What happened at Oldham?

We were in a pub in Oldham when we heard the game was postponed. We stopped off in Wetherby on the way home and the police came in the pub we where in and told us to go. The landlord was furious with them, no trouble and he was making a fortune.
I drove to Oldham for the re arranged match and I'm sure Ritchie came on as sub, with an audible groan from the Boro Fans.

More bogus 'Premier League' stattery being churned out today I see. For the record, of the 12 original members of the League,three have been or are in non-league so only nine clubs can get to the Premier League without having been a non-league club.All the rest will have been non-league at some time or other.

If MK Dons go up this season and next they won't have been....🙂
 
I was pretty sure you were right. Then I checked and they just surged with Palace going down that year and then Oldham came down the next. Did we play them in the cup that season or was the match you were thinking about the next season?
Didn't Oldham have about 4 games in hand to play at the end of that season?
And won them all to stay up.

Edit
I've checked. They won their last 3 games to stay up. Only one was in hand.

Like Andy Ritchie, Roger Palmer always seemed to score against us.

I was at that NYD game in the rain. What a miserable day that was.
 
Cos I was working I only realised when I watch MOTD and Quest that I'd recorded that they'd played the last 10 minutes later - which was the right thing to do.
So Oldham and Scunthorpe have left the EFL
