astottie Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 During our promotion season ( his only full season) Redfearn was outstanding for us and a major reason why we went up and won the league.I spoke to him once during the season and went out with some mates with him just after the end of the season and he was a really nice guy, I read his autobiography a couple of years ago and every chapter is basically the same. Joined club, settled in well, enjoy it and really impress. get left out for a game or two and fall out with manager (his fault not mine) somebody else comes in and makes an offer and I leave (for footballing reasons). Joined club, settled in well, enjoy it .......... The guy is a real Latics legend even if only for a brief time and for younger fans I really hope you can one day experience the emotion of that crazy afternoon. Mind you if today is anything to go by it might not be far off.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palmer1 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Joe wanted to put Redders on the right in place of Adams and bring back milligan Redders wanted to play in the middle and in the end refused to play on the right after the season he just had. they fell out fell out about it. Joe brought back Milli and shipped Reddders out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laticacid Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Have him on the back of my shirt, for that 1 magnificent season , best attacking midfielder I have ever seen at latics. Oh and he got 1 or 2 important goals for the club !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyPimp Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Most have forgotten that he started slowly for us. I remember sticking up for him early doors when others were getting on his back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stargazer Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 He started slowly because he was played out of position out wide . The following season he took Milligan's central role & was imo the greatest central midfield player for Oldham in my lifetime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
