Being an Oldham fan i have to disagree, yeah our gates are poor at the moment, having spent 16 years in the 3rd tier of English football can test the resolve of even the most ardent supporter. When we was in the Prem every match was pretty much at capacity, and before we were all seating we...

It's too be expected from the plastic latics, basically a non league club until uncle Dave showed up with his millions . Please smash them in the next round

We average around 4k and thats really poor to be honest but your talking to the wrong chap about that I attend our home games and quite a few away, it's the other idiots in my town that decides to walk around on a Saturday afternoon shopping wearing a City/United shirt. Until your team...

That's why I didn't say anything previously I thought the reason the atmosphere was a bit subdued was because playing a league 1 side is hardly going to get the blood pumping. So when I read the OP and he said he thought the atmosphere was ok and better than league games it gave me a WTF...

Hate to break it to you but if you thought that support was ok against us then I'm lost for words. The only time I heard the Everton fans was just after each goal and then only for a few secs. Watched it back since on telly and you can pretty much just hear Oldham fans. Good news though is we...

Just like to say when I got back to my car at the leisure centre, there was an ambulance their with paramedics doing cpr on an Everton supporter, just found out that unfortunately he had a heart attack and passed away, puts football into perspective. My condolences goes out to his family and...

Oh when the blues and yeah its sung different to spurs etc and it was you should be out robbing houses.

Too be honest, we're far better than our league position suggests, i know alot of fans say this about their team, but with us it generally is the case. Dickov was a terrible manager should have gone long before he did, the cup victories just prolonged his stay. The team now is showing the...

Yeah wasxa good night although I have a sore throat from all the singing. I parked at the Walton sports centre got there about 5:45 walked to the ground hoping to find somewhere to sit and eat. Ended up walking to McDonalds it was packed and ended up eating outside on the wall. As for the...

No probs, think i ready your preview before the 1st game, was mildly amusing, i didn't find it offensive but takes a fair bit to offend me (y)

Referring to us as Manc's might wind a few up, and we refer to Wigan as the plastic Latics, so maybe turning that on it's head in some way might get good results (y). Good luck with that mate.

Yeah with them odds, it's deffo worth a flutter, although i've found to my cost that backing Oldham is usually a big no no.

Thanks for all the info, think i'll be parking near walton park, and then find somewhere for refreshments, i'll be arriving fairly early always nice to mix with opposition fans. Really looking forward to the match, expecting to get turned over but stranger things have happened. If we were to...

yeah he's fit, i'd expect him to play.

Thanks for all the help, yeah i'll be taking the m62, after that not too sure, i just stick it in the sat nav :unsure:. Probably would prefer secure car park, within say 10 mins walk to the ground. So which ones would you suggest, so i can stick it in the sat nav, bearing in mind if the match...
