19 man squad for Oldham is as follows:

Tom Olbison, Mitch Clark, Johnny Walker, Kurt Haggerty, Omari Caro, Kris Welham, Danny Addy, Oscar Thomas, Lewis Charnock, Jay Pitts, Ethan Ryan, Adam Sidlow, Lucas Walshaw, Joe Lumb, Epalahame Lauaki, Adam O’Brien, James Clare, Steve Crossley, Alex Mellor.

Who knew Johnny Walker was back?? Dews still have Etu, he played yesterday.

Id leave out walker and rest one of Pitts/Addy/Haggerty

Anyone who reads League Express. They mentioned it two or three weeks ago.

Assume we're easing clough back in after injury and he hasn't aggravated it and moss not fully match fit yet. Suspect we might see Thomas paired with charnock for at least part of match.

Would like to see Walker in for Clark. Clark gives everything he has every single game. Don't want him burnt out. Particularly with the huge game against Batley coming up.

Rest for Pitts and Clark

Surprised that there is no Moss, thought this would have been a good game to ease him in.

Id agree with the above, could do with resting Clark and Pitts both haven't had a break in ages.

Although Moss has just arrived and with an important game at the weekend maybe resting him now is a good idea so he's fresh for that game.

Think it was mentioned in one of interviews that Moss hadn't been playing recently down under. So I'd guess his match fitness isn't 100% and 3 games in 8 days is a big ask even for players at peak fitness.

Thought Campbell might have got a game

May not play this season with a groin problem

Moss got an injury already? Where did you read this?

Probably from Mick Gledhill. Thats usually the level of garbage he comes out with

Hoping he is ok for sunday.

That is quite a dig at someone without any evidence to back it up. I didn't realise I had clicked onto the T and A site by mistake.

I would like to no where the info has come from as I can't find ant evidence to say he has a groin injury.

There is no injury. Maurice is being a dick. Don't be a dick, Maurice.

Here we have evidence A of a true keyboard warrior.

Stop spreading lies Mr Leaming .

Sorry

Can we stop the personal insults pls. No need for it.

No offence taken from me, thought the attack on Mick was OTT though - Birch the attacker on't town hall steps imo

From the predictions thread everyone expects us to win this.

Are people really that confident? I’m not. Confidence is low. Heads drop at the merest setback. We lack direction. We’re ripe for the taking.

Someone please persuade me I’m wrong and it’ll be Bulls by 50.

I'd like to think we could kick on from a scrappy win and put a bit of a run together... Do it tough tomorrow night and go in to sunday with a bit of confidence.
Whether that happens or not, mind you!

This next block of games I'll just settle for a winning result. By the time we face Batley we will have some tired bodies, it's probably going to need one of our performances of the season to get the result.

It's like dropping in to some kind of parallel universe. I remember going to Wembley, Grand Finals, World Club Championships and now we are talking about Batley being a tough game. It's like a warped real life version of Back to the Future II

Dewsbury ran in over 40 against them at the weekend, they're part time and they've had 3 days to recover. If we can't win this game then we might as well close the odsal gates for good. We don't need to smash them by 50 just get the job done.
