Walking away from the 'derby' between Brisbane and Gold Coast in my Tangerine Latics shirt (same colours as Brisbane Roar) and all of a sudden walking in the other direction was another person in a yellow Latics shirt who was supporting Gold Coast. Which begs the question where is there strangest place you've seen another Latics shirt?

Everytime I see an Oldham shirt outside of this country I am always quite shocked! Im sure i have but cant think of any extraordinary places I have seen one though....hmmmmm

Tenerife. Ok, that doesn't sound too weird a place to see a Latics shirt. But when it is a Lucky Lucky man wearing the red and white Ajax style shirt then it is pretty strange.

Mount Pleasant with said wearer (of the horrid red/blue stripes) was shoving a pizza (freshly stolen and cold) down the back of his pants.

I was in Adelaide a couple of years ago and went to watch Adelaide v Sydney - surreal experience, but that is for another topic. Wandering around the cricket ground at half time(played at Adelaide Cricket Ground) - like you do - and not one but two latics shirts under the scoreboard - one from the Bovis era and one from Slumberland era. Apparently they were Oldham lads who had emigrated and liked to "fly the flag" when possible.

Glad to see a topic not so doom and gloom unlike what has been the case on here lately.

 

Well done.

 

My mate was in India when he saw the old Premiership one.

 

It was being used to wash an elephant, though.

At the top of Mount Etna, Sicily. It was the red and blue hooped monstrosity a year or two after we finished wearing it, I think it was for sale too.

Not exotic, but I used to play 5 a side in Norbury, South London. One time I took 24hoursfromtulsehill along with me (attractively filling out an antique Tangerine shirt that he had certainly grown into) and there was a guy on the next pitch wearing a Bovis one, the odds of 3 in the space of a few yards was pretty weird.

I was just settleing down for a kip after boarding a plane home in Sydney when on walks two latics shirts (with people inside them :wink: ). They were on the same flight from Singapore too, made the 24 hour journey a little more fun.

A kid had one on in Failsworth Tesco when I was there last night.

 

The support is already spreading!!!

You will more than likely see a Latics training top any time you go in a Tesco anywhere in the Northwest of England :ranting:
