I had a flick through their results that season They had 3 0-0s in a row Didn't realize it was 2 points for a win, makes more sense now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played on both Monday nights and now a Friday night. I'm annoyed on their behalf and glad that's not us. And Burnley's first 2 aways switched to Fridays, the curse of the relegated Prem teams. Fuck 'em, especially Burnley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyrotten Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Oldham live on BT sport at tea time, v Dorking. That's a reality check if ever there was one, but probably first time they've been live on TV for donkeys years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
