Chesterfield or Hartlepool haven't seen the Premier League  


Neither have you....your first game was a good few years after you were relegated.

Anyway...they might be a 'distance' away, but Oldham can just get a direct train here. It's not exactly a hard journey to make.

Oldham haven’t been relevant since Gunnar Halle played for them, I think we’ve had five or six seasons in the second tier since they were last in it.

Just a non-descript Manchester based team like Rochdale and Bury and have been for years. Certainly not a glamour tie nor one I immediately looked for. Relegation had been coming for years they’d been perennial third tier mid tablers for years, not a big club nor a particularly good one. I couldn’t even name a player of there’s without going to Wikipedia now.

Far cry from the 90’s side that were in Premiership for a couple of years.

You've never seen the Premier League though. We have. We won't play in Non-League in the next 50 years at least.

Are you sure ?

That’s what our fans said, that’s what Tranmere fans said. Lincoln, Wrexham, Mansfield...oh and look at your neighbours Stockport. Doesn’t seem five minutes ago since we were playing them in the second tier...whilst you were in the third.

I agree, Rochdale are far better!  

As for saying you won't be non-league in the next 50 years, well I didn't think I'd ever see my team in non-league and I doubt many Chesterfield fans would have too.

Only been to Oldham the once... in between Christmas & New Year  80-81 season

We took the points courtesy of a last minute winner by Tony Ford

What sticks in my mind is when we scored all the Town fans were off their feet celebrating and then in an instant all on our @rses because the terrace had frozen during the game and it was like a sheet of ice by the end

Delusions of grandeur pal mate ! You’re no bigger than most at this level, relegation was inevitable. If you’re thinking fans of other teams are rubbing their hands together in excitement to play you you’re hugely mistaken. I say try some of the ex Non League clubs fella. Perhaps a Forest Green fan somewhere is looking forward to it. But as for us you’re just another underachieving club just like the rest of us. Welcome 👍🏻
