Hometownclub Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I think some of these comments count more than others...in my opinion... Attending games is a bloody good one though...IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Ronnie Moore Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 You were gutted when our greatest prospect for 10 year Carlos Roca was released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singe Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Attending games is a bloody good one though...IMO. Of course, but these are all relative. If you have a girlfriend, live on Broadway, go shopping with her every Saturday, have no kids and spent £50 a week on booze and don't go then fair enough, rather than live a 12 hour round trip away, have a 2 year old kid, sodding great mortgage and virtually no disposable income I hope you get a bit of slack on the attending games side of things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khlatics4ever Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 ..unless you were at Ipswich for that game. ..unless you shook a bucket at the All Star game. ..went to Ian Woods testimonial. ..saw AlanGroves play. ..saw Carl Valentine play. Just to show I am proper Oldham fan, because I was ruled out after about the 2nd post otherwise! Changed ends at half time by passing under the clock in the broadway stand. Watching Ronnie Blairs disallowed goal against the red b*****ds. threw into the sheet collection for the floodlight fund & saw the top of the league (currently premier league) winners Burnley in the official opening match. seeing Grovesy getting kicked to f**k at bournemouth & still getting m.o.t.m. seeing Grovesy sitting on the ball pretending to tie his laces absolute p**s take. Walking down Wembley Way to see Joe Royles aces. Seen the likes of Pheonix.Bazley & Swan 'eee' them where good old days. 'The best ever Sir Bobby Johnstone' Watching Laurie Sheffield try to score from the half way line 'with a header' Walking with the rest of the puddled crew (only joking) to save the 'Tics' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garcon Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 So where down to about 3 people already I reckon I can knock one or two off that with just one bite of the cherry... You're not a proper Oldham fan if you didn't go to Torquay vs Oldham, League Cup 2nd round 2nd leg, 9 October 1991. (We were 7-1 up after the 1st leg... ). I was on the one fans coach that went. We got there before the team, and had to direct Joe to the front door of the ground, teamsheet in hand, about half an hour before kick off!

Beardy Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 if you didnt wait for the half time gates to open to get in when your skint. If you didnt travel on the open top bus from (insert estate here) to BP. If you werent at the Civic Centre after promotion. If you never saw Ernie Cooksey. if you dont remember the corrugated fencing at Port Vale. If you didnt see Francis Benali score the most wonderful headed own goal down at the dell! (he scored 3 in 2 weeks i believe) If you dont know what Normid Superstore represents! if you didnt get to play on the plastic pitch if you never stood on the concrete holding the floodlights in the RRE if you bought a season ticket and said "this is our season!"

outoftheblue Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 You're not proper Oldham unless you have queued for the Pink Final after getting home from the game GREEN Final Prozac. Edited and printed at the Chron office, Not that pink United loving crap produced in Manchester. Anyway, You're not proper Oldham if: You didn't walk to Maine Rd to watch Latics dump Northwich Victoria out of the cup (Vic Halom - King of all Geordies!) You didn't get interviewed on Sky after the 3-2 win at Ayresome Park and still get back to Oldham for last orders (120mph all the way) You didn't see Graham Bell streak through the offices after a (Sadly forgotten) decisive victory. Ginger pubes always look false! You weren't one of Harry Wood's <ahem!> "Helpers". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
