Osei was excellent today, shame the chances Ladapo had didn't fall for him today.

I wouldn't judge on whether we are improving based on today. Port vale were awful yet we still couldn't beat them. They easily enough cut through us on the few times they attacked.

We played better and should have won it but Port Vale were awful. They still easily cut through us on the few times they came forward. Once again it was another Oldham nil. I can't see anyone else coming to BP and being as worse as Vale.

Today was it we was good or Port Vale :censored:? We played better than usual and had a few chances but they was one of the worst teams I've seen at BP and we still couldn't beat them. Another game with no goals scored, he has to go. By the time we next play at BP it'll be around 3 months since our last home league goal.

They would however out of 22 signings or so, you'd expect more than two to be considered a success so far.

Has to go tonight.

Get him sacked.

Saving grace? How many of them would you deem to be a success...

No chance surely? Always looked a class above when he's been at BP.

Can you? I'd say its shocking that a team hasn't won in 3 months yet is still above you with only half a season gone. I can't see how you can look at not scoring in 13/14 league games out 22 any other way than failure. Even Penney and Dunn gave us more goals. Robinson has somehow got us playing even :censored:ter than they did. For E took my information from his interviews. I got my information from Robinsons interviews.

A) Bury haven't won a league game since 24th September and yet we are still below them. B ) Game in hand counts for nothing unless you win it and that isn't likely for us. C) They are 8th and unbeaten in their previous 6. D) Yes we beat Scunthorpe 2-0 but have failed to score in 13/14 of our 22 games so far. E) On the flipside he has been able to bring in the players he wants (strikers all his first choice) yet has failed to get any of them bar two playing well regularly and they are two he will have little to do with.

It costs nothing to send out a team with a positive mindset to go and attack. The players signed were his choices. You could argue that he had to go with what was left but the likes of Mckay, Erwin and Ladapo were his first choices and he has said as much. The only two playing well consistently are Ripley and Clarke. He'll have barely anything to do with Ripley in training and he won't have much, if anything to teach Clarke. The rest have largely regressed since the start of the season and may have a decent game every now and then.

Apart from having us bottom of the league after 22 games having only scored in 8 of them (and one of them games it was an OG). Thats before getting started on him producing some of the :censored:test and most boring football many have witnessed at BP. Then you could start on his lack of foresight during games (players on bookings looking like being sent off - see Green and Fane x2, leaving players on when clearly knackered etc). He might be a nice person and hard working but he's out of his depth as a manager at the minute.

I know someone who used to play for ours & then Dales U16's about 4/5 years ago. He said that our setup at that level was shocking compared to Rochdales...

No Erwin in squad today. He might be one of them unless I've missed it being announced that he is ill/injured?

Yes it is likely to be a summary, but IIRC some members from here went in a few years ago to look through the accounts and were allowed to look at everything in detail I believe? It'll all be there if Corney allows access to it.

This season is the first time I've had a season ticket in four years due to university. I'll be renewing again next year but I'm now less bothered about missing home games whereas previously I used to hate missing any home game.

Why do you want to see Brassbanks and OEC's books? Latics books will show the financial deals that have been in place, past and present. Ask myself why they aren't? Why don't you ask Corney why they are yet to be filed? He'd be able to give a better answer than pure guesswork on here.

Why don't you attend and ask Corney to see the accounts? After all, his answer will be on camera.

Probably not. But I'd rather have Shez in charge than Robinson. We still could be bottom but we'd have seen a few more goals especially in home games than this boring :censored: Robinson offers up.

Nope. But I doubt we would be bottom of the table having only scored in 7/8 games of the season if they was in charge...

I'd let them all leave. I'd rather Edmundson in the squad than Burgess and it sounds like Gerrard is due to sign once the embargo is lifted. I would keep Dunne but on the basis on that Reckord is contracted until end of the season and we need a new left back unfortunately he has to go to create space for one as I can't see anyone wanting Reckord. Croft - 10/20 minute impact player at best. Seems unable to affect a game positively from the start. His weight is likely to balloon soon as he gets a contract longer than 6 months. Jahraldo-Martin - Barely seen him play, seems to have some pace but if he can't get in the squad ahead of everyone else then no point him being here. Klok - Plenty of energy but appeared to be a yard or two off the pace constantly. Seems to have been injured for most of his time here. Ladapo - Can't control a ball. Can't jump/head a ball. Most of the time looks like he can't be arsed. CB, LB, CM, LW and ST all needed as a minimum (New manager also needed!). If we could get players in all those positions I'd then look to try and get another winger in aswell if possible. CB appears to be Gerrard. LW I'd try to sign Martis on loan. Holloway would be a decent choice for ST if available. No idea on who could come in at LB and CM in middle of the season.

Do we? Your knowledge of L1 and L2 budgets is impressive. Based on what our trust rep has said we have a budget of above £1.3m.

Needs to go.
