another fan Posted December 5, 2010 Author Share Posted December 5, 2010 i remember Central Park for all the wrong reasons Challenge Cup semi in which Oldham were cheated out of a place in a cup final at Wembley? Incedently (spelling) the same weekend that the tics played Notts Forest in a league cup final if I am correct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oafc88 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Challenge Cup semi in which Oldham were cheated out of a place in a cup final at Wembley? Incedently (spelling) the same weekend that the tics played Notts Forest in a league cup final if I am correct Im sure someone here has mentioned in the past that the ref of that game was being given abuse as he was leaving the pitch by some irate Oldham fans for some shocking decisions apparently and he turned round to say 'don't you already have one team in a final that weekend? or something similar, im sure someone else could clear that up? On a side note, even though i was about 1 at the time, what a weekend at Wembely that would of been for the town of Oldham! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
