Lee Sinnott Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Oldham will win. They provided a reaction in the 2nd half at Altrincham and I expect them to continue in the same way this weekend. Who's coming in from obscurity this week? My guess is Walker... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though, does anyone know what has happened to him? I think he's the only player we've heard nothing from or about for months. It's like he's just vanished with no obvious reason why.

He came out the gym when we were walking round to the ground against Fylde, about 2.15. From what I've heard, he was happy to go out on loan, but Latics wanted his wages paid in full and the club who wanted him couldn’t/wouldn't do it...

We're paying his wages in full if he stays so may as well get something back and let the lad play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigDog Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 (edited) Rochdale Away was Mellon’s first game in charge. We sat in 12th place in the table following a six match unbeaten run (seven if you count Altrincham in the cup) by caretaker management since Unsworth was sacked. Rochdale at Home will be Mellon’s 28th league game at the helm. We now sit in 9th place in the table despite a mediocre March and start to April. Our overall league record under MM is: P27 W11 D8 L8 Points 41 - playoff form? His win percentage is 40.74% The chance of finishing in the top seven is highly unlikely but it would be nice to win on Saturday - let’s hope the players and manager believe. Our recent slump in form has been hugely disappointing and has led to many (myself included) questioning the players and the manager’s ability to lead us out of this division. A win in Saturday please. Edited April 4 by TheBigDog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A win in Saturday please. Problem is the same players who were supposed to raise their game against Fylde and Altrincham will be selected again. MM needs to root out those not prepared to battle and let them know its unacceptable at this club and they won't feature v Rochdale or in in any future matches here He's been far too soft with these players IMO and they may even cost him his job.

Not gonna happen though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say, complete collapse over the last month or so is what’s killed us but the fact that MM has overseen it and doesn’t appear to have a clue as to getting us back on track is my concern!

True - I missed the question mark - it should have read “playoff form?”… As I’ve written on several occasions recently, I am not convinced that Mellon is the manager to take us back to the EFL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
