CraigBOTN Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Hi Oldham fans, Hope you are all well. I wanted to just drop in as it may be a video of interest to many of you. I am a presenter on Back of the Net, an AFC Bournemouth channel. Yesterday, ahead of our FA Cup game I interviewed and discussed Oldham and memories with a very famous fan... Professor Brian Cox. I hope you don't mind me posting this but I thought it would be of interest to many of you. For the video see below. Please do feel free to leave your thoughts and all the very best for the rest of the season. Craig 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never really seen him connected to Latics much in the past. Still enjoyed it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Not gona lie, that was probably the best 40mins lve ever spent on youtube. The man is a prophet. If l ever do actually give up and disappear from 'real life' for longer than 12 months and you were so inclined to care to find me, just search for prof Cox cults and you'll probably find me there with a couple of your wives. Love that man. Kudos to the show for the questions, excellent questions, no doubt Sir Bri paid compliments to them too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al_bro Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 That was a very interesting listen. Brian Cox is so articulate and interesting to listen to. You never get the impression from him that he seems superior, like some people who probably aren't as clever as him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Og Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I think he was in the first year when I was in the sixth form; one of my many tenuous claims to fame. Sadly none of them are any better than tenuous.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 That man has such a wonderfully soothing voice. I could listen to it all day. I think we can forgive him not turning upto home games against Colchester on a Tuesday night if he's trying to understand and educate mankind about the universe. It's sort of a bigger deal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He says he teaches 1st. year students at Manchester Uni. and refers to it as up there. I was thinking he lived in London or somewhere down south. Perhaps he has two homes.

Longlostfan Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 In the biog for (one of ) his book(s) it says he is a Prof at Manchester but lives in London. I don't think too many Profs spend a lot of time lecturing first years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
