I don't see it as a slight on Edmundson. Perhaps, but we've still brought in 3 players now rather than use him. I'd have thought he might have played 10 or 15 games this season if not becoming first choice. Seemed like a nice lad when I met him at the awards do, I'd love to see him do well but he's got to show the manager that he's the man for the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well obviously not. What's your point? What he said was fine. Parkinson IS a one trick pony and they WILLreally struggle next year. Would I swap with them? Damn right.

I don't recall us playing two up front second half at Chesterfield and I wasn't at Southend. I'll be damned if I can remember tactics from last season let alone a few seasons ago... It was Southend that had one sent off, not us Edited April 15, 2017 by Dave_Og Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UsedtobeWozzer Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Nice birthday present for me that today! i agree with the comments about Fane - he has been excellent last two home games, slightly too early for the Viera comparisons perhaps but I think the lad is going to have a good career, got some engine on him. Credit also to Green, Banks and Wilson. Green has had a decent career but on occasions earlier in the season (Lincoln particularly) looked like he'd never been acquainted with a round ball before. Banks has had a beasting on here but made one particular interception / tackle today when there was a real mix up on the right hand side. He can also pick a pass and the fact he's a regular now means Shez can see something in him and I can see him being an important player next year. Wilson is very much the unsung hero. Doesn't get anything like the credit Clarke gets (and Clarke has been immense) but very steady and the right side of a back 3 may just be his best position. Was it the genius Kelly trying to offload him to Notts County? He'd be here next year if it was my decision. All in all a great result, safety almost assured and signs that somewhere higher than 17th may be possible next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly tried to bin Wilson off to Notts County and Robinson also left him on the sidelines. Yet in both of Shez's spells Wilson has been one of the first names on the team sheet. He's a steady eddie and Shez obviously appreciates this as did LJ who signed him. I definitely think Shez has got the best out of him and it would be good if he stays on next season.

PlayItLivo Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 (edited) Funny reading comments from Wanky Wanderers, just another "big team" who thought they could stroll into little Oldham and get an easy three points. And whilst I accept as a passing and attacking team we're not brilliant and have to grab our chances when they come, defensively we're as good, if not better than anyone in this league. Teams just can't break us down, albeit with a bit of good fortune perhaps, but we really are solid, and even though Ripley's not here next season, this defence is a huge platform to build on.

The blunts fans had a similar attitude the other week. They used every excuse under the sun when they didn't get 3pts rather than acknowledge we have a stubborn defence and aren't pushovers. They've soon changed their tune now that our Bolton victory has secured them the title and some of them see their point secured here as a point gained in the context of things.

As much as people will use our goals tally as an indictment of our negativity, in order to downplay the defensive record, it's an even greater homage in my opinion. For half the season our defence was under constant pressure because we couldn't get out of our half. We can't replace Ripley, but we'll be far more balanced as a side next season when Shez recruits. I really fancy us to be that team who keeps their momentum from the back end of the previous season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
