Another great day to cap a fantastic season. We actually started quite poorly making a few errors and Workington played well in the first 20 mins and had some lovely kicks keeping us deep in our own half. Once we just went forward we dominated and rolled them down the middle. Defence was supreme again with Mo's shot on their full back being one of the hits of the season.

Mo himself was excellent as was Dixon on the other wing who has been a superb signing. Ted and Sidlow were excellent starting at prop and Johnson and Kopzcak were great off the bench as well. Wildie who is Mr Consistent had another cracker.

Can't wait for next season already.

What a long-range try that was !  What a crash-tackle that was ! What a slick pass that was ! What a game that was ! What a fantastic season that was !

As a season ticket holder I think all the incentives are brilliant. It may mean I pay more than someone else but that's my contribution to the club under the stronger together banner. Incentives

Having followed them to every match ( except Cornwall) I am going to be at a loss what to do on a Sunday! 

Come along to Hornets…we have another month to play!

What shirt were we wearing today? A one-off or next season’s home shirt?

It was a one off to celebrate the league championship. It had league winner 2024 or similar on the shirt. They had replicas on sale but all sold out by 1.40 when we tried to get them.

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!

Just a thought - we have had 7 clean sheets this season. I wonder if it's a record?

And weirdly - in the last two matches (I think) we've scored exactly half the points in the first half and half in the second!!

Yesterday’s crowd at BP was the second highest in the Championship and League 1 this weekend. Only 3,006 at Odsal was higher.

Great season and a wonderful day yesterday. Well done to everyone concerned. Already looking forward to next season. Good luck to our neighbours, Rochdale, in the play offs. It would be great for them to come up as well and also give us our usual local derby games to look forward to. 

I was a bit disappointed to find out long after the game finished that the Southward who turned out for Workington yesterday is the grandson of the late, great, Ike Southward. After the game finished some of the Workington players came over to the corner where I was standing taking photos and young Southward was stood right next to me. Had I known he was Ike's grandson I would have had a word as Ike was one of my Oldham heros back in the day.

Good luck in the championship Oldham.
