GlossopLatic Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 (edited) As its the season of goodwill I thought I'd start a thread trying to give credit to some of the staff at Oldham Athletic because I reckon their are alot of good people at our football club who deserve abit of love. I bet some of them read this forum and probably think we are all knobheads. So what I want is if you have had someone at the club do something good for you, if you have seen an act of kindness, or someone going the extra mile it could be anyone, a player, a coach, a member of the community Trust, someone in the ticket office, a steward a turnstile operator. Share it and stick in this thread. I saw at the game against Forrest Green Keillor-Dunn gave his shirt to a young lad in the crowd after the game. Its not a big thing you might think but it will have made that young lads day and I'm very much a believer that small things can make a difference. Keep it positive try and avoid conversations about Brassbank and The Lemsagams.

unsworth blue Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 i have not attended a game all season however I would like to pay credit to the players and coaching staff in paying respects to several fans who sadly died this season. I am aware of several instances where players stood in respect as hearse went past and other instances. Hoping all players and staff and supporters have a good Festive period, Merry Christmas to all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogdenwoodwhittle Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Some one at The Club recently arranged for all the squad to sign a 90th Birthday card for my Dad, and delivered on time and although a small gesture by each of them was wonderfully appreciated by my Dad. He started my interest in Latics, some 50 odd years ago, when we were second bottom of 4th Division, and he reminded me we were seeking reelection not for the first time ... how things change ! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, the pitch still looks good despite only having the guy who thought a kettle of boiling water would get the Peterborough game on looking after it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 l keep forgiving literally everything he does just bc the pitch is good!!!

disjointed Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 So we've gone from those in the club doing good things, to the pile of shite that plays on it, and it's still on page 1. Congratulations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafcmetty Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Adam Street in the ticket office has done me a good turn on a couple of occasions, probably in convention of wider "policy", so a thumbs up to him - we can spare him from the firing squad in the upcoming revolution 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc 123 Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 The friendly female steward who stands in the paddock at the RRE side is a credit to the club. She was at Salford away as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeP Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 (edited) I think the players deserve a bit of a nod. Can't be easy to focus on the the job with all the negative shit going on around the club. Don't think there's a lack of desire on the whole and they're ultimately responsible for keeping us in the football league, so deserve a few positive vibes..
