Time to bring youth team right winger Alfie Atherton into the first team squad, best prospect I've seen since Tarky. I see a combination of Rick Holden and Neil Adams in his style of play. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as any winger selected doesn't put over crosses 8 Mile high like Stobbs was prone to doing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteG Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Think i'm happy for Mellon to assess the squad now and decide where and what he needs. I'm fully confident he will quickly know exactly what we need to win football matches at this level on a regular basis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardie Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 I can see him maybe bringing in a few players, if the funds are in place and working with what he has inherited. I have the inclination his playing style may take a while to embed itself into the current team and I am not getting carried away with expecting Latics to start zooming up the league. The next two games this week? I predict a draw at best with 'Dale and what really should be a win at AFC Fylde. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I’m not expecting miracles but I’d like to think with all MM’s talk of commitment, professionalism, playing for the people etc that we might manage to get past half time without falling asleep . I think Rochdale will be tough as it always is. Fylde surely has to be a win but who knows. I really hope though above all that this isn’t a replica of DU, where week after week, month after month of poor results we were told “patience!! We are rebuilding remember , stop moaning etc” , surely we will see some early glimmers of the sunlit uplands of success a bit sooner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only three of Unsworth's starting XI from his first game remain at the club, only one (Sheron) is a regular starter. We're missing a couple of pieces of the jigsaw right now whereas back then we didn't even even know if the jigsaw was Big Ben or the Blackpool Tower. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still watch us some days and wonder if we recruited wisely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the odd last minute goal bursting the back of the net just when all the fans start leaving … (not our net) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
