Strongest line up possible today. Big Joe looks far more assured than calamity connolly. Ht goaless is very representative of the match even with lack quality final ball, shot. All to play for.

The scoreline didn't accurately reflect the game, but we were very poor, and them not quite so much
Palmer should have a sleepless night over his miss at 0-0 that could likely have seen us get at least a point
It was the flatest atmosphere at a game in ages. I fear that attendances will plummet as we will hopefully keep our necks above water and the season will fizzle out into another non-entity
Started well in both half’s, but our final ball was poor. Palmer missed a guilt edged chance mid way through the second half, the ball was played over the top, the defender misjudged it, keeper comes running out all he has to do is keep it on target and over the keeper, ball goes wide. If he scores that it’s a totally different game. In the end we ran out of ideas and Oldham caught us on the break time and again after we messed around in midfield. A very frustrating game in the end.
