Senor_Coconut Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Mike Keegan @mikekeeganmen Simon Corney has told us he will make a decision on Paul Dickov's future tomorrow. #oafc Would be a shame after today but it can't overshadow how poor we've been in the league for the past two months.

PhilStarbucksSilkySkills Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 When did he tell you/us - before or after the Liverpool game ? The time of the tweet is around 6.15 pm today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshOWTB Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I think he should still go. Can't win in the league which is a shame because today proves we are a decent team. Sure we would be ok if we were in the championship but Dickov can't put a team together that can play league one football! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinevillawill Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 He won't get sacked after today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midsblue Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 He won't get sacked after today. That's what I reckon but why didn't Corney say his job was safe after the match rather than tomorrow? I doubt Corney is thinking of the website hits. I have a feeling he's going but didn't want to overshadow PD today after the win...however league position doesn't lie and those in the media will realise that one swallow doesn't make a summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark63 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Could be that Corney will name PD's new number 2 tomorrow. He did say it would be sorted after the Liverpool game ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossrocks Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I'd moved to a "PD outer" a few games back. It would seem harsh to sack him after today - but do we risk the poor league run continuing? PD aside, if the player's played like that every week...

porkpie_blue Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 We are only few (experienced) players short of saving our season. Dickov should now be allowed to bring few in. Keep the faith and Paul might not be the worst thing for us. Proud to be an Oldhamer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisbrogan Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 There'd be lots of media blah, blah if SC pulled the trigger tomorrow although a home tie in the 5th round of the FA Cup with a team that's just overturned Liverpool may make us a more attractive proposition to manage right now. Having said that, I think a number 2 will be announced and Dicky continues as per. Given the performances of Smith & Winchester I'm sure that the freeze on new recruits will remain in place though, with the instruction to coach and motivate them to do the same against lesser opponents.

ottantuno Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 We are only few (experienced) players short of saving our season. Dickov should now be allowed to bring few in. Keep the faith and Paul might not be the worst thing for us. Proud to be an Oldhamer With the prize money earned from today and the possibility of another televised game I would think there might be some pennies to strengthen the team with. Thing is, will Dick ov be trusted to spend it given the position we find ourselves in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnthonyOAFC Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Sacking him after today would be very cruel, our league form is very piss poor though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lookers_Carl Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Ian Cheeseman also reporting the same thing, seems to think that after speaking to both Corney and Dickov that (they both made it obvious) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deyres42 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) I'm no body language expert but Dickov's reaction or lack of at the end suggests to me he's been told that's it. Edited January 27, 2013 by deyres42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz_Oafc Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Yeah cheeseman says he believes it was dickovs last game in charge. We'll look like right knobs sacking him after that result (to all the ones who dont know the full story anyway) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisbrogan Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 #OAFC Chairman on Dickov's future tonight: "He's under pressure, he knows that. I don't know if that buys him more time." via @bbcradiomanc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavinodriscoll Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 itd seriously be stupid if we sacked him tonight, it just shows what he can do if they are organized and inspired properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midsblue Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 The opposition fired the lads up opposed to PD's leadership me feels. If it was down to PD then why hasn't he been doing this all season with the players at his disposal? It's sad as I like the man as a person but I want someone more influential managing the team as I doubt PD will secure us success and I don't want us just scraping 19th position. Yes the press will slag off SC if he pulls the trigger after today but they don't follow the club week in week out like we do. End his OAFC career on a high Was it coincidence that MH was in the director's box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancy lad Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Never in a million years would Mark Hughes manage us.................. thankfully! If people think Dickov is tactically inept, that :censored:er is clueless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
