Clubfootkilkenny Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Two great goals today. Everyone played well. Rowe and Sylla the pick for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underdog Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 well that was most unexpected and welcomed. When was the last time we scored 5? Peterborough when we turned it around to 5-4? seemed an age ago Highlight for me was at the 86th minute when a fan behind me shouted out....."you know, I think we can win this...." well we all burst out laughing Got to love a latics sense of humour.

Flemboy Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Great game.Shame poor crowd but those who braved the cold saw a belter. OK Newport were crap but we played them off the park with our passing and Sylla was my Motm although Danny Rowe brace came close.Our second goal was superb and can't wait to see it again later.Well worked goal.

Bobledgersheart Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 As has been said previously Rowe has a good football brain in him and can pick a pass. It was churlish for some posters to question his pedigree when he didn't score loads in his first few games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounding pedantic here I know but I think what the majority were questioning was how he was being played rather than his pedigree. Today we got the ball to his feet and we reaped the benefits.

LaticsPete Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Crisis club Oldham administered a thrashing to Newport to wind up a traumatic few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unsworth blue Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 absolutely delighted with the lads performance today, showed quality to rise above all the shit around the club at the minute and demolish an opposition. Thanks fellas, enjoy your weekend, you may have nigh on 3000 Latics fans cold but very delighted and warm inside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoroughly enjoyed it, first 20 minutes a bit turgid then we turned on some proper entertainment, much appreciated by the faithful. True to say Newport weren't much of a threat, I credit our defence for being decent all game, whatever happens in the weeks to come, hopefully Pidge remains with the club. Delighted for Danny Rowe, is a genuine goal threat when provided with chances around the box, looked fitter today, never the quickest but very alert and links play. Mo Sylla is great for us, works hard and has quality, I chuckled when the Newport lad tried to square up to big Mo. Zach Dearnley looks better every week, his goal was a peach. Strange feeling at BP before the game, thought the turnout would be even lower, the team did us proud today amidst the soap opera which plays out between owner and landlord. Please sort this out AL and Brassbank, we are long past caring who is right or wrong, just do the right thing by Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubfootkilkenny Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Newport were just the same as some of the teams that have beaten us at BP this season. Good partnerships developing at centre half, centre mid and up front. Sylla needs signing up for next year asap, superb again today and doesn’t get enough credit for his quality on the ball.

BP1960 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Has anyone else noticed Dearnley and Rowe are rarely caught offside, signs of a good complimentary partnership blooming. Hope it's not broken up with administration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However he still went on 4-5 runs that lead to nothing, fans still cheered when he ran down the right wing and it went out for a newport goal kick and I will never understand this. But he was also massively helped by McCann who was sensational and backs up my point that for me a holding mid shouldn’t have to run around and make recover tackles if he can pass and position themselves correctly. McCann was untouchable yesterday. I will add I think Sylla and McCann compliment each other and are the best CM partnership we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether it's a tackle or embarking on one of those "headless chicken" runs that invariably lead to nothing he's good for morale, for team and supporters.

Could the Athleticos singing 'Barry Owen is a wanker' and there were a few banners. Apparently Barry was eager to get some fans kicked out but that was before I got there.
