Bunn Vs Lewandowski


Recommended Posts

Write uo say league match, it was the Littlewoods Cup.

 

Bunn, who was playing for Oldham when he scored the goals, still holds the record for the most goals scored in a league match twenty six years later.

 

What is it? ' lazy journalism!'

7,712 crowd that night.

 

Anyone remember why it was so high?

 

They'd beaten Chelsea in the previous round but were still Division 4 opposition. We hadn't done much up to that point and had no idea what was to follow.....

8,415 in the previous round against Leeds, which you'd expect.....

They brought quite a lot - best part of 1000 I think.

And I think it was reduced admission prices - and the League Cup did have higher profile then

also seem to remember the scarboro manager coming out with the "its only Oldham " after the live draw on the telly

 

Yeah they were hoping for a 'big club' and they filmed the draw. There was an audible groan when they realised they were coming to BP.

 

He said they would 'give us a game anyway'. I guess they changed their minds

Seem to remember that as they had beaten Chelsea there was quite a lot of media coverage, albeit mainly about Scarborough. Plus as Pete says reduced admission prices, and I am sure there was quite a bit of optimistic feeling on the terraces about what our squad could achieve.

Scarborough beat Chelsea in the previous round.

The draw was made on the highlights show after their game ...... someone made a flippant comment about 'where is Oldham ?'......

 

My mate brought his boss to the game .......despite being a Leeds fan , he became a regular attendee at the goalfests over the next few years.

Compare and contrast: "Your support has been magnificent and, on the team's behalf, I salute you."

 

...with...

 

"Our support is :censored:ing :censored:e and, on the team's behalf, I'd like to blame you for our inability to finish in the top half, not that we want to flirt with the danger of promotion. A big :censored: off to one and all, especially the laydeez groups."

Corney always states that the support we receive is fantastic, from our hardcore supporters i.e the ones that actually go! Edited by palmer1

...imagine how much louder you'll all be when you join forces with the Bury & Rochdale fans in some weird 'super club' that I've just invented in my own head.

 

It could've been amazing. Throw in Stockport and Altrincham...Greater Manchester Athletic could be getting beat every week in the Champions League right now just like United and Citeh. Visionary.
