10 - THE OFFICIAL MATCHDAY PROGRAMME OF OLDHAM ATHLETIC FOOTBALL CLUB BOUNDARY BULLETIN - 11 FINE LINES IN BIG GAMES... Former Latics manager looks back at our FA Cup tie against Liverpool at in January 2012 and recalls how it could’ve been a whole different game after we took the lead.

“We actually played really well that day. I’ll always remember scoring an unbelievable goal to put us ahead. “I don’t know if the fans will remember it but just before Liverpool equalised, was through one-on-one with Pepe Reina and he was at a tight angle but if he squares it, we go 2-0 up. However, that’s the fine lines in the big games as we saw the following year, we need to take the chances.”
