On Saturday The Real Latics travelled to Brisbane Road to play Leyton Orient and won 2-1, last night (Tuesday) The Real Latics returned to the Capital this time to play Millwall at The New Den.
Unfortunately Millwall won 2-0. For the full match report, click here
In ten days time The Real Latics are back in London as they take on Brentford at Griffin Park.
I know of one Foxy Lady who will be dancing round her living room tonight after this result:
MILLWALL 2-0 PETERBOROUGH
Not only does it mean that her beloved Leicester City are on the verge of promotion back to the Championship, but they could be taking the League One title with them.
About this time last year I went to the works do at a local hotel and low and behold my mates beloved Latics were staying in the same hotel as the party was being held in.
They were in 'town to play Millwall at The New Den on Saturday afternoon.
Cough cough Oldham won 2-0 (I think).
Anyway my works held the same Christmas party do this Friday gone and this time League One's Crewe Alexandra were staying in the same hotel - and guess who they were playing?
Yep Millwall. Millwall flying at the top of League One and Crewe down at the bottom.
Result 0-0
Just thought I would mention it. Also have to mention that a lot of the Crewe boys went off to Bluewater for a bit of shopping and got back between 9.30pm and 10.00pm on the eve of a match!!
Promise I wasn't spying really. Just ask the footlocker boys and girls.
And the Football League has only just kicked off!!!
As you know this blog is dedicated to the REAL LATICS - Oldham Athletic.
Yesterday at Boundary Park, Oldham played host to Millwall in their first League One game of the 2008/09 season in front of a crowd of 5,367.
Millwall took the lead inside 15 seconds, Oldham equalised through Andy Liddell on 3 minutes - Millwall went 3-1 up and then the comeback started.
Liddell got his 2nd from the penalty spot, (Millwall had Robinson sent off) Alessandra made it 3-3 and Oldham born and bred and Oldham fan Chris Taylor scored the winner with five minutes to go.
