leeslover Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 will bring a new way of training with him Half of our lot couldn't trap a pallet of cement, can you really see many of them benefiting from the training drills that Ronaldo and Rooney do?

edhunteruk Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Its hard to say re enthusiasm IF IF if Butt didnt turn up? as suggested by others. unless someone sat for 2 days in a car in the carpark logging who did and didnt walk in,then its all pure speculation....nothing more the club has not released a list of condidates,everybody is just going off paper talk and the rumour mills... the reason i said what is did is simple...bunn hasnt been a number 1,has no experience so if were going to go down that route id much prefer someone like butt,he hasnt got any experience iether but he is young and hungry for success,and has played for some fantastic managers,and will have good contacts and is well thought of generally in the game...outside of oldham nobody really knows bunn do they...

Ernie For England Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Jesus, am I the only one who thinks Ritchie will be the worst appointment we can make? I'd give it Richardson over him. I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Ronnie Moore Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 (edited) Oldham managing director Simon Corney has issued the following statement on Monday afternoon:- "I am delighted to announce Martin Gray as the new manager of Oldham Athletic. Promoting an assistant manager to the lead role is often seen as a cheap or safe option, but I can assure all Oldham fans that I have selected Martin because I truly believe he is the best candidate for the job. I have also been impressed with Martin's hunger to manage. I have always sought ambitious managers and there is little doubt that he is as enthusiastic and ambitious as ever. Martin will be assisted by Lee Duxbury, who needs no introduction to Latics fans. Lee has been an extremely loyal servant for our club but it is Lee's talent as a coach that has earned him this appointment which I know he will relish. Martin's and Lee's existing knowledge of the current players will allow them to hit the ground running, but they have already made me aware that they will be implementing their own philosophies and ideas and adding to a squad that only just survived relegation last season."

Whilst I respect AR as a player and former manager of this club, there are several mangers I would rather see here than him, and that includes Gray, Simpson, Crossley, Bunn, Hill, Gannon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP1960 Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Well i'm with you on that + long term sick pay for absentees like Purdie etc. Obviously as posted Killen etc happens but it must have a place on budget in terms of ££££££££s with targets to reduce. My BIG gripe is agents fees......... I agree, I prefer proper scouting like Dario Gradi at Crewe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaticMark Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 http://www.oldham-chronicle.co.uk/news-fea...atics-job-talks I would recheck Maybe Latics first choice (say Gannon?) has turned the job down or not met the board's imposed deadline, and that the board are meeting tomorrow to decide who is their second choice?
