longtimeblue Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 2 minutes ago, LaticMark said: "A precautionary pitch inspection took place at Boundary Park this morning ahead of tomorrow's league fixture against Torquay United. This was a preliminary measure as the visitors from Devon are due to travel early today for the game." "The pitch is currently in a very good playable condition and no concerns were identified by the official who oversaw the inspection. At present there are frost covers on the pitch which will remain in place overnight." https://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news/2022/december/10122022-torquay-h-pitch-update/ Well played ground staff. Was expecting an early decision. They'll potentially be some cry-offs tomorrow with sore heads though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yarddog73 Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 To be fair the old open Rochdale Road end must have brought it's fair share of grown men to tears, remember a very decent contingent from Plymouth come up for a night game and they got absolutely battered by the elements. That must of been some trip back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Didn't some group of fans actually get Frost bite standing on the old Rochdale Road End in the 80's might have been Ipswich. Was it also not referred to as the Siberian End during that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc1955 Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 I seem to remember a night match against Charlton when there was just one guy in the uncovered RRE standing alone in the pissing rain!

Wardie Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 6 hours ago, TheBigDog said: This is a key consideration. It is evident that a lack of confidence runs throughout the squad - too many look afraid to play. And the best way to gain confidence is to win games. Confidence breeds more confidence. Why do they lack confidence..because of Unsworth or the hostile fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beryls Lot Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Paul Marsden is the worst referee I've ever seen at a football league game.
