However if the club has a backlog of queries and is behind with a few things, then a simple automated email response stating this, and that they will try and respond asap over the next 7 days would be a good idea. Just sets the expectation for some of the moaners. Nothing worse than a none response to an email that the sender sees as important in my humble opinion. And BP1960... if your a Latics fan why are you recommending young players to other clubs? Surely a bit of patience on your side and another week isn't going to harm anyone and may actually help Oldham in the long term?? He’s recommending players to us in the conference and then offering to the premier league. I don’t think he’s being taken very seriously by anyone don’t worry.

If it is an automated response, what makes you think its been seen? Don’t worry Jorge Mendes, Im sure Shez and Joe will be in touch soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloody hell, give em a chance. Rome wasn't built in a day. We have our club back, so be happy with that. I'm sure that in 12 months time the club will be unrecognizable from the total shambles that has been the club for far to long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well a premiership scout watched one of my recommendations last week, he's a teenage prospect and was so impressed he's going follow him up. Good job Leicester didn't ignore Vardy.

Do you even go to watch these ‘uncut gems’ yourself ? I suspect you don’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He effectively moved up two divisions and the whole of English football knew about him. Hardly an uncut non league diamond waiting to be discovered.

LaticsPete Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I ‘msitr you’ve been sked this in the past so apologies if I’ve missed your reply but it would genuinely be interesting to know whom you have recommended and then gone on to top flight careers.

I agree with you but you don’t need to disrespect the guy….he may well be old school but I’m sure he can spot potential talent when he sees it.

sunshine185 Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Quoted from the Oldham Times "In the week that season tickets went back on sale, 3,700 supporters took up the 'early bird' offer, on top of the 1,600 purchased under the old regime." surely this is a misprint, be astonished if we've sold over 5k season tickets.

Anyhow recommending a striker scoring shitloads in the conference is hardly scouting is it ? @BP1960ill ask again, do you even go to watch these players ? Like actually yourself ?
