    He’s underestimating them cos they are MASSIVE , I’d say more Real Madrid v Athersley Rec under 23s

    Much as I’d love to go along with the narrative as there’s plenty of deluded massives fans, that’s not true.

    Oldham were a premier league side in the early mid nineties, in fact I’m sure Andy Ritchie scored against Man Utd in that period

    Oldham last played Man U in the prem in 1994 so as @troff says the narrative is flawed - in fact they were there for 4 seasons in the 1990's

    That said they have only played each other in the league in 5 seasons since WW2 - 4 of them in the top tier and once in the second tier

    In the same period we have played the fouls in the league in 27 seasons mostly in the second tier so the comparison is flawed - I bet we have played the fouls more than most other teams in the last 70 years in the league we both seem to spend most of our time - wheras Oldham had to get to the top tier to play Man U

    Mark Hughes scored with a volley int 120th min of a FA Cup semi final to gain Man Utd a replay against Oldham, Oldham seconds away from the final lost the replay 4-1. Memories

    TBF troff I looked it up saw 1994 and put 1990 on the thread. Short memory of 1 second. :oops:Point I was trying to make was if Oldham played Man Utd now it’d be David n Goliath. We have been wendies equals for lots of the last 40 years. Hardly a comparison he could make. Yes it’s a Derby game for us. ( although they don’t like to say as much from their point of view. And to agree we’re not Sheff Utd.) But they have got this strange attitude it’s our cup final. As the original post appears to infer. As to the deluded part it was referring to the bloke in the post. Not all are. My best mate at work is a Wendy and he’s not deluded. A simpleton maybe but not deluded. Says they were crap other night. OUCH. Dint realise he was at back of me :)

    The way Man United are playing at the moment, Oldham would have a great chance of beating them.
