Diego_Sideburns Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Richard Money, the Walsall manager, known to Saddlers’ fans as ‘Dickie Dosh’, used to look like this in his playing days for Liverpool: http://www.lfchistory.net/images/profiles/player_money.jpg Now, thanks to the constant sunshine in the Midlands, he looks ike this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blackcountry/content/...203_203x152.jpg It may be best to take your sunscreen to today’s match.

Diego_Sideburns Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Until the second goal went in yesterday the singing at Walsall was poor. There were only spasmodic chants and the odd chorus of OWTB. It picked up a bit after the penalty, when everyone started to relax a bit, and the singing was very good at the end of the game. I didn't notice whether Sean Gregan looked satisfied with OUR efforts. Compared to the past 'different class' performances, WE can't take any credit for lifting THEM towards the victory.

In fairness, every single player came over at the end of the game and applauded the fans. And for the first time this season the players deserved the applause they received.

wardlelatic Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 There will be at least two more than usual there. It's the closest "away" match for my parents and they will be going. They don't get to as many away matches as they used to so, as it's a special occasion, you can expect a Latics win!! A corner will be turned!!! Walsall 0 Oldham 3 Spot on with the score !! Can you ask your parents to attend more matches please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markoasis Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Thought the fans did help ... yep a little quiet at times but the usual away performance. Remember when the fans were being called 'different class' we were all on such a high, it will come again .. the fans performance usually goes hand in hand with the teams. But we will always only get 20/30% at home and aways games singing... its a fact I prefer everyone singing but it just won't / doesn't happen.

BigfinLatic Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Two B.A.L.L.S. members credited with another victory! Think it is more like Bristolatic and Mac who should get the credit! And comparing any atmosphere to Hudds is unfair - I know we wer playing well at the time, and supporters were on a high... but that was a once in a season performance where everything went right, against a local rival - no wonder everyone was singing! .... Think we will see that atmos again... when we are 3-0 up against Leeds! As for who was singing on sat - the OWTB section towards the right (not the munchkins right over on the right before you say!) were in fine voice!... I went to sit over with Bristolatic for a lot of the game, who was about 5 rows behind you diego - unfortunately i think your experiences were tainted by the fact you had the prime moaners sat all around you.... One notable guy in an away shirt and cap - I dont think anyone on the pitch survived his barrage all game... even including finding the need to swear at ricketts and call him useless when he was running back after scoring - nice...

I don't remember being told in advance that if the two named BOASTers attended, we would win 3-0. Whereas with the two B.A.L.L.S. attending, both the result and the score were never in doubt. Although I missed the game, I keep being told that Swansea (not a local rival) away last season was a 'different class' singing perfomance - so that's at least two once-in-a-season performances.

Agreed... was a great atmos - but the once in a season performance was more referred to what happened on the pitch though, Swansea was functional and organised... Hudds was simply superb!

Diego_Sideburns Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Think it is more like Bristolatic and Mac who should get the credit! They can claim the credit when we win at Cheltenham - no tickets needed, it's pay on the gate. There's space for the three BOASTers and 1,000 other latics' fans. http://www.oldhamathletic.premiumtv.co.uk/...1119062,00.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiLatic Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Spot on with the score !! Can you ask your parents to attend more matches please I don't really know how much credit they can be given for the result. They attend every home match and we've hardly set the world alight at BP this season! I will, however, try and get them to go to more away matches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inspiral_Carpet Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Who keeps voting on the poll when we know how many we took? About 30 people voted on the "Diego Match Report" poll even after it was clarified that Mike Yarwood was in fact the author. Goes to show that if there is a poll there, people will vote on it!
