  1. Milligan had lost 2 yards of pace on his return due to the injury picked up just prior. That said he was still a dog of war who put his body on the line every game. Henry for me was the better player but the two complimented each other and were a formidable pair in the middle of the park.
  2. What is Lundstrum?. Is he a box to box grafter, a playmaker or a sit in the hole protector of the back four. For me he's none of the above and not what I expected given the reviews he had when we signed him. He disappointed early days and subsequently latterly been left out or benched. Granted yesterday was one of his better games and many posters have singled him out on this thread as being one of our stand out's yesterday, but I watched him closely yesterday to try answer my opening question. I found that he ambles back when possession is lost and could be one of the reason our midfield is carved open with ease cause he's missing when he does this. He appears quite a slow runner. He rarely makes defence splitting passes nor is a scorer of goals. He can on occasion make runs with the ball but these are fleeting occurrences. I've there for come to the conclusion he's a lesser player than Sheron who at least put's a shift in to mitigate his ability shortcomings. Anyone else come to the same conclusion or see's him differently?
  3. To be fair I think he's being honest. OK it smacks of resigned to our fate this season and that it's ended in failure. I blame this crop of players far more the Mellon and with that view, I want him to have the next season minimum to try shift out the players he knows he needs to and recruit. His record is sound and believe he'll turn OAFC with Frank and Co around.
  4. The last one I can see is the post Alty one..is it that one? EDIT: Found it
  5. Where is this interview posters are talking of?
  6. It would seem crass on the boards part if Mellon was only here to get us into the play off's this time around given the 3 year contract. Can't see that myself. Sure they hoped for play off's, who wouldn't?.
  7. I don't think for one minute your insults are aimed at me, but for god's sake rap up. We know your views, you can make them without the personal attacks. It's every other post.
  8. They ???? 2 maybe 3 would stand out at this level with a team around them that are this level of player. Explain to me why virtually ever game we are out played and made to look garbage
  9. I've always said Sutton is limited. He'll have a career at the likes of Ashton United. Not a chance championship that some believe. He's not consistent for this level.
  10. Give over.... they cross the line, the manager can't run or close down for them. They are simply not good enough
  11. I am not having these performances are down to the manager. It's these players, end of.
  12. Same pattern. So easy to pay through us. Only hope here is that we get our shooting boots on
  13. I am sure someone posted he's recently been sent off. So banned?
  14. The first 30 proved the tactics employed today were utter garbage. Mellon has to take responsibility for that full stop. I am still firmly a Mellon in guy still, but today was down to him. Aided by these players.
  15. Those tactics in the first 30 minutes were utter shite. What on earth were they thinking?
  16. Very good point that. Never realised they changed status nearer kick off.
  17. Very good point that. Never realised they changed status nearer kick off.
  18. Or maybe they just look at us and think it's a winnable game.
  19. The likes of Brighton and Brentford do well in regards to the money pit. Sold many a player and found cheaper replacements to help out. Southampton did it for years until their failure to replace players one season. That's the risk with this policy.
  20. Use a VPN with a hotel address abroad. EDIT:I am sure you know this
  21. The away fixture was as one sided as you'll ever see. Today for me is a must win, simple as that. Which Oldham side will we get is the question. Not confident.
