oafcprozac Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Been away for two weeks but been keeping a close on events from afar thanks to my iphone and the free wifi in the hotel and updates from people (thanks Glynn) and the new found optimism sweeping the club is like a breath of fresh air, just seen young Tom's hat-trick and Dale's brace at the weekend along with the reports of an unlucky defeat last night. I can't wait for Saturday, Hughes and all! Quote

garcon Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 This is why I think us doom and gloomers are actually happier. We've grown immune to this seasonal roller coaster of implausible dreams. The plight of the lower league football fan... Despair you can live with, it's the hope that kills you. Quote
Lee Sinnott Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Yeah. Weren't people saying this a year ago? After the Leyton Orient game last year when we beat them 2-1, I thought Dave Penney could walk on water.... Quote

boundaryblue80 Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Nowt wrong with optimism...as long as they keep it up (especially when times get tough)... From last week when I took the stats... 76% think we'll finish top half this season (with 25% thinking playoffs or better) http://www.owtb.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=31034 Last Season 09/10 78% thought we'd finish top half this season (with 26% thinking playoffs or better) http://www.owtb.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=24730&hl Source: OWTB polls Quote

OLDHAMADE Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 I can't wait for Saturday, Hughes and all! Big Ben Burgess will be there with him Quote
