On the Road Again!

This time in the League. Same result but a different score. From the Sky app it was clear that until Morecombe were gifted a goal in the 40th minute that they were pretty evenly matched. Same shots and on target, slightly different possession percentages. Latics equalised in the second half only to go even further behind trailing 3-1 before staging a mini comeback with a late goal. Unlike last week when they managed a 3-3 draw this time they went down 3-2. With Southend and Grimsby both getting draws Latics sank to the bottom of the League.  How many teams score five goals in two games and end up with one paltry point?

Glad I didn't go. Glad the football is played behind closed doors. After last week losing at home to Leyton Orient this was even worse.  In US parlance Latics are 0-2 for the season. Luckily Southend United and Grimsby Town are even worse and are below them in the table. Although they might have played better teams and lost... So far two games played. No goals scored and 4 conceded. Relegation form from the start.

After the pre-season we had at Oldham, hopes were high that after that and the beating last week of Carlisle that it would transfer to the league. Sadly it didn't and another 89th minute goal saw Leyton Orient win today. https://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news/2020/september/12092020-leyton-orient-match-report/
