Amusing that Oldham is such a hot-bed of hard-working salt of the earth types who've knuckled down and scrapped for every dime...

 

Hypothetical scenario - young lad who has always seemed destined to make the grade as a pro footballer so has always had smoke blown up his ass. Comes to a new club, gets injured a couple of times early doors and struggles to get fit and motivated. Maybe the lad gets a bit down about it all, struggles to enjoy his work (unlike the paragons of office virtue on OWTB of course), struggles to cope with the first major set-backs of his career, his performances drop and he finds himself in an unhappy situation.

 

Now, if we substitute the name "Keiran Lee" into the above, then you'd say that he must have some talent so we should try our damnedest to get it out of him. He's human, and he's struggling at work. Everyone has been there, so why don't we have a bit of empathy and maybe get behind him for a season and give him a chance? Then, if we get nothing back he's out of contract at the end of the season so he leaves.

I blame Eardley, not done anything this season yet.
