coolie Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Take it Restall will be missed at Oldham, and welcomed at Dewsbury... 21 trys in 23 games is that correct? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Art of Hand and Foot Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Disappointed about restall. But it happens. He's going closer to home. Plenty more full backs in the sea. As for bouncing back up!!!? That's what they said about us 12 months ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, disagree. We are Oldham. We are much bigger . We need to believe we're bigger. 200k population. Dewsbury, Max 55k. We gave him his chance. But hey these things happen!

He's going to go if he thinks he'll get better chances elsewhere. It's a better club at the end of the day. What has a town's population got to do with the size of a club? Unfortunately Rugby league isn't as relevant in Oldham as it once was. The size of the crowds at games is a big indicator. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I should've said is we have a far greater potential than the likes of Dewsbury. Hence the population reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrewsbury roughyed Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Shame about Restall. Good player, Very fit. Intelligent player, too. Took a step up league and level-wise to play for Oldham and succeeded; up a league level to Dewsbury, where I can see him continuing to do well. He never gave anything less than 100% for us. Good luck to him. Interesting to see that another who effectively relaunched his career through Oldham, Tyler Dupree, now representing England at Knights level and a first team regular for Salford.

That's probably why the fan base is tiny. I hate to sound negative but it's just how I see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the increase in support due to playing at BP would cover any increased costs. Let's hope the various parties involved can see the benefits for all concerned and come up with a long term deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bedford Roughyed Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Bit late sorry! 1 With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game.

The Art of Hand and Foot Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 (edited) Although I'm pleased at Kian Morgan re-signing I'm disappointed in the grammar used in getting us to wait with baited breath for 7pm. "Transfer" news. This wasn't a "transfer" so please get it right. Details are important!
