forever blue Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 I was there in the chaddy end .I cant begin to describe how emotional the whole place was. Will we ever see the likes again? Quote
Hometownclub Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 I was there in the chaddy end .I cant begin to describe how emotional the whole place was. Will we ever see the likes again? Doubt it. I was stood in the Lookers Paddock, great great day. Quote
ghostofcecere Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Chaddy End...... and I spent more time on the pitch than Moussa Dabo Quote
ShakerT Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Since that day I have never seen us take a pen at home, I looked away and was watching the reaction in the George Hill stand! don't want to break the good luck. I was 19 at the time and was 15 rows back about 50 Wed fans were in our end at the start kicking off, they went quiet near the end and somehow I ended up on the pitch after the Redders pen! Crowd safety hey! Quote
Chaddylad02 Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 always gets me emotional - even when the score is always at the top of the youtube page!!! incredible! "you'll never elude earl barrett!!!" Quote
Markoasis Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 - Others fans think our fans are...Living in the past, looking to past successes rather than the reality of the problems facing an average League One club. You've been told, now stop it!!!!!!!!!! Quote
Markoasis Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 "you'll never elude earl barrett!!!" You can always spot the educated one Quote
wakefield-oldham Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 i will guarantee now even if oafc go on to win the prem league,champions league and fa cup all in the same season,,,,that day will never ever be recreated how 20000 peoples emotions changed from utter sheer dissapointment to total off your head excitement within 20 odd mins was something quite magical and i will never forget it as long as i live Quote

lancy lad Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Still brings a lump in the throat... Such a special day I was 10... I was 20 which makes me feel pretty old now. What a day! Will never be done again to the same extent. Away at Ipswich to win promotion was another great day! In between those 2 games we lost to.......... oh no............ Notts County! Quote

GlossopLatic Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 (edited) John Sheridans demonstrates why he should always be remembered as an Oldham legend Shame I couldn't be at that one thats a once in a lifetime game every club has its zenith game which stands above all the others thats ours.

steveoafc Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 great clip! i was only a 8 year old at that match. look how packed it is! All those years ago but how emotional does that clip still get you? I was in the lookers stand (rip) and ended up doing some kind of spinning,hugging dance with a total stranger lol Happy days phew! Quote
Scapegoat Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Was 15 at the time. This followed watching a season of extraorindary cup exploits, and a summer of England getting to a World Cup semi-final. Which was only a few years after my first full season, the play-offs. Being a football fan was easy and fun. Didn't understand why so many older fans were weeping with emotion, however now I do. Feel privaliged to have seen Oldham in those days. And have sympathy for the younger / newer fans that have only known ordinary at best. Quote
Frankly Mr Shankly Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Cor, crazy days! I was in the Chaddy that day, stood towards the front when it all kicked off big style with about 30 Wednesday fans who had gained entry, thanks to an entrepanaurial shoolmate who decided to buy 10 tickets and sell them all to Wednesday fans at over the odds prices! In those days I could do pitch invasions (lots of practice, see). When I tried it against Bradford a few seasons back I nearly toppled straight over onto my face as my upper boddy was travelling far faster than my legs could go. Quote

Piss funny when it went off because they were all in fancy dress, there were German army generals and red indians flying everywhere! Quote
scotty doesn't know Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 great clip! i was only a 8 year old at that match. look how packed it is! can you not just move on from the past and stop contributing to us being held back? these pictures are almost archaic Quote
andy_b_100 Posted August 16, 2010 Posted August 16, 2010 For those who were there (i was just 25 at the time) it will be still all this time later one of the most cherished memories that you can associate with ... surreal, wonderful and scary. By the way if you were the girl in the chaddy that hugged me in tears ....... I wouldnt mind your phone number Quote
