iamjonesyyoafc Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 in the spirit of the 100m sprint, won in 9.63 seconds by Usain Bolt, who do you think is the fastest man latics have ever had on the books? or the fastest you've ever seen play at Boundary Park?

GlossopLatic Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I their respective pomps Adrian Littleturd and Jermain Johnson would take some catching. Playing against us Andre Kanchelskis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueArmy1989 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 connor brown has some turn of pace, and leon knight was quick too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonesyOAFC Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Dean Windass had a decent turn of pace iirc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeP Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Matthew Rush could shift when he wanted to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wozzer Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Paul Warhurst could shift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keepingthe Faith Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 With a ball it would be Paul Warhurst. Without it's just runnin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_mighty_bosh Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 If we had a board that knew how to take advantage of a publicity stunt opportunity then, by next week, Usain Bolt could be the fastest ever Latics player... Typical board lacking ambition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 The West Inddies missed out on one hell of an opening bowling attack with Bolt and Blake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keepingthe Faith Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 The West Inddies missed out on one hell of an opening bowling attack with Bolt and Blake. Batting - hitting the ball towards the boundary and running 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeslover Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I think JJ might have been the fastest Latic I can remember, albeit in the wrong direction as often as not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobOAFC Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Bolt reckons he's good enough for United. If they sign him then they will have no need for Scholes in the team and we'll sign him up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

De_La_Vega Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Craig Dudley was rapid. Must have been quicker than every other white man we've had? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilStarbucksSilkySkills Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Bolt reckons he's good enough for United. If they sign him then they will have no need for Scholes in the team and we'll sign him up. Yes, because centre midfield would be exactly the position to best utilise a player as fast as Bolt.

leeslover Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Earl Barrett, gents, come on! Was my first thought, but then I wondered if I was thinking through rose coloured glasses. I always enjoyed the feeling of confidence if Earl was chasing after someone who was intent on scoring in the Chaddy, knowing who was going to win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobOAFC Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Yes, because centre midfield would be exactly the position to best utilise a player as fast as Bolt. Whoooosh. But.. Yes, according to Bolt who reckons he's a defensive/attacking midfielder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilStarbucksSilkySkills Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Whoooosh. But.. Yes, according to Bolt who reckons he's a defensive/attacking midfielder. I'm guessing he'd be talked into a new position. Whoooosh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
