sheddingswasus Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 I thought that, but read he was Oldham bound. Only reporting what I read. Think it was on the Dewsbury forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob95 Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 (edited) 30th of September coming round so probably be some announcements after that . But concerning though that it was generally believed that our new unannounced coach had a say in the signings , we now know this wasn't the case and either said coach has backed out as doesn't fancy it ,or the signings have all been Fordy's and there was no coach lined up. I know pro sport is cut throat or in Roughyeds case semi-pro, but if what I'm hearing is true and I have no reason to doubt the family friend ,who knows one of our now former players , then Fordy is out of order and shown absolutely no class . Most of, if not all of the not retained/released players have been informed of their release by text message , no phone call or meeting just a copy and paste text , not how I would like deal with any staff under my management etc. but hey morals , politeness are more important to me than hiding behind a text message to avoid confrontation as that shows weakness .

sheddingswasus Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 You clearly have an issue with Mike Ford, and this is showing through in your posts. Friend of a friend of a friend etc.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Art of Hand and Foot Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Fordy has so much passion for Oldham. Now there will be some people who will be upset by his passion. Tough sh!t, I'm with fordy. There will be some upset and yes some mistakes. If he can get good players who want to play for the shirt, then I'm with him. Remember he's put his money where his mouth is. I work on the principle that if I'm being slagged off I must be doing something right! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedford Roughyed Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 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. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happyed Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 I guess that means we retain- morgan, whittel, Baker, Wilkinson, paga, Cameron, Hirst, Moran, rawsthorne, Johnson, Ellis I think that’s good business if we can strengthen from here 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheddingswasus Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 Interesting to see James Greenwood, another Oldhamer released by Salford. 32 now so may be looking to go part time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheddingswasus Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 would be a good signing. We will have a top pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happyed Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 They’ve missed a lot of games this season some of these senior SL/Champ players. Fordy is taking a bit of a punt that they will stay fit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best to the lads moving on 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t believe a professional operator like Ford would send a text message to let players go. I would love to know what went on in the final 3 games ?

sheddingswasus Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 There are four good young players there. Pleased particularly for Cameron and Hirst. They will develop well with the senior players we have signed 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happyed Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 (edited) Bit surprised we didn’t give slater another season. It’ll a very different spine next season. Interesting to see where paga fits Edited September 22 by Happyed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaw llewellyn Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 The club did say they wanted to build a team for the championship even if we were in league 1. Whilst I did like a lot of the players on the released list they didn't perform in league 1 and I guess the club have decided that they wouldn't improve enough to become championship players. I do find it odd that all these decisions are being made before a coach is appointed though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
