Fruitygoo Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 (edited) When we had that second corner in the 95th minute, I stood my nephew on the seat so he could see...when the goal went in, I saw his face, an 8 year old cheering himself almost in tears.. In 1989/90 I was 7/8 years old and I never thought my nephew would see the kind of match which hooked me over 20 years ago....how delighted I am that a new generation of fans can experience a similar set of emotions than I/we had many years ago. Not only do I believe finances are being bolstered to keep the club afloat, this cup run must surely be building attendances for years to come...lets hope so!

Lewis Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I was nearly crying yesterday when that goal went in but I stopped my self :P I hope we can continue this run and get more fans through the gates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamjonesyyoafc Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Dickov's face was wonderful, he's like a fan! Montano too! I love it, the whole ground singing at once, best atmosphere I've ever experienced at BP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossrocks Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 My sister, life-long Latic, couldn't come to the game as had to look after her young kids. She was glued to the TV and scared my 5 year old nephew with her reaction to Smith's equaliser! I don't think he'll ever have seen her make such a racket and apparently ran out of the lounge to hide! We're hoping to get him down to BP in a couple of years so he can witness the magic first hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
another fan Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Not the best moment of yesterday but a great one for today As usual on a decent day the young kids are outside wearing their United tops and kicking a football about The big difference today is that as they kick the ball theyshout out "Come on Oldham" There is hope for them yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laticdickovarmy Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 If you want more kids to experience this and grow our fan base for the future you can always donate to laticsforlife via paypal to laticsforlife@live.co.uk Hopefully the near 100 kids who have received season tickets were at the game Saturday and therefore have more than paid for their donated season tickets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
