These days are long gone an era When the players and the club gave a shit and had the fight and will to survive . Joe royal in my eyes will always go down as one of the greatest managers at Oldham Abdallah Lemsagam has run the club to the ground and the players dont give a shit and that's why we are non league I can only dream of once again playing in the the premier League and I think In my life time it will only ever be a dream. So sad the days of playing with teams such as city and united in the premiership to non league with the likes of Bromley weadlestone raiders 😢
Latics got relegated because of the pitch. You can't play the sort of football they were capable of on a pitch like that. People used to say the plastic gave them an unfair advantage but in fact it gave them a fair advantage: it suited players who were fast, had control and passing ability, and played clean. It was amazing how many top-flight clubs struggled by those measure back then.
Was at this game. 3 things, it was not 84 years (as he said twice, needs a new Rothmans!) it was 68 since we were in the top division and secondly the crowd was over 15k, also the pitch does not and never had a slope!!!
it does have a slope, it was reduced by half when the plastic pitch was installed in 1986. It was over 6' before then. If you don't believe me then drop a marble outside the ticket office on Furtherwood Rd. If it rolls toward the Rochdale Road end I owe you £50
great memories ! 😊
