RobOAFC

he failed a fitness test shortly before the game.. so maybe on bench for carlisle game / orient (we play them on saturday right?)

didnt he have the op before end of last season when he also got that injury when royle was in charge? i think he missed the last few games but got it sorted out then and started his fitness work back up whilst others were on holiday

Prefer getting food from pub or greggs before games.. stopped getting it from BP due to lack of it and not puttin the ingredients in that shud be E.g cheese & potato pie - last time i bought one it was all potato and no cheese at all

I think purdie plays best as a CM or RM ? i think penney was going to use him right wing this season.. not to sure tho opajah is either CB CDM CM i believe

Not to sure if i want brill in net.. after seein our 3 home friendlies we have conceded 8 goals, (about 5 one on ones) brill in them 3 games made about 4 saves if that. Maybe nerves of a new club or taking time to settle in, but my confidence in him is low atm (hopefully he'll prove me wrong and turn out to be buy of the year)

Kazimierczak :censored: Hazel Gregan Gilbert Smalley Holdsworth Furman Taylor Abbott Parker

True yet when we are talking about now, byfield has proven himself in this league so at this moment he would be a better backup then COG

He plays hardly any football all last season was no where near match fit still attemptin to get match fit plays 20 minz against blackpool what did you expect? a hat-trick? a MOM performance from him? GET REAL. Who would you realistically want as a back up to parker and abbott? Byfield - a PROVEN striker in this division Alessandra - Got potential, not developing his game, lacking strength and appears scared to shoot O'Grady - not proven in this league, struggled when with stockport, appears frightened to shoot. Are you honestly telling me you would reject a proven goal scorer in league one for either one of them as back-up?

If its up to the police then i imagine blackpool will have the entire RRE like middlesbrough did, as they are likely to bring more

Anyone got anymore news on byfield, is he joining us or is DP giving him a run out today? If he is given a run out again today, maybe him and parker could possibly start upfront for us for this game. To who will be our top scorer mine would be Byfield (IF he joins) 19 Abbott (IF he stays fit) 16 Parker 13 (Including him taking free-kicks) Taylor 10

What about that chap from AFC Liverpool? He is a CB i think?

Byfield does have a good record of scoring goals in this division..

However he did save the penalties

Theres a chance he could have been just training with us the help keep his fitness up while searching for a new club?

Maybe Penney is going for a 3 man counter attack.. Thats the formation in which parker played his best stuff in for blackpool

He's going to city

he was very impressive today won everything and never got beaten apart from parker for which he brought him down which pav then scored. Absolute monster. Defo get him signed on a loan at least!!

If they bringing reserves/youth then i ca understand why penney has got another friendly in against middlesbrough at home

All 3 home friendlies for £20?

take it the £10 is pay on the gate?

Get DJ to play left wing, it would nice to have two left sided players on the left side for once.. taylor can go into right mid

They'll call it Oldham Arena.

anything on our website yet about coaches up there?

Goalkeeper.. Centre Defence.. Not to sure about a striker.. maybe if a youngster on learn from prem?
