Official Match Thread Oldham Athletic vs Southend United

[Barling Magna]

BBC Essex's Victoria Polly has clearly taken no notice of BBC Essex's commentary team and has just read the scorer from the BBC website crediting GSM with the goal!

It certainly looked like GSM's goal on the stream and he was in no doubt.

Nothing in it and a little fortunate to be leading but I’ll take the bit of luck, 3rd time I’ve seen Gubbins play and still not overly convinced by him

He started a bit slow the last time he was here but grew more into the team as he went on.

I'm rather suprised that BBC Essex's commentators called it the other way way TBH,

Looked like an OG from what I saw but GSM did celebrated like he got touch. Either way it was almost a disguised free kick from Moncur......They had two defenders covering GSM but if the kick is in the right area with pace and hard to defend you create your own luck.

Well done JB for winning free kick in position he would never get the ball if he was left wing all game

Defender gets his boot to it before GSM. I don't think it then came off of GSM, but possible the slightest of touches. Personally looks like a og

Gubbins kicking to touch once again like it's rugby lol

A "traditional" defender ??

Of course he’s going to try to claim it.

Is that code for "cack"

 

[Barling Magna]

Husin shoots wide.

 

[It'sGrimUpNorth]

Much better from the Shrimpers this half.

 

[Holy Joe]

Was that gubbins leaving Oldham player on the deck off the ball?

 

[Barling Magna]

Hobson subbed.

 

[Crowstone Crevette]

Hobson's been substituted. So that gets rid of the ex-player scoring against us issue!

 

[Boreham Blue]

Well at least Hobbo won’t score now

 

[Boreham Blue]

The game is so much more open this half

 

[RHB]

For anyone interested, Southend are playing well.

 

[Cricko]

Poople very close.

 

[Harry Bullocks]

Come on lads, let’s get another one

 

[duncan bulgaria]

Better side this half and some tidy play by the lads , Pep should have done better with a take effort at the keeper

 

[Booma]

Much better start to the half. Pepple looks ok, a bit sluggish. He’ll be handy with some support
