We must start winning games, especially at home.

2-1 Nicholls and Keates.

I'm a bit concerned about the disappearance of Constable. Anyone know anything?

I think Halsall likes Nicholls, obviously knows him pretty well from the youth team, and last night he went for a pretty "defensive bench".

I think Saturday will be another tight game, Oldham havn't scored many away of late. Problem is, who (if anyone) do we drop to make Saturday's starting line-up more attacking? or just leave well alone and bring Ishy on late in the game again if need be?

I lost a few quid on us last night because I went for the win at decent odds, but I'll be heavily backing 1-0 to us Saturday.

He hasnt been heard of since the Swansea game. We didn't leave him in South Wales did we?

I think Nicholls has bags of potential. His pace will make him very useful.

On the commentary last night, Kearns just said that he was "out injured".

He didnt say anything more about it.

I am worried Oldham are becomming a bit of a bogie team, so I can't see us winning but then again new fighting sprit means I can't see us losing...................must be a 1-1 draw then

O/S reports that Fox still injured, so I guess Wright will continue at left back. Fitzgerald in for Nicholls I assume, otherwise probably the same as Tuesday, with Leary having to sit on the bench?

I'd avoid Bar Sport tomorrow, it will be full of glory hunting Man Utd and Liverpool idiots because their match is at lunchtime.

just got the star...what a difference in styles...Halsall refuses to give anything away about tomorrows team...where as merson would have already told anyone who wanted to know...his team...tictacs...and substitutions...well done mick.
