Diego_Sideburns Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Today's rarely read Liverpool Echo reports: Moores await Oldham flak Feb 9 2008 by Nick Hilton, Liverpool Echo RELATIONS between Ronnie Moore and the supporters of his previous club Oldham Athletic have been less than cordial over the last two years. The flak is likely to be flying as thick as ever in the direction of the Tranmere manager – and his son Ian – when Rovers visit Boundary Park next month. Moore junior upset the Latics on the final day of the January transfer window last week when he aborted a move to Oldham to make an 11th hour switch to Tranmere instead. Ian explained: "I was 15 minutes away from taking a medical and signing for Oldham. Then I got a text from my dad saying come down to Prenton Park and sign for me. So I jumped into the car and drove off to Tranmere. "Oldham were not pleased at all. I got a few nasty texts on my mobile phone. My dad took some stick from the fans while he was at Oldham a couple years ago and I expect we'll both come in for it when we go back there. "But once Tranmere wanted to sign me it was the only place to go. I would have signed for them even if my dad wasn't the manager." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky_Latic Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 "But once Tranmere wanted to sign me it was the only place to go. I would have signed for them even if my dad wasn't the manager." "Hello Ian. It's so and so from Tranmere Rovers. We want to sign you, can you get here?" "Yeah course. I'm already on my way." Somehow doubt it'd have been that case had it not be Ronald in charge.

Tactics Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 I know I will get abused by this suggestion and I know its pure fantasy as it will never happen BUUUUUUUUT Would it be rather amusing to see Ronnie's and his sons reaction if we actually cheered them. I bet they would think what is going on here. They will have their thick tin hats on ready for the game and it would just be a massive shock if we changed tack from the booing and the abuse! As it stands I really don't care he signed for his dad, would have been a completely uninspiring signing IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Ronnie Ronnie Ronnie, Ian Moore. If that doesn't do the trick, I'm in striking distance of the of the away bench. Tell me what to throw and I'll throw it.

Bristolatic Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 So Daddy didn't know that his little boy was available until 15minutes before he was due to sign a contract? Yeah, right. Didn't Ian, bless him, tell Daddy "I'm going to sign for Oldham"? Can't believe he kept that quiet. I wonder if Ronnie would have contacted him if he was signing for anybody else? Was it a case of a surprised Ronald nearly having heart failure as he gasped, "Oldham? ***ing Oldham? Not bloody likely. Get yer bum over 'ere, lad. I'll give yer a job". Sod 'em both. What loyalty could we have expected from the little Moore-on? Bugger all is the answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al_bro Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 "Hello Ian. It's so and so from Tranmere Rovers. We want to sign you, can you get here?" "Yeah course. I'm already on my way." Somehow doubt it'd have been that case had it not be Ronald in charge. It could have been worse. He might actually have signed for us and deliberately thrown umpteen games by missing loads of chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inspiral_Carpet Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 It could have been worse.

That was sooooooo last year - it has been overtaken by this completely different adaptation of the song, aimed at father and son. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked the Rotherham census. There do seem to be a lot of conceptions in or around the Blue Minx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
