Tommy_Fent Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 It's been great attending various "Evenings with Joe Royle/Andy Ritchie/Rick Holden etc" but I can't help but feel those who are a few years older than me will appreciate these events more than me. I was at the Rodger Wylde night before Christmas now he played for Latics before I was born even if it was still a fantastic talk with a player who certainly had some stories to tell. But it got me thinking, of the players we've had in recent seasons, which ones will we still be talking about in 20 years time? Who can you imagine filling a pub full of the next generation if Latics fans for an evening? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forte_Baby Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Sean Gregan one was good a few seasons back Craig Dudley was decent good to hear from a pro whos main career was at lower levels & how the team spirit changed when Moore took over.

Takemeanywhere Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Look at the names mentioned in your opening post. Joe Royle: 22 years at the club Andy Ritchie: 13 years at the club over his two spells Rick Holden: 5 years at the club over two spells Players simply don't stay that long nowadays and the question should be: Who will we remember in twenty years?

pukka Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Of the recent past: Eyresy. Dux Shez They would all be worth listening to. Harkins "I once ripped Peterborough to bits" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24hoursfromtulsehill Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Lee Hughes. A blow-by-blow account of Dog-gate would be fascinating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldhamoafc Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Duxbury Eyres number 2 Sheridan Taylor Gregan Random one but maybe a Paul warne would be interesting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stagger Lee Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Simon Corney - 20 years from now when he is no longer connected to the latics would make a great interview. Remove the emotion and the need for keeping his opinions and dealings secret that he has to do currently and we could get a real insight into how the club was run and the reasons for many (in our opinion) strange or brave decisions.
