  1. I asked him that on GMR a couple of years ago and got a reply about the club (no mention of the land...like it doesn't exist) and some piffy bull:censored: about the OEC becoming a source of income to make the club a better prospect for any investors (didn't say potential new owners.)

     

    Time wasting exercises.

     

    But if you ask in person he can't just sidetrack the question?

  2.  

    I've always thought that all Oldham managers have been given a fair go until last seasons fiasco.

     

    As Kowenicki mentions we are not really a hire and fire club. So much so that I think SR will be here until near the end of the season even if we get relegated.

     

     

     

    No chance. If we start looking like being relegated come december/january then Corney will sack him.

     

    Sounds like Robinson is already under pressure from those above him judging by his recent interviews.

  3. Young George is off to Sunderland £150k done deal announced in January window.

     

    Shame but good luck to the lad. Looks like Corney doesn't fancy the Winchester/Mellor risk again.

     

    Give over. If he's good enough for Sunderland then why isn't he playing for us?

     

    Youth team/development squad and then send him out on loan for a few seasons in the hope he fulfils some potential. No risk for them at £150k.

  4. I'm happy with Gerrard coming in - let Burgess return to Fulham in January and have Edmundson as cover along with Wilson.

     

    We need other positions more than holding mid. Winger and striker more pressing issues than holding mid. Green and Fane are fine as holding mid. Winchester, Flynn or Banks can play the creative midfielder, it's just up to whether the management are good enough to get them playiny well consistently...

  5.  

    Attendances would definitely improve.

     

    We're dying for something to differentiate us from the Manchester clubs apart from the fact we're :censored:e and they're not (I am enjoying watching this United slump, must be said).

     

    Standing at games would be that difference. Will attract young fans to the ground as will without a doubt.

     

    I think it would have to be the Chaddy lower tier.

     

    It doesn't attract that many to Rochdale games and they play better football than us...

  6. Rejects us but goes to Mansfield Town. 18th in league 2 Mansfield Town.

     

    Something is seriously :censored:ed up when that is a better option.

     

    Maybe he thought he would get a better offer after rejecting us but hasn't had any offers since? Wasn't he linked with the Forest role at the time he was in talks with us?

  7. Shocking stats for SC to ponder.

     

    Makes you wonder what the attendances would be if we managed to keep Shez. Probably have an extra 200 on the gate even if we was in the same league position. He was likely to have us mid-table/lower top half so probably an extra 500 or so on the gate.

     

    It was poor ST sales that did for Ronald wasn't it? Albeit that it seems some didn't come back even though he was sacked.

     

    He was :censored:e anyway.

     

    Yup and the same for Penney aswell. Less than 100 sold wasn't it when Penney was sacked?

  8. So lost 2,000 in 10 years despite playing in the same division?

     

    At least. Based on how we are playing and if that continues then I'd say it'll be closer to 3,000 come end of the season. Although we have the likes of Bradford, Bolton, Sheff Utd etc who will bring 2,000+ still to come at home which will bump up the average (unless we continue playing as we are, in which case home fans will be less than 3,000).

  9. Robinson might not have had long to put together a squad but there is no excuse for how :censored: we are at attacking. Even when we went through spells of not scoring when Dickov was in charge we still had some half decent attacking play.

     

    90% of time in training is spent on attacking? Either the coaching is :censored: or the players aren't doing as instructed.
