Oddly enough we, Oldham, did the same and it seemed to work a treat. Craven, standoff at full back and Astley, full back at stand off.

https://www.facebook.com/share/r/6irvGSKyAaAtbHag/ Hmmm. This reel came up on my fb page. I don't know whether there was a penalty awarded. Looks high to me. Nb: you may have copy link to see it. Hall/charnock high tackle on Elijah Taylor close to the line. Some comments reckon it was a penalty try.

Which club would you invest in?

Tbh, it's not just Oldham fans, it's fans of other teams and the bookies. We beat Halifax and Barrow in competitive matches. Drew with a full London team in a friendly. And beat Keighley, arguably our nearest rivals, again in a friendly. Lost to Swinton and York and suddenly we are deluded, not that good and unfit!!!? For the first time in a quarter of a century we have hope and we're not going to give that up.

Good luck with that. It was vodka!

When you think about it, we beat Halifax and barrow, then lost to Swinton and York. So in effect, yes we are mid table championship.

I'm reminded of when Blackpool panthers under Martin Crompton had a good cup run and it totally ruined their league performance. So let's focus on what's importance and that's the League. Perhaps we were all drunk with expectation. The problem now is other teams know we can be beaten and they will up their game.

We've got six points on the odds.

I can't remember, but what happened to him?

O'Keefe appealed. Found not guilty. Don't know what broadbent got, any ideas?

Interest in Oldham in the media

Was it ever thus! Back in the day we had the A team . Players would then be called accordingly. Charlie and Roundy being first choice second row, then when needed Newton and Allen would be called up. We have a 28 man squad, someone is going to lose out, it happens and to intimate that there is unrest , at this stage, is just daft. -
Completely agree. I was trying to keep out this argument. I will say,however, trial by social media is a scourge. He's not been found guilty of anything, therefore, innocent.So please stop it! As for the game, I noticed the hairnets are saying they have learned from the loss and are now ready for the rematch. To my mind we took our foot off the gas in the second half Hopefully we, too, have learned a thing or two and we will be giving it full throttle for the full 80!

Was working today. Listened to last five minutes on radio Manchester on my way home. Anyone listening would think Oldham weren't involved. Even Royton's own jack dearden was going on about Rochdale this and Rochdale that!!!!? As they hadn't mentioned the score I thought for a few minutes that we'd lost!!!!

I genuinely believe that George will have a go at pro RL before he retires. If we'd got promoted last year then it would have been, with us, sooner rather than later. The question I have is, because I'm not au fait with union, is a fly half the same as a stand off half? -
Or turnstiles even. . Good old Jeff Edwards!

The Joseph Platt trophy. Odds

Trouble with odds in a cup competition is that we could draw Wakefield in the next round.
