Nicky’s leadership and experience meant I had no hesitation in handing him the captain’s armband on his debut and even at the age of 34, his energy levels and endeavour are an example to everyone. Nicky was instrumental in forcing the winning goal against Newport and I was also delighted to see Davis Keillor-Dunn on the scoresheet again. I have spoken before about the huge talent Davis possesses and in recent weeks we have seen him make some vital contributions to games. It was, of course, disappointing that we were unable to follow up Saturday’s win with a result at Cheltenham Town in midweek, despite the number of chances created in the first-half. Cheltenham as a team are very streetwise and again it was a lesson to us in how we need to be shrewder in these sort of games. Today we welcome a Salford City side who look set for a strong second-half to the season after climbing their way up into the play-off places. They have a squad full of quality and experience, and like ourselves they will no doubt be striving for greater consistency during their next run of games. There is always The win against Newport County was pleasing on a an extra edge to local fixtures and we know we’ll have to be number of levels, not least because it again showed what at our best against a side who are as good as any at this we are capable of against quality opposition. level. That we have been able to complete the double over one of After a busy few weeks, our schedule now begins to ease the strongest teams in the division after coming from before picking up again towards the end of next month, so a behind on both occasions is a further indication of the good result today would give us a real lift as we plan ahead. potential within our squad and the reason I am excited The division is still very tight and our aim is to make about the future of this young group. progress up that table as quickly as we can. Getting results at home is crucial to the progress of any Games such as the one against Newport must have been team and now we are in the second part of the campaign, it very entertaining for you to watch from home. It isn’t the is important we use the win as a platform to achieve greater same here without you but once again we’ll be doing all we consistency here. can to ensure you have reason to cheer this afternoon. Playing against ten men, especially when you have got to force the game, is never easy, but the players showed great application and our performance was such that the winning margin should have been bigger. A big factor in the turnaround was our use of the wide areas and key to that was the performance of Nicky Adams. Harry BOUNDARY BULLETIN - 03 VISITING BOUNDARY PARK … THE AMMIES MAN AT THE TOP...

  • Push the Boundary Email: [email protected]
    Push The Boundary Email: [email protected] 6 November 2019 Dear Abdallah We are writing to you on behalf of those Oldham Athletic supporters who have concerns about the future of our foot- ball club and in particular those listed at the end of this letter. “Push the Boundary” is a group of supporters who have common concerns that our football club is being run in a way that is contra to its best interests. The group has been founded by four supporters but we believe has the support of a large proportion of the fan base. Following the release of our independent group, signatures supporting this letter to you, have risen to 596 in the space of a week. This clearly shows the level of dissatisfaction and disconnect that sup- porters currently feel, at the current state of our beloved Oldham Athletic Football Club. The purpose of this letter is to express our specific concerns about the direction that Oldham Athletic appears to be taking under the current Board of Directors. We fully appreciate the state that the football club was in at the time that you were in negotiations with the previous owner and that these issues stretch back several years. It is far from ideal that Oldham Athletic Football Club no longer owns Boundary Park or the land upon which the ground is located. This will always hugely impact upon the amount of revenue that the club is able to generate. It was also apparent to most supporters that the club was on the brink of insolvency prior to your purchase.

WWWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWELCOME Good afternoon and welcome to our Northern Premier League game against league leaders Warrington Town. We would like to extend a warm welcome to their players, officials and supporters along with the match officials and hope they enjoy their visit. It is the best part of a month since we shared the points with Morpeth in our last home game and a lot has happened since then. The disappointing FA Cup exit at Skelmersdale was followed by the frustration of our home game against Gainsborough having to be postponed the day before as a precaution following Covid concerns around the visitors. The pandemic continues to have a big impact on our league at the moment with three clubs currently not being able to play for a short period of time. I am sure all other clubs send them their best wishes whilst hoping it is a situation they can avoid themselves. However, the season has taken a turn for the better in the last week with our first win of the season coming in con- vincing fashion at Grantham last Saturday which was then followed up by a hard earned point at FC United in mid- week. Warrington have made another excellent start to the season and arrive at Giant Axe with a three point lead at the top of the table having won five and lost one of their seven games to date.

  • Tiger Rags Phase 1 Guide
    Exhibition guide for phase one: Plurality of Polyester 3 July to 4 September Cabinet 1 Shirt on left: 1976-78 home shirt, number 7, worn by Gordon Nisbet. Stripes returned in 1975 after twelve years of solid amber shirts, but the most striking element of the new kit was the white shorts that created a throwback look, referencing Tigers kits used between World Wars. Shirt advertising was still a few years away, but sportswear firms were pushing boundaries in the 1970s: Europa of Leicestershire became the first supplier to put their logo on a City kit. First used in 1975/76, this shirt design is commonly associated with signed Billy Bremner signing from Leeds United. There were several versions, the first of which had Europa's logo without a wordmark, that was added for 1976/77. For 1978/79, City replaced the monogram with a tiger head crest, at the same time dropping white shorts in favour of the black set previously used with the away kit. Shirt on right: 1992/93 home shirt, number 5, worn by Rob Dewhurst The best designed Hull City kit ever? Not a chance, but certainly the most iconic. Third tier teams rarely get national media coverage, but the 1992/93 home shirt, with it's all over tiger stripe print, ensured its everlasting notoriety. Wild designs were not unusual in the early 1990s, as kit suppliers showed off technological advances in printing, but they tended to be on away kits. Not so with City as Matchwinner took inspiration from the club's nickname.
