Coincidentally I went on a German exchange to Frankfurt and went to a game with my friend, returned the favour taking him to Boundary Park when he was back over. I've had a soft spot for them ever since. Not seen the new stadium, the game I went to was at the Waldstadion, was a great day - the train out there was bouncing and the atmosphere at the game was brilliant. At that time they had Jay Jay Okocha & Tony Yeboah playing for them. Hopefully he has the same affection for Oldham, I can't remember but I think were in the top flight then, or maybe just been relegated.

I'm going to jump back on the fence. I agree with this, the attitude thing is a bit of a red herring, and I'm sure I've said at some stage that I like Cisak's calming influence. I like watching Bouzanis as I think he's getting the most out of his ability, Cisak is better and will keep improving. So... I'm just going be happy that we've got two really good individual keepers

This is where I'm at, and I'm with O4U on the kicking issue - Bouzanis either hits Hollywood balls or daisycutters, anyone's guess which is coming next

Sorry I didn't notice what mine said after i'd submitted - did you ask for comments you made to be emailed?

I've only read the article posted above and to me it just invites the reader to join the dots - there was a notice - Smith threw his shirt - there is an automatic fine, I doubt he's been fined or will be

It seemed to really help us when Fellaini was pushed further up in the second half - put him into Tarky's area of the pitch and he kept him pretty quiet, think he's becoming a big player for us. Was impressed with Connor Brown, he was quick into the challenge and covered well yesterday, more encouragingly was his challenging in the air, thought he was dodgy in that aspect of his game vs MK but won most headers yesterday. Jonathan Grounds is a class act, fast becoming one of my favourites, quietly gets on with the game and is so composed on the ball that he's our main outlet from defence. Can't remember having such confidence in or left back for such a long time and contributes well to the attacking side of our game

He's not seen much football then

He's not the most mobile but if you hit the ball at him it sticks, I thought he played well today and deserved his goal. A little flat footed after the hour mark but looked a good target man for Barnard and Baxter to play off.

Was pretty impressed today, looks a bit suspect in the air but will be ok I think. Plenty of talking in that back 4 today, they looked up for it

Had him in his back pocket didn't he, was funny to see Smith try and bully him early on and then quickly work out that it wasn't going to work

Furman wasn't there but Bear Grylls could have a cameo role playing him

"Sterling is 18. He should not be playing against thugs and butchers like Oldham" The Sterling that hacked M'changama out of the game?

Thought he'd done a really good job, then that was like a last minute OG

I've been to 49ers v Seahawks and Falcons v Ravens, my team is the Jets unfortunately - for some reason I ended up with a Jets jumper in primary school and they've been my team since. Another sporting curse like my dad for some reason taking me to Oldham for my first ever game and being lumbered with them ever since. So in these play-offs i've been backing Seahawks, then Falcons and now i'm going for the Ravens, so expect a 49ers win.

I only ever saw him play there at a pre-season friendly at Salford and I was pretty impressed despite his fitness that day looking poor. He can tackle, pass and has a good shot, i'd like to see him get a chance. Obviously i'm in the dark about why he's so far out of favour but agree that i'd like to see him get a chance at playing that role

Well that was my point, they don't need to be told, they do it as a matter of course anyway. But this kind of thing gets used as a stick to beat them with

I think you've got a fair chance of knowing when there's a cameraman a metre or two away in the pitch with lights on that show he's recording. Even Rooney worked it out at the World Cup that time. Plus you know that the media cherry pick to fit an agenda, and this had been a big issue. I don't buy it.

I found him irritating to be honest, don't think there was any suggestion that the players weren't heading over there anyway, just taking his chance to be heard on TV

If you successfully appeal do you get your £500 back? This isn't about Wes' red, I know that ship's sailed now

No I think you have to buy the £5 ticket at the office

It was rope-a-dope and it was genius

my god, if that's violent conduct..... that's a joke, but football's a joke anyway, basically 22 players going out on the field to whine and cheat

Signed up for a couple, cheers

Me too, I've seen him 4 or 5 times this season start on fire, beating the full back at will, then after about 15 mins his self belief just seems to disappear. I do rate him though
