10 - THE OFFICIAL MATCHDAY PROGRAMME OF OLDHAM ATHLETIC FOOTBALL CLUB BOUNDARY BULLETIN - 11 THAT PENALTY!

Latics legend Andy Barlow opened up about the thoughts running through his mind before Neil Redfearn dispatched THAT penalty against Sheffield Wednesday in 1990..

"I picked myself with blood dripping everywhere and saw Redders (Neil Redfearn) come over to pick the ball up and to be honest with you, I'd never done this before with Redders about penalties, but my first thought was 'I'm not sure if I want to watch this'. “I was like ‘Redders you can't miss this one this is one you mustn't miss it’ was going through my head. I remember walking back up the pitch because I was always on the half-way line when we had a penalty, so I had the outside view looking in. “It took a while to get the crowd off the pitch and all the rest of it and I was just thinking 'Shall I watch? Shall I not?' and "Redders don't miss, please do not miss it' and this is a guy who you'd put your house on to score from the spot, he used to score them with his eyes shut. In the end I watched it, but it took me ages to convince myself that I had to watch it and it was a great moment for me, the fans and the club.” Andy Barlow BOUNDARY BULLETIN - 13 THE NAME GAME...
