Official Match Thread Oldham Athletic v Southend United

[brigg blue]

2 points dropped there, we should have won that one. I think we will just about have enough to stay up but we need goals badly

 

[Southminster Shrimper]

You are so full of **** steve. I’m annoyed at myself that I keep biting, but Jesus

I get where you're coming from but he does it on purpose. Proper troll. Well I hope he does anyway!!

 

[Barling Magna]

15 shots, 4 on target versus 8 shots for Oldham and only one on target. We should have won that.....

 

[Mr Browns Ghost]

Really disappointed we didn’t win that but surely even MM’s biggest critic has to give credit about how hard we are to beat. Just need to get the balance right and get some goals!

Get in the bin ffs ...

 

[kentblues]

Pathetic- 2 points dropped against an incredibly poor opposition. The lack of ambition will see us relegated.

Substitutions appalling.

CBs at RB and CF, never ending list of midfielders who will probably never score more than Clifford in a season, and an active desire to keep anyone off the pitch who has any history of being able to put the ball in the back of the net.

 

[fleabag1]

The teams is playing well much better and we are making chances defence looks top of the table midfield created chances that should be gobbled up unfortunately. Power puff up front again

 

[gatecrasher]

No more Acquah, not until we have pulled clear of bottom two - we had so many chances to win but unfortunately almost all of them landed on his head or feet and he promptly found the keeper or corner flag. He may come good but right now draws against dross like this

 

[Jay_SUFC]

We really are dog **** aren’t we genuinely don’t know why I bother watching

No, we are no worse than most of the other sides in this division, but, I'm sorry, we have a pathetic negative manager

 

[Austin the Shrimper]

terrible negative subs by MM. Should have won that.

 

[geoffmundo]

2 points dropped...............safety safety is not the right approach for teams like Oldham, Cheltenham yes, Morecambe or Tranmere yes, but Oldham?

 

[meerkat54]

Into the drop zone again, and another powder puff attack performance.

 

[Tinks]

I just don’t understand his thinking on the subs

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

moan moan moan - we got a point. Is that not worth having then?

Not really when Barrow won.

 

[Jay_SUFC]

Think that's a bit harsh; we actually looked worse we he came off

 

[Hegman]

Playing to our best and still only drawing - signs of relegation

 

[crangoner]

Don't understand how we could have dropped 2 points when we were never in control of 3 at any point in the match ?

 

[Shrimpet steve]

You do need to prove it

I'm sorry but it doesent take a rocket scientist to realise if u are in control of the game and u need to score a goal and the players playing arent doing that u then bring on recoignised past and present goal scorers capable of scoring a goal!!

And this ladies and gentlemen is a clear example of someone not having a bloody clue. Remind me how many chances we had when he came off? We ended the game with Greg bloody halford up top. Give your head a big old wobble

 

[blueblueblue]

I swear I come away from watching every game with a leg ache. I'm trying to kick every ball at goal (wollop have some). If I don't die from a heart attack watching this **** week in week out, I will die with a leg ache

 

[amsemp]

Why on Earth did he take Emile off, makes absolutely no sense whatsoever

That one really surprised me. Just didn’t get it. On another day he would’ve had 2 or 3 but for a good save, the crossbar and a poor shot. Don’t think he looked like he was blowing. Is he one to struggle playing 90mins? I didn’t think so.

But that was easily one of Emile’s best games so far this season. They didn’t know how to deal with him and he caused constant problems.
