Re: Oldham

Watching the recent friendlies, the BIG difference that marked the superiority of higher league teams was not necessarily individual skill but how,
when in possession, their players immediately looked for space to receive the ball.
PNE in particular could win the ball back in their own box and with 2 or 3 lightning passes, be inside ours.
I was amazed how often the blighters always seemed to have unmarked men available & always found them with pinpoint accuracy, all at double-quick time.
I think most of our opponents would agree that we are a team who try to follow the philosophy of the 'beautiful game'
I truly believe our current squad have shown the ability to achieve great things this season.
