Official Match Thread Oldham Athletic vs Southend United

Well im off to bed catch the comments and result in the morning .

 

[Strykr]

agreed - but I’d take a point now if offered.

Let’s conserve energy for the two home games

Feels like a 'take a point' season tbh

 

[Farmer Fossett]

I know we have a couple of key players out injured but this really is poor. Every player with the exception of GSM has regressed since last season.

 

[overseas shrimper]

Don't feel the need to humour me, I'd prefer an older head in goal. Im not impressed with his distribution. I don't think he inspires confidence in the defenders and i feel he's always got a mistake in him. He's young and will improve of course, but I don't think he's number one material yet.

Just my opinion of course, prefaced by saying it'd be unpopular.

As I type this, the BBC describe his recent clearance as a shank.

He is young, yes, but he is developing well and has kept us in games and earned us points. Lost us some as well I guess. I don't know how that balances out. However, I've seen keepers at this level make mistakes, poor distribution etc. and some are older heads. I guess that's why they're in the NL.

sounds like a dull old game , bridge should never be a number 10 ,tayor should be a CD SQUARE PEGS IN ROUND HOLES SORRY WE HAVE ANOTHER rb his names WIND why not give the lad a run
as for number 10 i would rather the new signing have a go there before Bridge.
Or even Moncur

It is pretty dull, half an hour gone and neither keeper has had a save to make. Oldham are pressing well though

 

[SeldomSeenShrimper]

Moncur is so nice to watch play

But my god we are so negative and have zero outlet up top

 

[Leeboy]

Glenn S confirmed Miley out for ‘a few weeks’ with a back problem

 

[JCB]

Christ this has been dull even by the usual standard

 

[Boreham Blue]

Would prefer to see the energy of KAF in midfield and Moncur to 10

 

[Suomi Shrimper]

Bit better - sustained string of passes in Oldham's half, and Colin hit the channel for Bim to force a throw-in in a good area.

 

[It'sGrimUpNorth]

Free kick. Come on.

 

[Holy Joe]

Moncur and bridge combining well on left but choosing not to cross

 

[Tony Allen]

Supporters who go to these away games deserve a medal

 

[WickfordShrimper]

Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssss 1.0

 

[flangejackrabbit]

Come on!!!!

 

[Suomi Shrimper]

GUSSSYYYY

 

[Harry Bullocks]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeereee haaaaaaaaaaa 0-1

 

[Boreham Blue]

What a delivery

 

[Barling Magna]

Pepple finally gets a ball to run on to but the keeper gets there first and screws it into touch. From the throw in Bridge is fouled. It is a free kick for us on a dangerous area....... Moncur's clever free kick is netted by GSM!! Or is it an OG?
