Oldham Athletic (H) League 1 Tuesday 13/9/11.

[Exile]

Just got to work. Looks rubbish.

[Ancient Moaner]

Bum...

Look on the bright side..................

Is THAT a brightside? I have to work with seven big headed, full of thier own importance, Huddersfield fans, tomorrow morning is going to be hell on wheels, they'll be full of how good they are, as I suffer the indignaty of three defeats in a row! :(
And how MMF will ram down my throat about Sheff United not being all that good REALLY.

[Neuromantic]

Just got to work. Looks rubbish.

:mrgreen:

But in all seriousness - this is looking like the biggest pressure point in Dean Smith's tenure. Needs to make a change!

[Sadsfan]

Early season optimism fading fast.

[Neuromantic]

Early season optimism fading fast.

I know a lot of us have been saying since pre-season that the squad was clearly inadequate. Taundry and Chambers are too similar - we have been crying out for another style of midfielder.

That said, we may still turn this round. But, our choices off the bench are poor.

[Sadsfan]

Nicholls and patterson on for grigg and hurst. midfield just don't create enough. i'll settle for fifth from bottom at end of the season.

[Neuromantic]

Nicholls blasts a chance over the bar. Rubbish - pay him up.

[Neuromantic]

Butler should have been sent off apparently.

[Ancient Moaner]

Three points off the relegation zone...sounding all too familiar, bookies favourites for relagation striving hard to prove 'em right, when will this perenial dissapointment ever end? :(

Bonser out!

(haven't seen that for a while :wink: )

cheque book out :wink:

[Neuromantic]

A front 3 of Nicholls, Jarvis and Paterson sounds terrifying to any opposition defence.

[Ancient Moaner]

Looking at the team after subs, it just don't look right, disjointed, uneven, unsettlingly frantic, very worrying...another home defeat on Saturday and we will be in REAL trouble....... :(

[Ancient Moaner]

A front 3 of Nicholls, Jarvis and Paterson sounds terrifying to any opposition defence.

And it's very windy..might blow Patterson over!

[Exile]

Is it one of those games where everyone's up for the last 60 seconds or does the ref have to put us out of our misery?

[Sadsfan]

Feel sorry for Smith, dire budget and having to scrape the barrel of cast offs. only the leech to blame for that.

:D

There in lies (one of) the problem(s).

:?

Don't start! :wink:

[Neuromantic]

I feel sorry for him too. Pathetic result.

BONSER OUT. Not an over-reaction - everyone knows my thoughts on this.

I wish he would sell the freehold, give the club to someone who wants to run it and let Deano sign players with a decent budget.

Pathetic.

[Ancient Moaner]

But these are supposed to be professional footballers, does it not hurt to lose three on the trot? I'm furious if my 5 a side team gets beat...have they no pride?

[fensaddler]

Leaving the country next month. Can't come too soon...

[Exile]

Leaving the country next month. Can't come too soon...

trust me, it's painful following from afar. You off to join the convicts or coming to godzone?

What do you mean WILL BE in trouble?

[Surrey Saddler]

Same old stuff. You need to be able to suffer if you support Walsall. :roll:

[Ancient Moaner]

Leaving the country next month. Can't come too soon...

Wish I could join you, then I wouldn't have to make excuses for not going to matches...poor gate again tonight I see..wont be any better Saturday I guess! :?

Convicts mate - Melbourne. Couldn't get a job in godzone, and anyway, you don't have any Ikeas over there :shock: .

[SheffieldSaddler]

Oh dear. Thats 3 defeats on the bounce.
Although Smith as no doubt a poor budget, something doesnt seem right somewhere along the way.
After the home defeat against Brentford and the apparent big bust up in dressing room, the team have responded with 2 poor performances against 2 poor teams.

I must admit, when people were saying that was a good thing - I was a bit surprised. Negativity breeds negativity.

[BathSaddler]

Was it a case of no Macken, no guile?

Attendance 3,250.

Apparently its a superb management sign according to MMF....................
Sounds it
