I was fortunate to start watching them 3 years prior to the pinch me years. Groves left an indelible mark on all Latics fans who saw him play, it was a pleasure to see him with the ball at his feet. Stainrod was the only player who came close to Groves in my eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parigby Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Every time someone mentions Alan Groves, l go back to the day at Stamford Bridge when he totally destroyed Chopper Harris and the rest of the Chelsea defence single handedly. Oh What a Player he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubfootkilkenny Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Buzzin with the result, hate Salford. Not feeling this Wellens bashing though, best player I’ve seen wear the shirt. Good manager too for me. Carlisle, forest green, tranmere going up. Nailed on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardie Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I knew his wife, Debbie, who was at school with me. If you ever saw her, you could probably understand the possible cause of his heart attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's never his fault, don't you remember Yeah, it's definitely starting to go the usual way for him, that lot didn't bring him into their project to muck about and nothing less than promotion will do. It sounded like today really hurt him, I don't take any pleasure from that - he was a great player for us - but I do take enormous pleasure from turning that lot over and the manner in which we did it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubfootkilkenny Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Bahamboula reminds me of Paolo Wanchope for those who remember. Love the guy. Rowe was best though, can’t get over him going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy b Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Even in the first half we looked decent going forward. Maybe we didn’t quite deserve the win overall but that’s not the way it works. We did enough to score twice (and could have had another one or two) and actually defended pretty well second half for the large part. Thoroughly satisfying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands on Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 We are in league 2 because we are not that good and the same can be said of every other team. Salford were not good enough first half and we did them second. Great result with two really good goals. Still in touch just takes a decent run and who knows!

Andyt84 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Ricky Holden was nothing like Bahamboula. He didn't use pace to beat his man and only needed a half yard to put a fantastic cross in. Him on the left and Neil Adams on the right was fantastic to watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? I don’t hear Fleetwood Lincoln and Stockport fans singing his praises and apart from them he has played at Fylde and 19 league games for us and 3 Bradford. The highest placed team he has ever played for were 16th in the 4 th tier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing like Holden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
