Remember all that! Southport away on Easter Monday was actually my 10th birthday, which by simple maths makes it 15 years to the day prior to the Hillsborough disaster. We achieved a lot in that 15 years. 

Some other memories - Formby away in the FA cup - so close to the pitch that when George Jones scored the ball nearly hit me in the face as the net bulged. Liverpool away in the cup - lost 3-1 but outplayed them for long periods and they only sealed it after Steve Heighway dived for a penalty. Never heard a Liverpool player booed at Anfield so loudly by thousands of ‘tics. 

It certainly seemed more enjoyable back then but that’s just the innocence and wide eyed expectation of youth I guess combined with year after year of relegation battles for what seems like forever. 

Highlights of that Liverpool game on the big match revisited now on BT 1

I was at that game, thought it was 76 but could be wrong . David shaw scored for us if I remember correctly. 

Me

Alan Groves in the 6-0 demolition of Huddersfield in the 1974? promotion season. Got the ball on the right wing in front of the main stand, beat his man (twice), cut inside and smashed it left footed across the keeper and into the far corner. The keeper dived but I'm sure he didn't even see it.

Anyone remember Groves volley from the edge of the box, the ball played to him straight from a corner? No idea who it was against but was 74/5/6 in the old 2nd division.

Got it now. On iOS its FLiplayer app

Which player app?

And I had a bet on us to win 1-0 and super Scott to score at 55-1. Happy days ?

They ended our away record under Dowie lets end theirs for payback

Chaddy end used to sing a song about him

Surely April 74 would be chris Ogden ?

Oldham Athletic v Huddersfield Town, 20 April 1974 Score 6-0 Latics

 

Cant find the team but I remember Mr Dowd in goal, if anyone can supplu an actual line up ..... then there was a gap of around 10 years to the 85/85 season when I atrtended most matches home and away for way to many years

Rifle range was showing bt football on Saturday

Same problem here on windows 7 running Firefox Only ever happens on chat, is it java related?

Just checking the fixture list and I notice the attendance for the friendly against Dinamo Bucharest was 8 0'clock.

Going back a bit - Dick van Dyke as the cockney chimney sweep in Mary Poppins.

Atrocious!

Install xbmc, you'll never have to ask this kind of question again

I have a few Latics baseball caps, pm me your address and I'll send them over. Been worn but all in good nick.

No signing players for the sake of it that I haven’t personally seen. I will delve into their background, social media, are they always out? Do they live breathe football? Are they fit, young, hungry that want to better themselves? I will not sign any player permanently that I haven’t done a serious amount of homework on. If they are right for me, the team and Oldham Athletic they will get a deal, if they are simply another ‘name’ not a chance. With loanees they are a stop gap so it’s different but no player will get a permanent contract at Oldham Athletic without my strict process of due-diligence being carried out. Only when all the boxes are ticked then, only then they get the deal.

For this alone he gets my vote

How many plastics were at Goodison?

About 2,500 according to the commentator, and this was on a Saturday afternoon. Not much more than half of what we took on a Tuesday night.

When I was about 10 years old I lived on an RAF base in Norfolk. All me & my mates did from morning to night was play football. They all had their favourite teams except me so one Sunday I got the league tables out of the paper, closed my eyes and stuck a pin in.

Wolves were now my team and I followed them avidly, even going to the league cup semi in 74 at molineux against Norwich to see them win a place in the final. I remember optimistically putting a £1 postal order in the post to Wolves asking for a Wembley ticket but never got a reply.

Used to hitch-hike the 30 odd miles to Carrow Rd a lot to watch Norwich as well so they were my second team but in 1974 dad left the RAF and family moved to Saddleworth. One Saturday I got on the 184 to town and it was full top & bottom with Latics fans. Decided to tag along and the rest is history

Still look out for Wolves and Norwich though.
