    Last? I think it can get better.

    So, Reice Charles Cooke...

    And it is about development and showing the ability to make progress. The same applies to Maddison, Lameries, Armstrong, Murphy, Kent and Stokes. None are the finished article and there is plenty of football to play. One of the exciting things about this team is we do have headroom to improve...

    Joe Cole

    For me the question is did he come here to get fit or to get match fit? There is a difference, I would have thought it was the latter of the two. If it was to get match fit, for the time he has been here he is labouring. I have my doubts he can really cut the mustard anymore but I would be...

    Agreed, we have young players who are learning. We are not the finished article some believe and promotion is not a given. But we have come along way from last season.

    You see it every week attackers trying to block keepers even putting arms round them in a bear hug. Armstrong does it for us. The first reaction of most keepers is to get their arms up so any tugging pulling is visible to the referee. It smacks of naivety to me from RCC and Haynes...

    A superb picture from yesterday

    a fitting tribute and very spontaneous. Thanks for posting the picture.

    First up I haven't seen any replay of it yet....but you said you watched it 10 to 15 times to be sure. That is what weakens your case. Because from what I see in every game I watch, at corners it is 6 grown men on each side having a wrestling match with fouls going on all over the place. So it...

    Let's be honest every corner is a pushing and shoving match.....I think you are weakening your own case now.

    The two most formidable warriors are patience and time. Tolstoy. At times our league position flatters us, but lets remember where we were last year.

    Atmosphere today

    Players have to spark the crowd. Then the crowd become the fire.

    Joe Cole

    Vincelot breaks things up he does all the graft and lots of little things that never take the headlines. He is the reason Fleck is a different player to last year. The reason JOB looks less like a headless chicken. Cole's job is to create and so far he has done it from a free kick and a...

    Tudgay looked sharp at the start of the season.

    And The Cracks are Beggining to Show

    I think they both have qualities and room for development. Kent has great skill and great at drawing two defenders but needs to learn when to lay it off and pick a pass. Murphy always looks out of sorts when marked by a midfielder with a fullback covering. He comes into his own when he just...

    And The Cracks are Beggining to Show

    Our season hinges on players developing Armstrong Murphy Lamieras Madderson. RCC Phillips and Burge look the most unlikely Cole looks great on paper but less so on the pitch. Free-kicks and corners aren't enough. Centre of defence still a problem due to injuries. Still a work in...

    Mowbray

    Sounded rather flat to me. He knows we have allowed too many sucker punches recently, thrown away 3 fairly easy wins. A long way to go in this season folks.

    New goalie needed

    I agree especially in injury time. during the game it can box you in invite pressure leaving you no outlet. But in the least few minutes I agree perhaps you should be asking TM not me?

    New goalie needed

    Defenders have to take responsibility as well for that goal. We allowed them to build up pressure with crosses....the only way they were going to score.

    Vincelot for me TM's best signing by far

    Oldham (Home) Match Thread

    Cole unfit at 34 isn't what we need. Experienced keeper we do need and some extra cover at centre half (if Turners injury is as bad asit seems). A win was all important today not the performance. Jimmy deserved a win.
