ripvanwinkle Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 I know someone was asking the other day about the Masters squad, so if someone has already confirmed the below squad am sorry to repeat it. However, I have just received a email from one of the organisers and he has confirmed the following squad; John Hallworth (gk) Lee Duxbury Mike Milligan Darren Sheridan Tommy Wright Tony Philliskirk David Eyres Rick Holden Andy Ritchie I think it's pretty good squad and we should have a pretty good chance of winning it.

leeslover Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 It's decent going forward, I'll say that for it. Quote
Forte_Baby Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Superb its on the same day we play Grimsby i think. Quote
RoytonBlueLad Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Superb its on the same day we play Grimsby i think. Week after. Quote
Stitch_KTF Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 I knew Stitch wouldnt let us down! Isnt there room for another? Jobbo, Earl or Redders would be good. Quote
Mouldy_old_maki Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Just about to buy tickets, really looking forward to it now. Quote
leeslover Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 I knew Stitch wouldnt let us down! Isnt there room for another? Jobbo, Earl or Redders would be good. I presume Earl can't play for insurance reasons, just as he couldn't in the Allstars game. Quote
Diego_Sideburns Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Great news that Stitch has chosen Latics. Altogeher now... Andy Ritchies' magic, he wears a magic hat and when he saw the Oldham, he said "I fancy that!".... Quote

Andy Ritchies' magic, he wears a magic hat and when he saw the Oldham, he said "I fancy that!".... I'm looking forward to this more than some games at BP, am flyin down from Edinburgh especially!! Are we all going to try and sit in the same area/meet before it starts in a boozer, I know Rick (wardle) is going along with a few others? Quote
BJBlue Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Already ordered my tickets . Looking forward to it. I don't have a retro shirt though so i'll be in this seasons. Quote

A while back BigFin suggested a particular block to all sit in - I think he knows the layout pretty well from watching the Ice Hockey. I think it is definitely a good idea to know in advance where to head for as its unreserved seating - gotta be easier than blindly wandering round the concourse trying to track down where all the noise is coming from As for a pub beforehand somewhere in the Printworks eg Waxies, Wetherspoons would be a good bet - or the Hard Rock Cafe if they have the same happy hour on as they did before the darts. I plan to grab a bite to eat somewhere round there then have a couple of pre-match pints. Really looking forward to it. Quote

I've heard the beer (dubious) is pretty expensive/crap in the MEN too. Quote

Chris Ogden Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Must confess to be rather underwhelmed by the trio of Sheridan, Wright and Philliskirk. Never in a million years would we attract the Dodger, however, I remain surprised that Redfearn, Henry, Warhurst, Barlow, Adams, Jobson etc. etc. could not be tempted. Quote

You haven't watched much Masters football then? From what other clubs manage to turn out you should be thankful it's not a case of, "Good god, I'd forgotten David Miskelly played at centre forward for us in 1998." Quote

And not impressed with TW? He's won it twice in the last 3 years! Quote

No I have not watched much Masters Football, no real interest in it, rather like Euro 2008 ! Did Philliskirk represent the club more times than Miskelly ? Quote

Did Philliskirk represent the club more times than Miskelly ? A fair question, which I don't know the answer to. I think the possibly ungentlemanly chap has the edge when it comes to number of players knocked out who were wearing the wrong coloured shirt though. Surely TP has earned the right anyway, he did play for us and has been a crucial part of the setup since? Quote

It's right behind the goal and is traditionally the MEN home end!!! Or it was for the Ice Hockey back in the day anyway. I can't wait - what a way to spend my last Saturday as a single man - out on the lash with the lads watching Latics old boys! Quote

Really lookin forward to it, any talk of Palmer bein there is dreamland imo. We have a mini bus goin from the Rifle Range so should be a good day out. Quote
Guest oa_exile Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Did Philliskirk represent the club more times than Miskelly ? To give you a quick answer, no and Miskell played less than 20 Quote
