bucksred Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 Lee Johnsons team were by far the better side, organised, disciplined, sharp into the tackle, worked as a team. The only thing they were as bad as us wastheir equal inability to convert chances.On yesterdays performance, he is gonna be a much better manager than he was a player. Respect to him for that. More idea than our cheerless, joyless negative managers post match waffle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Tansley Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Oldham played in Lee Johnson's style. Neat and tidy - but with a sense of purpose as well. If that's indicative of how he has got Oldham playing, on limited resources, I'm very impressed - and wouldn't say its impossible he could be a manager at AG. Wait what?

glynriley Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 I thought Oldham were over physical all game which largely went unpunished by the totally inept officials Constant pushing, a two footed challenge on Bobby Reid that he only just negotiated and a fullback who, after being unable to prevent the ball going out for a goal kick to us, then decided to pick the ball up and jog to the edge of our penalty area before dropping the ball, all done in full view of the referee, who should have booked him for a blatant piece of gamesmanship. No I'm not having it that they were better than us All stuff we never do, we're too nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Running Man Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Oldham were in this division last year and the year before and were playing well under Dickov. We are a mixture of L2 players or players that have been at clubs at a higher level but not played much football. Got to be patient, get behind the team and hope that things improve.

No I'm not having it that they were better than us a good manager/head coach would of reacted to that and told our players to be more physical unfortuantly we don't have a good head Coach/manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cider_dog Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 I don't care what anyone says about LJ. He was wearing a three piece suit FFS! Never rated him, then and now. As for 'class act', did anyone really expect him to slate the club during his post match interview? How deluded are some people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISTOL86 Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Oldham wanted EVERYTHING more than we did. Their (on paper) considerably weaker side than our own played considerably better than we did. A bit more quality in their team and they would have scored more. Their wingers consistently left our (apparently excellent) fullbacks for dead, and with a better ball across or better positioning from a striker, they would have scored 2 or 3. For me they were the perfect example of getting the absolute best from limited resources. Not one name on that teamsheet that I knew a great deal about, or would - on paper - replace one of ours with, yet they played like the home team. First to every 50/50, won the midfield battle, defended better than we did.... LJ clearly has something about him to get them playing as well as they did on Saturday.

In his interview he mentioned it was his old wedding suit, why he wore it specifically on Saturday I have no idea, maybe a good luck charm.
