I was born and brought up in Huddersfield, it's an reasonable shopping centre - better than Oldham but obviously doesn't have the same choice as Meadowhell! Plenty of decent eating places and drinking holes but be aware Udders fans can and are arses, I should know I had to put up with them in school! If you do go to Meadowhell, come off at Junction 35A and follow the signs for Udders. Be aware though that they have speed / distance cameras on the Stocksbridge by-pass. I should know I got caught on there 3yrs ago. Go no faster than 60mph! Latics fans coming from Oldham should call into the riverhead brewery in the centre of Marsden if you like real ale and a decent pub - it's right by the river funnily enough. There is also the Sairs Inn in Linthwaite which is a spit and sawdust pub but another real ale boozer. Both are not far off the beaten track.

Cue sound of Homer Simpson drooling.....mmmmmmmmmm

As I Yorkshire lad I was converted to the joys of Hollands by my dear departed Lancastrian Gran. I can quite honestly say that they are the best Meat 'n' Tattie pie by a long way.... Fact! Can we follow Dales example and serve the pies with mushy peas? 'Udders used to do a top deal of a Hollands pie combined with a pint for the pricely sum of £2.50

I agree with you 100% re: Dead Mans Shoes - Abolutely classic film. My 2nd favourite film of all time behind Withnail and I.

If Northern Rock goes belly up which it shouldn't considering the Bank of England has backed them, then if the worst comes to the worst the only thing that will happen is that your mortgage will get transferred to another mortgage provider! I know that you may not get your mortgage at the same rate but at least you won't be losing your home! As for being sh@t i'ts early days and trust me after watching Latics for 30yrs it's never an easy ride! By the way, does anybody out there know a good company to work for and who are hiring? I've never been out of work since I left school (apart from going from going to university).

Who me or the club?

Cheer up you miserable sods.... It could be worse you could have lost your job and be about to lose your house! As much as I love the Latics certain things have been put into perspective by my recent predicament!!!

Way too slow! Against Bristol Rovers you could see he was completely out of breath - it reminded me of my Sunday morning centre half performances whilst hungover against which ever 16 - 17 year old forward I was playing - plus he was sweating more than I was which goes some considering I'd drunk enough the previous night to refloat the Titanic

Now that's feckin' drummin' I could cope with that!

How dare you bismurch Geoff Thomas' name! I'll never forget seeing him at Wembley (T'old one) against France; when we got seated with all the French fans; and Geoff was one on one with the goalie and managed to hit the corner flag!!!

I remember both Mouldy Old Dough and The Rockford Files theme tunes - aaah they were the days when I used to get money from the old Ford Stand for collecting glasses.

Craig David! Never liked his music or his silly beard. Oooh Craig Davis - I'll get my coat!!

Hmmm, certainly interesting I hope he's mentally strong because he's going to come in for some tremendous stick - I can hear the 'murderer' chants now
