  1. Edmundson all over the show first half too. Strong second.
  2. Do wish he'd be more commanding and come off his line to ease some pressure on our defence.
  3. I was surprised to read that. Never rated your away support.
  4. Surridge the danger but is likely to start on the bench as he is coming back from his third injury already this season. If we can keep Norwood quiet I'm confident we can get s result. I spent large parts of last season questioning how Anthony Gerrard can be so fat for a footballer. What has happened with Steve McNulty?
  5. My thoughts exactly at the time. The one save Palmer had to make didn't deserve the credit it got either. It was a tame scuffed shot that he palmed back into danger.
  6. Put some decent balls in at the weekend, I thought.
  7. Talking Oldham fans in general. They can't wait to jump on him. Largely the forward brigade.
  8. I think that's why Oldham fans hate him. That's the right word too. The main stand can't wait to jump on him. He tries stuff, it doesn't always comes off. I'd like to see him see the season out. Doubt we'd be able to sign better.
  9. Why does he think he's really good? Have you spoken to him?
  10. How many will we take to this? My guess is 400
  11. He gave the ball away in key areas on a number of occasions. I don't think there's an Oldham fan out there who would say his distribution can be poor. It can also be excellent but many seem to miss that. Don't agree he was fucking dogshit at all. He was constantly on the ball trying to make things happen. Take him out of the team and we'll miss him.
  12. Happy to be proven wrong but I honestly don't recall singing his praises last season. Think you mean Ousmane Fane.
  13. I've forgiven him for playing a pivotal role in our relagation and at this level he's a good player in my opinion.
  14. Fair points on DG. That said there was plenty of things in there I thought he did really well that you and many other fail to mention/ notice. He won loads of second balls and I also thought his distribution was much improved. However I agree with the other lad sitting he has to get himself in the opposition box.
  15. Lots of positives. Gardner quality again, Lyden looked calm on the ball and cleaned up well. Virtually a full game in Miller. Just need to be more clinical. Points will come.
  16. Disappointed to see Bury had a bigger crowd than us last night.
  17. Baxter was ineffective as he was playing as a striker. If you are playing 2 up top it needs to be someone who can play on the shoulder. Play Baxter in a free role off a striker and we should start to see the best of him.
  18. I'm by no means a Gardner fan but to drop him wouldn't be the correct call. With Lyden in there though he has to be braver. Get into the box. Too often he was sat deep and we didn't have anyone on the box yesterday.
  19. Edmundson MOM for me. Marshalled Pope well.
  20. Watched it on Ifollow. Lucky to get away with a point after riding our luck. How Baxter doesn't start is beyond me. Has to play as a no.10 off a striker. Lang should have had a go through the middle too. Agree that COG and Miller shouldn't play together, nowhere near mobile enough.
  21. Fair enough. So we'd compensate for his inability/ lack of height in the air with the safety of the 2 other centre halves alongside him? It's irrelevant anyway as Frankie won't play 3-5-2.
  22. Hamer over Hunt as the 3rd centre half surely?
  23. Lang needs to play as a centre forward or not at all. He had a direct hand twice in Colchester's first goal on Saturday.
