Not only is the quality of the video in the link so poor that it probably isn't him but Chris Kamara is not singing Lionel Richie, a good excuse for a boo, so altogether now:
Booooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

2011/12 begins
It ain't quite Futurama, infact it's probably the worst comeback since Andy Goarm, but seeing as actual games are being played it is worth writing again, so welcome back!!

Transfer Rumour time
It's that time of year again where peoples minds go up in the air about who is going to be in the starting line up at Boundary Park in August, here's just a few things that have been spouted near our secret van (below)
Latics to sign Clayton Donaldson from Crewe in exchange for Ryan Brooke and Kirk Millar - Howard Baker (former Programme seller)
I have reason to believe that Warren Feeney will be moving on in the summer, Accrington Stanley have made a bit believed to be around £50,000 for the man but might only prepared to make the bid if they get promoted - Paul McDonald (former Lookers season ticket holder)
Josh Ollenernshaw to move to Queens Park, to quote he was "glad to be moving onto a bigger club than crappy Oldham", but then he found out it was Queen's Park the only amateur team in the Scottish Third Division not Queen's Park Rangers - Terry Kipper (Squash partner of Matty Wolfenden)
Latics to sign Bas Savage as a replacement for Oumare Tounkara - Peter Winnel (Lee Duxbury's dog walker)

Boundary Boos
re: The Evolution
I'm quite disgusted at the idea of an evolution at the club, I am not one for change myself, I think it's disgusting that the club should dare deceive the fans in such a way and change its identity. Would you change a persons face? It's another thing which really winds me up because I never wanted to evolve in the bloody first place. I liked being a monkey, them trees supported me much better than the bloody Latics board supports my moaning rights!!! I would rather throw my feces rather than have to endure the bloody awful facilities that the Main Stand have to offer in a way of toilets and give me a banana over a bloody hot pie any day of the bloody week. All in all evolution is bad and everything should stay the way it is booooooooooooo!!!!
Your most miserable fan
Say Boo to the Badge

The new badge
We went out and spoke to our panel of talking heads about the new badge:
Tony Rankin (Rochdale Road End Steward) - I'm unsure in one sense it's good to move with the times but on the other hand it's important to keep tradition.
Sean Hatton (Chaddy End Pie eater) - I think the club should keep with tradition as much as it can but at the same time the game is changing and so should the club.
Peter Hodge (Main Stand season ticket holder) - I think it's important for the club to keep in touch with tradition, but the club needs to move with the times.
Dean Prince (exile in Southport) - I don't like it when traditions are lost, but I don't like it when people don't move with the times.
Luke Webster (Goes to all the away games) - The club needs to move with the times, but at the same time keep with tradition.

Emotion Season continues with this blog
There are many things in life that people get their kicks from. To some people like the arts, to others it's gaming or opera; for me it's watching football. Yes you can't beat watching a game but more importantly watching Latics a team that speaks for me.
Yes I probably do waste loads of money following them, yes I probably missed out on lots of stuff and potential over time at work. Yes I partly blame my failure at university opting to go to Luton on a Tuesday night rather than finish my assignment.
But would I change it? Of course not!! I am one of the fans who gets worked up and annoyed when am not at the game having to pely on peoples texts, social networking sites and Soccer Saturday for updates.
In a modern era of SKY TV and Premier League, watching Latics it deemed unfashionable by others. But life is all about trends and football is no different.
The best comment I hear is "you are only there for the 90 minutes if we lose it's awful". WRONG!! To me it is more than just watching the game. Winning is a bonus so is playing well but the day starts for me when we get on the train or jump on a bus. It ends when i arrive home (usually plastered).
The pre match beers, banter with the away fans, debating with your own supporters; these are what make watching Latics so enjoyable.
I wont lie I prefer away games and I am even more selfish I prefer the very long distance ones. You can start to identify the die heads. The London lot, the Rifle Range fans, those on club coaches.
End of day I would not have it anyway other way the fact thet 11 men on a pitch can bring people together. The fact a lot of my football buddies are now classed among my best friends does not matter what age or what sex they are. It shows what watching Latics is all about.
Yes all fans get screwed and overcharged by clubs including our own at times. But I would much rather be seen with my Latics shirt on at an home or away match than some armchair support wearing the shirt because their the team on top or a high profile player plays for them sat in a pub. In my eyes these people are missing out on all the fun.
But even when there is 2000 or 3000 fans watching Latics its good because you get to see other familiar faces. Lets be fair why else would you make a silly trip to Yeovil? or Thurrock on a Sunday morning?
That is what watching Latics is all about to me but this way of life is under threat by the Sky TV culture.
