    Junior's decision, based on ??????

    Well last 12 games Oldham W 4 D 1 L 7 GF 13 GA 24 = 13 PTS
    Whereas Barnsley achieved W 6 AND LOST 6 GF 12 GA 14 = 18 PTS
    Oldham gates around 4000 Barnsley 8000
    Oldham squad 24 4 midfield but juniors choices! Barnsley has 30, of which 12 midfield,

    first 5 games has Oldham v BARNSLEY

    Gills v Barns.............Oldham v PNE
    Barns v Coventry......PVale v Oldham
    Barns v Walsall ....... Yeovil v Old ( dad v son!)
    LOrient v Barns .......Oldham v MKD ( would have been happier with Junior in charge of this one! )
    DID junior shy out as Oldham have to take on PNE and MKD? lol

    I think best shot is Junior gets to 66 points................. he has failed if less than 58

    Lee would have made his decision based on a number of factors, based around what is most profitable for himself, both financial and reputational - and we shouldn't criticise him for that. There is no hiding place for football managers and the axe falls on them first, before the players who let them down.
    Good luck to him. An astute professional who despite the abuse he received from a vocal minority at City has nothing but good things to say about our club.
    Who knows, he may come back to manage us one day? Stranger things have happened.

    things did go a bit stale at Oldham so maybe it was a good time to move on CV said top 10 of the league 1 when headhunted by Barnsley..in no way would Oldham have lost 4-0 to PNE yesterday if he had waited another week! so maybe cost us a couple points advantage!!!!!
    Barnsley top 6 possible but not probable.....
