So why the need to ram the point home? But look, Saint Micky can't be questioned so who cares about doing the right thing by people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think he should name Hogan as Captain and then not select him, that would be a bit weird wouldn't it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could play a cryptic game in his first post match presser. ‘Hogan on the bench and Conlon named as captain Micky, is that for today or a permanent change?’ (Taps his nose) - ‘look with your eyes.’ ‘I have, and he’s not Captain and Tom is’ ‘Well there you go. As I always say, if you can’t change the captain - change the Captain. ‘I don’t know what that means.’ ‘Work it out.’ ‘Is Tom the Captain.’ ’You tell me’ ’Thanks for your time Micky’ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Trying to stear this thread back away from the attention seeker So another week has gone by and we are still a couple of players light fingers crossed something happens next week. I'm not as confident as I'd like to be right now. 2 more should sort the starting 11 out kind of feel we might need a couple more after that to add that little bit of depth though.

Still hopeful we will use the loan market in the next couple of weeks to at least bolster the squad with a couple who are better than what we currently have. Might not be in time for next week but we should be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Blue Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 1 hour ago, deyres42 said: The bit where someone, presumably not Hogan, leaked to the Oldham Times that he would not be captain regardless if he stayed at the club or not. Why is that MM's fault unless you are accusing him of leaking it? How should we have found out? Wow in the spirit of debate I tried to see your point of view but you have proper done my head in Anyway back to the title of the thread, there isn't many rumours of signings which I can't work out if that is a good or bad thing. Are we better at keeping them under wraps or just no signings imminent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2002 when Dowie took over, he kept Duxbury as club captain but named Matt Appleby as team captain as Duxbury wasn't expected to get as much game time - as it turned out, I think he played a lot more than Appleby. Mellon could have done that, I suppose, but he clearly wants him gone. Walters and Dalby are available... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, we didn't need to find out, it would have happened originally, but look, I am wrong, Saint Micky is right, let's go win the league.

Crusoe Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 (edited) When did disagreement become something that had to be repeated over and over ad nauseam, verging on trolling? I’m on the fence about MM, not at all convinced, but manage not to post a dozen times a day pointing it out. Probably should report myself to the mods.

We have Norwood and Kay in the gym and Garner a little further out. An additional two more as you say and I’ll be more confident that we have a chance of being up there.
