  1. with the new season approaching, i was wondering how people think we'll do.

     

    there are mixed expectations with some saying we will get promotion, some play-offs, some mid-table and a few relegation.

     

    my prediction is 9th and we can build on that for next season.

     

    also, ive only been to the sunderland friendly (which was probably the wrong one performance wise) and despite the loss and mistakes, i was happy with the team and the players we have brought in. (im undecided over brill) we definately need centre back and keeper cover and then we should have a good squad for hopefully a good season.

  2. latics will do a classic latics and start promisingly and then build up a good and deserved position and then slide down at the last minute and missout on the playoffs again. i say 9th.

     

    also, i got the fourfourtwo magazine yesterday and the supplement was a look at the new season. they think we'll finish 14th (brentford and gillingham will be 3rd and 6th, norwich and charlton will be midtable and the best one of all, leeds will win the league!)

  3. Notice that Neil Eardley isn't even in the squad today - does this mean he is on his way somewhere - perhaps to Blackpool ?

     

    Certainly looks like it - obviously unless he is injured and we don't know about it.

     

    maybe penney knows of blackppols interest and is trying to warn them off. i think he will go though, because of the full backs we have signed

  4. On trial with view to loan at Chester City, played and scored last night!!!

     

    Bit out of the blue?? Obviously fallen well down pecking order, cant see way back myself

     

    Opinions?

     

    hopefully he will get some proper match practice instead of the odd sub appearance and come back stronger for us

  5. yep, hope we get to see Kiegan's free kick again

     

     

    hope i get to see it in the first place. decided not to go tonight becuase of the sunderland performance + weather forecast but seems like i missed a decent game. i listened to some of the game and it seemed to me that furman was playing well and running the game for latics or was it just me?

  6. "£3 for 'Moore' is dear enough as it is..."

     

    Your a footballer for **** sake!

     

    :grin:

     

    Although he is from Birkenhead...

     

    he goes on to say something like 'i dont think ill see many thomas-moore shirsts around'

     

    correct me if im wrong but has anyone ever seen a 'moore' shirt? (apart from on his back?)

  7. this guy is ammazing so far really impressed hope all his hard work and perfection gets us where we want to be this season

     

    to me he seems like a great manager at this level. it is whether he can take it that one step further. i think we like penney becuas ehe is good in his interviews and sheridan was never good at the press side of his job. one last thing is when i was at the game today, he kept shouting 'GET OUT!' when the ball was cleared. shows his intent on attacking play.

  8. We should be an unknown quantity this season with all the new personnel.

     

    i think penney has planned this. he has quietly gone about bringing in good players he knows can do the job at this level with no big names. if all of these players gel well then you never know, we could be the surprise package this season.

     

    as for steer and this lad from afc liverpool, good signings and i look forward to seeing them this afternoon.
