  1. 1. Correct. If he hasn't..... he's not the man. 2. Minutiae and the basic tenets of a 'plan' are not the same thing.
  2. 1. Really? Wow. How do you know that? 2. Making a statement about winning a League is not a 'plan'. A desire maybe, but not even close to a 'plan'.
  3. 1. Do you know if he has one? 2. He most certainly hasn't shared one with us if he has.
  4. The countdown continues. 3 games to go. Sarfend (h) here; League tables here;
  5. I don’t know. The community trust seem very active and on face value seem to do a great job..... but I’ve no idea whether they keep themselves confined to the borough of Oldham or not? One suspects funding would be required to allow them to do more, as well as allow the club to advertise to a catchment that could be considered ripe for Latics to harvest support from. Ironcially, the latter is what I do for a living and would be happy to donate some time and advice to the club on how to go about it..... however it would require the club to have an owner that had a ‘plan’ for me to consider it worthwhile.
  6. There was a time when we could’ve been the team to have dominated the populous of Tameside to take us onto the next level. Our subsequent demise and Citeh moving to within a stone’s throw and becoming a galactico put pay to that sadly. If we could find an owner to invest in the medium-long term, there may be a way of connecting with those disenfranchised with footballers that earn hundreds of thousands a week, to be able to grow our supporter base once more and aim for establishment in the Championship. That requires a ‘plan’ however.
  7. ....are you two OWTB stalwarts gonna join OWTB Prediction League next season or what?
  8. ...the thing is.... of that era.... Redfearn was probably the better CM of the lot.
  9. It makes me go cold. You have my every sympathy. Tranmere don't though, they can f**k off.
  10. .....is this the mathematical equivalent of that lazy midfield?
  11. ...I was there too.... however, I saw the ball ricochet in the net off his knee..... in the truest sense, it's not the same thing.
  12. ....leaving him out after the Wigan game to teach him a lesson, fine - if Richie was going after the reaction that brought about his winner v Blackpool...... it worked. ....leaving him out again is nonsense. He - and Doyle - are our best players...... and Richie needs to set the team up to suit them both. For me, that means playing one of Davies/Holloway up top with Doyle and letting Byrne play through the middle......
  13. 4 games to go. Wombles (a) here; You'd think GravityGrave, rosa and Stevie_J will have too much to do to win the Premier League and it's therefore a 3 horse race for the title, but this weekend could make all the difference to their challenges...... Bristolatic looks like the only one with any realistic chance of staying up, with SAV, jorvik & JoeP looking over their shoulders..... It's 2 from 4 for the Automatic Promotion places in the Championship, with Predictors changing places all the time...... .....Benja must be the most conflicted Predictor of all, with an outside shot at the Play Offs, he's looking over his shoulder trying to fend off anyone from HarryBosch up who are trying to send him down.....
  14. .....think they're being held in a room with Omrani and Maouche and told to sew owls onto the free season ticket scarfs.....
  15. ......has he ever seen Dean Brill or David Cornell play?
  16. Did anyone of you watch him on Question Time? He attempted an analogy, whereby he used "ugly girls" to describe electoral choices in EU elections..... to his primarily liberal-left audience..... it was f*cking car crash.
  17. ....you were the chap that scaled the barriers? Ive just looked the game up. 19th April 1988. 30 years ago tomorrow!
  18. Oafc1895 failed to Predict and clings onto the last Championship Play Off place........ .....30 Predictors have now topped 100 points.... with 4 games to go, last seasons records of 31 x 100pt Predictors will likely go...... the quality of Predicting is improving.
  19. ....I couldn't tell from my view behind the goal..... which looked not dissimilar to this.....
  20. I recall a Huddersfield fan getting onto the pitch @ Leeds Road during a midweek game in 1988 and punching the linesman to the ground, who had to be stretchered off. He was aggrieved at an Offside decision that had led to one of our goals that evening in a 2-2 draw. Ritchie & Palmer scored I think. IIRC it was around this time of year and Huddersfield - managed by Malcolm McDonald - needed to win to have any chance of staying up. In the same game, a young Latics fan fell from a crash barrier and cut his head open. My dad helped tend to him. Another Latics fan scaled the barriers that penned supporters in, pre-Hillsbrough, in a bid to find the St.Johns Ambulance. The stewards and police tried to stop him. Things were a lot worse back then.
