opinions4u Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) You see everything through rose tinted glasses... my loss, no way mate, everything about the club is rotten and my money is staying in my pocket. Believe me I am more realistic than many. But there's a difference between supporting your team and choosing to turn your back on them because they drew 0-0 in a (hopefully) mid-table game as the season draws to an end. I hate the phrase 'tactically inept' In fairness I think I misquoted Lukers when I said "tactically inept". The correct quote is "tactical stupidity". It just didn't go our way, sure there were other options that could have been used but putting a big defender upfront isn't a bad option. Didn't Joe Royle do rather well with this tactic in his first spell as Oldham Athletic manager? Edited April 9, 2011 by opinions4u Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter how bad it is or how bad the facility's are you still go and support YOUR club. The club needs as many people as they can to raise funds. The club dosnt need people like you who say they support the club but yet don't go! Your not a fan. You just bad as those dirty red munichs you see around Oldham.

JoeP Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) Are we forever going to have the recently adopted narrow minded outlook on strikers? Davies, COG, Feeney? Give them a chance and they'll do what they're good at. It's not Feeney's fault we can't score. Feeney isn't that kind of forward, that's not his job - statistics show us that. However he has had success at other clubs. I could substitute the name "Feeney" for a couple of other strikers we've had too... I don't think you can pigeon-hole all the strikers we've had over the years, that have gone on to do better things. Davies had talent, but something didn't seem to click for him here or at Wolves and I don't think Chris O'Grady was ever given a fair chance here. Feeney, on the otherhand, has shown nothing to suggest he's the striker we need. I haven't even seen him have a shot this season and he certainly isn't the "6-yard box" striker that will get that last-minute goal when the score is 0-0 when we've been pummelling the opposition. Feeney's track record isn't even that great - he had a purple-patch at Swansea, but all the Cardiff fans I know rate him as highly as we (generally) do. I'm not laying all the blame at Feeney's door, but he was our "big" summer striker signing that was going to lead the line and he's been abysmal. If it's acceptable to blame Dickov's tactical naevity for our poor form, then it's equally acceptable to blame our "international" striker for not stepping up.

Ha ha, well if im this certain w@anker then thats cool.... carry on sir.. Apologies for calling you a :censored:.. But still i'd want people to get behind Dickov, yes he makes mistakes but he's bloody human and has had the job 10 months? He certainly isnt tactically inept and points out that the main problem today was players keeping the ball way too long and being closed down, instead of looking for passes, if you look at the goal of the year you can see that we are a good footballing side and Dickovs tactics worked perfectly when the players put them into practice properly!

leeslover Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Feeney seems to be simultaneously our worst ever signing and a waste of a wage yet also the man for the moment when people are pissed off with dickov. Odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slurms mckenzie Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) We were gash. Again.... And I only made it for second half and that was more than enough. Nothing up front, a complete lack of ideas, penetration, confidence or desire; it was like a practice match for two teams who frankly couldn't be arsed.

oafc-latics Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 You see everything through rose tinted glasses... my loss, no way mate, everything about the club is rotten and my money is staying in my pocket. everything about the club is rotten? how can you say that? ok, we might not have won today, or played as well as we have at the beginning of the season, but i would say it is your loss. you're a 'supporter' of a football club, doesn't that mean you support them when things may be rotten like you say, and hope to build on this season because like Latics_Fanatic said, i think we'll have a better season next time and it's boring games like today that we should have won that we could be turning into wins but if you want to miss out, then go ahead. and i wouldn't say the club is rotton either, it's just a bad time on a bad run. if we'd lost today, fair enough because charlton were poor and it would have summed up our run, but we didn't lose and we didnt concede so im not sure why it's this game that you've chosen to finally give up and say 'i told you so' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takemeanywhere Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 ignore the baboon, anyone would think paul has been a manager for 15 years i say he is doing a fine job in his first year.. For me, this is the bginning, the middle and the end of the debate. It's his first year, not just at our club but in management. At any level. Anywhere. He's learning and, more importantly, is keen to learn. The events of the last couple of months will only make him stronger as a manager and hopefully, we will benefit from that over the next few seasons...
