned by the club, loads of options for an access roads! There'll be more than enough room (handy being a former QS 'aint it, And we own the access road at the side of the Clayton arms which takes you round to the car park! NIMBY's you have no chance!

Doesn't matter what you own, the council can slap a CPO on it, if they deem the building/piece of land vital to regeneration, ask the residents of Werneth and Derker, slightly different I know, but the same rules apply. Anyhow smoozing with the right peole at the highways agency will take care of that smug old git and his piece of land! Probably another reeason why Hillstone and Ian Hill are on board. A large contractor and a land and property expert.

Would've been Stam if the voting was only up until November, or Gregan if voting stopped at the end January. But for sheer effort, desire and consistency it has to be Paul Warne, he's due a goal too and I've a feeling he bag a crucial one in the next two games...............LEGEND!

When did you send it in, Paul? I emailed it first thing this morning mate, I would like to see it published!

Mr Paul Prendergast Chadderton Oldham Dear Sir, I would like to convey my exasperation at the Clayton NIMBYS, again threatening to scupper Oldham Athletic’s plans to progress. The new development is a chance to regenerate land around Boundary Park that has been a festering windswept eyesore for years. Whilst I appreciate the residents may have to venture further to walk their darling little mutts, surely this development will be for the good of the area. The land is of good quality and has real estate value, oh and if the Football Club did go out of business the paper clip counters up at the Civic Centre approved planning permission for 100’s of houses years ago when they bought the ground back off the club in the late 1990’s. Of course the ground is now owned by the club’s owners but as far as I know that planning application will still be current and binding. This development is a real chance to put Oldham on the map, the facilities will be superb for the football club, a high quality hotel which the town has a shortage of, a health club of which there are only two in the town that I deem to be of suitable standard and of course the key worker housing which will give hundreds of people the chance to purchase an affordable home. If the development doesn’t go ahead because of a few people’s short-sightedness it would be a disaster for a Football Club that has existed for 112 years, and for 100 years on its present site. The objections to this development are incandescent of the attitudes of a townsfolk that has stood by and let their town die. We’ve lost our only cinema, countless swimming pools, an architecturally superb old town hall that’s been moth-balled for years, oh and the railway warehouse fiasco….anyone got a quid!? Then of course the same Oldhamers sat back and let their Rugby club die, they gained a second chance yet still don’t support their local team. But of course the biggest travesty was the town sitting back and letting our jewel in the crown be destroyed bit by bit…..Tommyfield, a world famous landmark that has been allowed to drift into history. I suggest the Clayton Nimby’s focus their attentions on the council slowly eroding the Clayton ‘Town Green’ by the back door. Pubs and car garages ring a bell? Believe me it is only a matter of time. Concentrate on saving the Clayton dog toilet and let the rest of the land OWNED by the club be brought into the 21st Century. Yours Faithfully Mr. Paul Prendergast

I'm sure that was the 4-1 defeat to Chelsea in October '88 Stipey . I remeber 'cos the Scum were on Telly the day after v Everton - First live game of the season. Remember cacking it when it went off well I was only 11 at the time. When I realised it was Man Yoo my owd fella hads to give me a clip round the ear 'ole to prevent me joining in! As for experiences of United's 'friendliness' as I had just turned 16 and wasn't a member, when we beat them 1-0 in '93 I had to go in the Looker Rocky Road paddock - non-members, full of Scummers who threatened to bash my head in for celebrating wildly and ripping the pish out of their sad Man Yoo asses :getbent: and it was looking decidedly ropey 'til a load of my owd fellas mates appeared behind me with about 10 mins to go, so one of the super tough Mancs gobbed off again about what they were going to do to a skinny 16 year old when a couple of the lads I knew proceeded to rearrange his route canal work free of charge! Just as Craig Fleming almost made it 2-0!

As in CHRIS MOORE'S MONEY! :dozey: :hitwall1: ;)

We had this discussion on the train home on Saturday. a lot of the younger lads raved about Dowie. We were a big side under Davros, but with little flair, we tended to grind and battle our way to results based on our solid defence. There were a few highlights, such as the 6-1 v Mansfield, the wins at Derby and West Ham - but in the main we were rubbish at home. Under Sheridan we fear no one, we are very good at home and have tended to annihalate most teams at BP,then we go into their backyards and play them off the park, with many opponents stating what a good team we are; Gillingham, Swansea and Huddersfield to name a few.We can fight, scratch and battle our way to points too but for sheer passion and ability with the football this team is streets ahead.They want to be here too, not like many of the mercenaries we brought in with Moore's money. (Cough, Wijnhard, Hill, Dowie, Harbin, cough) The good old days are back and that for me is down to Shez, Tommy Wright, Dux and TP all Latics through and through, with a real affinity to the club.

Great start, but instead of building on it we went into our shell and were pretty poor for half an hour. Nicked a good goal close to half-time, then never in danger until we started the Ole's late on and giving our customary consolation away proceeding to give 700+ Latics fans bums of the squaeky variety. Plusses for me today, Wellens shooting on site, Charlton best he's been for weeks and Rocky wasn't as bad as some are making out! Oh and Ports deserves a mentioon for a brave finish. Minuses - Taylor very quiet, tightly marked but subdued and Shez not bringing Dabo on! Seriously though massive 3 points, a few rumblings of discontent from Last week around me :sign0094: but we've put that to bad with 4 out of next 6 at home, by the end of Feb' things could be really looking good. KTF

Lookers Lower , alternate between there and the Chaddy every couple of years. Like the 'Paddock' as you feel on top of the action and the unrestricted view is decent from my seat on the half-way line. Plus my lad can see better in the Lookers (or NSM!) Whilst the Chaddy will always be my spiritual home, 8) I feel there are too many incosiderate little :censored:es who prefer to throw chips at people or just plain arse about for 90mins. :twisted: Still can't beat a last minute goal at the Chaddy End though!
