Agreed. There were 6,500 there on Saturday and the team played very poorly. How long before some start to drift away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kowenicki Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 Only thing I can think is… If only we hadn’t given away 10 or 12 points by “showing patience” with our most inept manager ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the team keeps winning away from home the hope and possibility of a home win is reinforced. Start losing away and home, then it may happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously points on the board are the main thing but we have 2 games in hand on Bromley and play them at home. Lots of if’s and but’s but if we do win those 3 it takes us 4 points from them. We have a lot of winnable games coming up which could potentially put us right up there, and then we have some crucial games nearer the end of the season which will be massive. I fancy we’ll have 2 10k home crowds in the coming months too which would be great to see! Not getting too carried away yet though…. This is latics remember.

Yeah, berry possible if this form is maintained or close to it. I only said third because there’s no material difference between that and second. Both are one game then Wemberly.

Said to my mate at the game last night that it feels like MM could be here for a few years. First manager for as long as I can remember that I have genuinely felt that. He’s a great fit for the club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can Neil Redfearn Do It Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I think catching Bromley is a stretch given they continue to go well themselves - we have only gained a little on them through our recent great form. Barnet I expect us to finish above - in third. Hopefully it will be third time lucky for Dallas at Wembley... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope we can break 7000 on Saturday, after once again dipping their hands in their pockets the Rothwells deserve any support that they can get and I hope the Oldham public and floating fans respond. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
