True Tic

It’s naivety for me, and the fact I could have predicted that result. A struggling team , backs to the wall etc coming here needing the points and we weren’t ready for them ffs. It was obvious it would be tough. Someone needs to pop their head in the changing room prior to these games and remind them “ don’t forget lads, might be a tough one this so be on your guard and don’t be complacent “

He hasn’t played much football and to be fair that team on paper should have dispatched Woking. I knew that result was coming today, what really gets me is that we never got behind them or caused them problems.

I don’t know what Josh adds to the team, he’s so one dimensional, doesn’t get stuck in, hasn’t a pass in him and ball watches.

 

True. Re Lundstram , he looked good on Tuesday with Conlon.

Seems MM is frightened of changing his away tactics. 

 

Why did Dallas come on so late? I guess he’s easing him in but he missed Tuesday and most of today. I know he hasn’t had much game time recently but he must have a decent level of fitness

Think we will get stronger whilst 2nd and 3rd falter. I’m confident we will be top3 .

Do you think? I genuinely don’t think we are consistently strong enough .

It was the same against Ebbsfleet. We huff and puff, but just look devoid of ideas or have any zip about us. 
 

It’s really frustrating, but Mellon hasn’t had two poor performances in a row so I’m sure we’ll bounce back. 

I think we will, the home form is awful though, needs sorting .

What annoys me, is the type of performance. If we still created and were just unlucky I wouldn’t have any issue. But we looked half a yard off of it all game and had no tempo to our play. Really lacklustre.   
 

 

I didn’t go but was there by any chance resting on laurels after our magnificent victory on Tuesday ? I saw this result coming down the road  a mile off, why on earth didn’t we prepare for a team fighting for their league lives. Not sure either why Dallas came on so late? We’ve only got him til end of the season so he needs to be used. 

Keep that Wembley date on ice, usual circus resumes

Anyone know how many went??

5880

What a pleasure to see someone make a pass from the middle of the park and slow the play . Conlon looks like that midfielder I’d almost forgotten existed 

I actually enjoyed that. A good steady win which I haven’t seen in ages

I’m heading up to Oldham from Shropshire this afternoon, to meet up with an old friend who’s a regular and to attend my first game of the season.

The forecast suggests that I’ve not chosen the best night for it but I’m sure a win will make it all worthwhile

It’s hammering it down here at the moment and has been for hours. this new pitch won’t turn into a boating lake

Doesn’t say he isn’t, says he hasn’t play since December I reckon he will start him or at least bench come in at around 70 mins 

Just with them saying it’s unlikely and they mention the international clearance thing which they aren’t fully clear on. Hope you’re right. 

Apparently Dallas not playing tonight according to Oldham Times, ffs, we need all the help we can get at home.

Let's hope he recreates his Solihull form and not his Kilmarnock form... 

please god

So where is it officially confirmed  ?

 

Oldham times have confirmed

If he can replicate his previous form at this level he will be a huge signing but feel strangely underwhelmed now it’s been disclosed…

Me too, I think it’s probably because the majority of “quality” signings we have made recently have been distinctly underwhelming . That said I’d say him and Norwood ( on paper) must be the best strike partnership in this league .

I dunno- 3 minutes? 

I wish, MM last week was saying “we’re literally over the line with one” or very much words to that effect. Where’s this line I wonder 

4 minutes ago, League one forever said:

Think I prefer it when they just announce someone without being told to expect a signing. 

Indeed, it’s ridiculous. How long does it take to get a signing “over the line” .

Hmm. Thought Frank didn't fancy Colclough because of his criminal past? Madine is currently subject to a suspended sentence...

Probably won’t fancy this fella then has he’s been in the shite twice , one of them a prison sentence …

Just now, oafc1955 said:

Probably none of them but out of the three Dallas would be my bet.

Me too, seems to coincide with him returning from Scotland

Stay focussed people

 

Stop dwelling on past mistakes and get ready to rejoice in another signing that is better than what we have already got and so will improve the team again.

 

 

Have we any idea who it is yet? I’ve heard, Kanu, Dallas, Mcallum. All three,  Just Dallas, maybe mcallum , possibly both, just Kanu…  come on Latics spill the beans

Strong rumours of 2 coming in tomorrow on Twitter. 
 

Dallas and Kanu would be insane.

Strong as in reliable sources?

I don't believe M.K  would post such an obvious clue about the Eastleigh striker.The picture of 2 jets would be tantamount to telling us who we are signing.Cant believe he would be so unsubtle. I suspect he was trying to tell us that Tomorrow we are signing someone.Still his tweet has caused a riot on twitter. Can't wait to see who guessed correctly. 

They weren’t jets … 

I’ll get my coat, taxi for true tic

He’s scoring goals this season. But he was absolutely shite at BP and not done much before this season has he? 

It says he’s scored 22 in 21 appearances apparently 

I think we will get Dallas on loan to play up front with Nordwood. Although not sure of the rules of loans . Can they recall him from one club and loan him out another .
