Not just me then Monty.......

He said DU's pet hate was playing backwards and ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK, his words not mine Harry Vaughan and BO? are you sure? even if I did are you telling me what I can and can't post. Or is it a case of I'll bring BO up and everyone will lump on. This is about what Reid stated so stick to the subject Monty.

No I am not. Where did he say we had to lump it forward? There are 101 posts on here stating DU held this side back, was too defensive first and foremost.

Yes, none other on the Pod phone in

Come on Monty, the consensus on this board was that DU was defensive minded. he held the side back with a handbrake. When it's time to hold our hands up........hold um up!!

From Reids own mouth, DU pet hate was playing the ball backwards and wanted to ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK. Complete opposite to opinion on here.

Doesn't ST state in the interview they know what's needed. Adding players with 'legs' and take care of the ball. Sounds pretty much the same to me.

Sorry read it wrong

Obsession isn't healthy. Let it go.

A symptom of lock down as seen in other scenario's.

Home office figures show during 2022/23 season only 15 oldham fans were arrested out of a total 2264 football fans. Again only 8 was for violent disorder. In the grand scheme of things that suggest the AWAYDAYZBOYZ ain't as bad as some would have us believe.

Absolutely 100%. It's the fact we don't have the ball, chasing it whilst the other side simply pass it around. Green fires in a great goal, torments his defender one game in ten (well one half). The other nine doesn't retain the ball nor defends his space. Dickenson can't last 90 mins. Sheron huffs and puffs putting in 2 tackles per match mainly standing off his man in a backward motion, then either passing backwards or to the opposition. Shelton stands off, stands off stands off deeper and deeper, why is he even here?. That's the starting point.

Just answering a question . He was there though

Terry Butcher was there today.

Terry Butcher was in attendance today. Surely not???

At least ST tried to mix it up to affect the game. Unfortunately unorthodox changes seldom work. The simple fact is, these players aren't good enough. Nor is ST. Every game we can't transition the lines nor can we disrupt the opposition from passing through us and breaking our lines into acres of space. Hence we go ever deeper.

Pretty much like every town centre of a weekend. It's been ever thus.

An expensively assembled squad by oldham standards that's simply not good enough

Not condoning plod welding batons but the bulk of the AWAYDAYZBOYZ will be the ones making it a cracking atmosphere. If it goes to form it won't be the team creating it.

Absolutely

Main stand or any stand at BP will like a style of play that's winning and flying high in the league. Good flowing entertaining football on top would be the huge cherry on the cake.

For Latics to get an experienced manager currently then surely said experienced man/woman (bugs me this political correct shite) would have failed somewhere at least once. I know it's possible that this experienced manager could come from the NL, but for me I'd want experienced higher up the ladder. So a young upwardly moving manager, providing good football for me.

Why would anyone want to do that or be reborn with another account?. Certainly not due to another poster.

After 4 games there's no chance anyone knows whether ST is the man. Even given his points haul is good due to the poor sides played. Let's face it even in those games we haven't been brilliant. The odd passage of decent play and some good finishes that's it. I always have nagging doubts about taking on a manager who were part of the team that's done shocking bad.
