BP1960 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 I've done a DVD of the1990/91 promotion season from the official VHS. I guess though due to copyright issues extracts can't be used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much of what I had, I converted, uploaded to Daily Motion & placed it in the 1990/91 post above. If you have anything that's missing then get it uploaded and I'll edit the post; although there is the Fishul season review in there from 'exnoless' on Daily Motion already. https://www.owtb.co.uk/topic/51991-latics-footage-index/?do=findComment&comment=1077140 Edited June 15, 2021 by lookersstandandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never thought I'd see that 1974 Bristol Rovers game again. Remembered all the action, except for the Whittle free kick at 2:40. He produced an even more impressive dead ball effort in the second half, firing a dipping 35-yarder just an inch or so over the crossbar, then two weeks later scored with that amazing curler at York.

Sparkleking Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 A quick heads up. The Big Match Revisited featuring Chelsea v Latics from May 1980 is on ITV 4 next Saturday, 31 July. It's listed as the first match so may be longish highlights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summerdeep Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) Been taking a look through the list for the earliest period, and noticed a couple of televised games which don't appear: Crystal Palace 1-0 Latics (23 Sept 1978, BBC Match of the Day). I recall Barry Davies commenting that 'Oldham haven't got off the coach yet', a reference to their disjointed play in the early stages of the game. Man City 0-0 Latics (4 May 1985, Granada). Latics thwarting Man City's promotion hopes, there's a very brief shot of an angry looking Jimmy Frizzell (City's assistant manager) leaving the pitch at the final whistle. City had a player sent off in a turbulent second half, and Darren McDonough had a headed goal disallowed for Latics. I recorded a ten-minute highlights version from 'The Big Match' on a Betamax tape when I lived in London. I may still have the tape, but don't have any machine to play it on. There's a possibility that it might have been transferred many years ago to VHS or DVD, so I'll have a good search for that!

Summerdeep Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Well, here's the recording, from a DVD version. Quality not great due to the number of transfers (Betamax > VHS > DVD > MP4), but watchable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summerdeep Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 ^ LOL, well spotted! I'm pretty sure it's him. Here he is sitting on the City bench alongside Malcolm Allison and Tony Book, presumably circa 1979-80. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summerdeep Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 (edited) Er, yes indeed.... And now for something completely different. A slightly fuller version of Latics v Watford, 29 Dec 1973, from LWT's 'The Big Match'. Terrible miss by George Jones - thank goodness Garwood established himself as a first team regular in the second half of the season, otherwise I think we might have missed out on promotion. Eddie Large wasn't on the Latics or the Watford bench, by the way... Edited September 9, 2021 by Summerdeep 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) Late 1960s I guess, there's a couple of clips of a practice match against Manchester United, Best and Charlton included, featuring as I can see Ian Wood, Maurice Whittle, Colin Garwood, Jim Bowie and as I can make out Harry Dowd in goal.

Must have been there but can't remember anything about the game!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
