Buckshawlatic Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I can't believe I've actually lived to see all of Blackpool, Wigan and....................... Yeovil be in higher leagues than Latics but well done to them, well deserved! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosa Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Sheffield United have to take part in the Johnstones Paint Trophy next season. Yeovil don't. Modern football's not all bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BristolOwl Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Yeovil's success shows that if you're good enough your big enough. I have a strong feeling that Lee Johnson will be in the same mould as Hardwick and Frizzell and get us promoted, even with Corney's dodgy decision-making. It might help persuade the many nay-sayers in Oldham that Championship football at the very least is possible. I've been hearing for 60 years how the town is too small (!?,), poverty-stricken, and united and city too close, div 3 will be full of great teams next season etc. etc. Let's hope we can keep LJ and get promoted playing the brilliant attacking football of his great predecessors. Then the Premiership - Oldham is now in a big conurbation stretching even into Tykeland. The key might be in getting a more positive and ambitious fan-base, once the long-awaited promotion arrives. Clearly we need stability at board level but teams such as Swansea show what can be done with quality leadership and long-term planning with limited resources.

razza699 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Could be massive for us. He should be able to get his dads advice much more so than if they were in the same league. We may get some decent league one players from Yeovil who aren't quite good enough for the Championship. Yeovil might trial players who aren't up to Championship level but good for league one - Johnson Snr will surely give his son a heads up ahead of anyone else I have always dreamed of getting Yeovils offcasts.

tangerinedreams Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Did anybody else read that Yeovil were fined £150k by the FA over a banner, didn't really have time to read it and haven't been able to find it since on Twotter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone paid so they displayed the banner. Dortmund told the FA where to go so probably won't have a banner for Champs League final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't like to hazard a guess as to how much Dortmund would have been charged, he's right- it has gone mad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of talk about the £1500 being for some extra people to hold up any banner. For what amounts to 5 minutes work. Nice work for some.
