LaticMark Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 (edited) I know that OWTB is best, but I also quite enjoyed reading the on-line comments in the rarely wrong Chron. However, over recent months there has been constant criticism and carping from two posters ‘Latics Observer’ and ‘Oldham Scotland’. The former is a negative perennial moaner and the latter has been a constant critic of anything to do with the TTA. Even now, with 2 of the TTAs gone and a fresh new start under Paul Dickov, they’re still at it! Does anyone have any idea of who these two muppets are? As they constantly put the club down I wondered if they are real or ex-Latics supporters, and what motivates a vociferous minority of people to constantly criticise the club they purport to support?

PlayItLivo Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 I wouldn't let it bother me pal, in the grand scheme of things, comments from two people you are never going to meet are meaningless and not worth getting yourself angry about. Quote
creepy Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 'oldham scotland' popped up on here last season if i remember rightly - he didnt last long Quote

Lincoln Blue Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 It is said that there are 2 types of people, radiators and Hoovers. Radiators burst with enthusiasm, positive energy and get things done. On the other hand, Hoovers destroy anything positive with their constant criticism and negativity. Both Oldham_Scotland and Latics Observer are Hoovers of the highest degree. In fact it seems that the town of Oldham has a very large percentage of Hoover types who moan about everything. Remember, optimists see opportunity at every problem and pessimists see problems at every opportunity. Quote

I think you mean vacuum, hoover's merely a brand name (said in my best Alan Partridge style voice). Quote
leeslover Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 I had a friend who I thought of as something of a vacuum cleaner. I miss her. Quote

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 I think you mean vacuum, hoover's merely a brand name (said in my best Alan Partridge style voice). Quite right. In the same way many people incorrectly mix up Tannoy with PA system. Some people. Quote
Lincoln Blue Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 I think you mean vacuum, hoover's merely a brand name (said in my best Alan Partridge style voice). I quite agree but everyone knew what the meaning was and I was quoting from another source (I also know that the comments should therefore been within quotation marks). However, thank you for your feedback. Quote

garcon Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 By the way, Oldham Scotland is NOT Corporal Jones. They couldn't be more different. Corporal Jones is/was someone who thought and cared deeply for the club and had grave concerns about its long term future. Unfortunately, that came across to most as repeating the same, tired argument time after time. Oldham Scotland is just a typical thick Oldhamer who complains about everything because doing so gives the impression of alleviating the abject misery of his own life. Quote
laticsrblue Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 .... constant criticism and carping from two posters ‘Latics Observer’ and ‘Oldham Scotland’..... I have my suspicions that these two aliases belong to the same DkHd. Recently "Oldhan Scotland" has not been commenting very ofter whilst "Latics Observer" seems to churn out his rubbish after every Latics article. However after the match report in yesterday Chron "Oldham Scotland" commented "Well said Latics observer, i agree with everything you say.....! This was followed by this comment from "Latics Observer" - "Thanks Oldham Scotland I agree with you totally..." I can't believe that 2 people hold the same daft views . They must be the same person.

Zorrro Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 Everyone has a very distinct typing style (turns of phrase, punctuation, grammar etc.) and those two posters differ quite noticeably. Quote
