And there isn't a snowball in hell's chance I'll be doing a 400 mile round trip. I'm not that arsed about a 20 minute drive to Bristol Rovers. I'll probably do it, but only because it's so close to home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overthinking what goes on inside our club is a torture on the mind, I / we can't change behind the scene crap, I've said before, it needs someone with lots of money to lose and the right connections. I'll stick to watching the team and hope that someone appears and saves us from the clowns, then those who never experienced the Royle era get something to cheer about sooner rather than later. Its football to me, I love it but its just football. We haven't got any money no shit! Neither did Morecambe Cambridge or Cheltenham how did they do last season? We don't need a Bentley to get out of this division we just need a volvo that's slightly better than the others ideally with a slightly better driver.

bigfatjoe1 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 4 hours ago, GlossopLatic said: He played 4 times last season for Grantham Town has not made 20 appearances in his career and he's 24 some players have 200 appearances under there belt by that age. Barrett and Warhurst joined when they were much younger. By the same logic if we signed a player who had just bagged 20 goals last season then they shouldn't be excited either. So yes people can form views on players they haven't necessarily seen in am Oldham shirt. Having said all of that he appears to have impressed in his trial period and the comments from Curle suggest he's a signing he approved off and he has a good attitude so let's see. His career to date would suggest caution, but he has clearly made enough of an impression to get a deal ahead of a number of other trialists. I agree. Let's give him a chance. The lad appears to have a lot of problems (injuries, covid and managerial changes). He's been brought through a reasonably good academy, and they clearly saw the potential in him for a long time, and now i reckon he might have the hunger and motivation to prove himself. I always remember Mark Ward joining from Northwich Vics. He'd been released by Everton. Went on to be an excellent player for us, West Ham, City and back to Everton. Of course, it was a pity about his drug dealing and 8 year sentence, but that besides the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parigby Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 As of a day or so ago, l thought his team were still in the competition, but even if l am wrong (quite likely ), then won't he have to isolate for a period of time / or if not, is KC going to take the risk of playing him without him having any time to acquaint himself with a new defence ?

I was blowing hot and cold for football a couple of months but now can't wait to be at Boundary Park on Saturday .. I need sectioning Went to a non league friendly on Tuesday night, Whitby v Shildon. 291 there. People were as giddy as kippers and throwing money at everything. 50/50 draw landed £121. I know there's more commitment at non league level but you might be right, people have missed it. I even took a photo of the floodlights for gods sake.

There certainly seems to be a buzz amongst football fans for the start of the new season, lifeblood of the game is lower league football and it needs preserving. Yes I know not everything is ideal at the club we are reminded of this daily .. But we are still here , bills are being paid players and staff are being signed (not cheap) new pitch, new kits, opening of the North stand, a blind man can see that money is being invested into the club..anyway less of that roll on saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
