But as I said at the time, Oldham have a brilliant away record! They have had just 2 away defeats all season! Second best in the division.

Let's just see where we are at the end of the season, eh! My expectation has indeed gone up. Pre-season I predicted 7th, but now we have been in the top 6 all season long, I do indeed expect us to finish top 6 and feel anything less will be a failure. Failure simply based on being top 6 all...

I love the stripes!! Memories of 87 and all that.

Yep, but now we understand him and the way he plays. When he first came in we looked disjointed and our pace dropped considerably, because he was putting his foot on the ball and slowing things down.

Which was the game where he was pointing and directing and Armstrong didn't know if he was coming or going? He seemed to be on a different wavelength and therefore our attacking threat was ragged and lacked pace going forwards. One of the first games Cole played in I think.

Yep. It has hurt us badly. Thing is, think we all pretty much knew Reda Johnson wasn't going to last, so perhaps we shouldn't have renewed his contract after all. Maybe if we had, had the likes of a Cargill or Stephens in from the onset we wouldn't have suffered the problems we had.

It's took time to accomodate him and I think it has cost us before today, but now we seem to be on the same wavelength as him now and today we reaped the benefits.

No, maybe the Newcastle United flag is for one of the other Newcastle United players who played for us today. ;)

Yep, played the right team at the right time today. Match made in heaven.

I think I have marked down slightly due to the fact that Bury were so poor. Would have scored both Cargill and Stephens higher if it wasn't for the fact that the opposition rarely tested them. Same with Fleck, who had a great game, but they gave him far too much space. Sent from my Hudl 2...

I am not judging him. I am saying I will judge him at the end of the season.

He just wasn't ready. Was expecting a shot I think.

I just think it didn't quite come off for him today, but no-one can question his effort. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

Not so sure now we have done the business today. Based on the last two games of 4 points gained, we would have to be very confident going into the Fleetwood game now surely. That 5 point gap has now given us some breathing room.

RCC 7 - Assured today. One ball where both he and a defender went for this same ball, otherwise thought he had a good game. Ricketts 6 - pretty steady today. Cargill 7 - very solid, calm and assured. Stephens 7 - See above Stokes 7 - back to his best. Vincelot 7 - missed him badly Fleck 7...
