It gets worse. In order to deflect from their corruption, the EFL have now copyright-banned close-up slow-mos of the red card incidents - and have taken them off their YouTube highlights edit. They don't want you to see this: #oafc
Micky Mellon’s interview yesterday struck a chord with me.
Some ramblings for the @the_Oldham_Owl. #oafc
@RossHaynes92 makes his authorial debut in The Oldham Owl with a song of praise for Micky Mellon following his pre-match interview yesterday.
The raw emotion and high-endeavour football in the second half on Saturday could spark a revival in both Mellon and his team.
Defiant resilience: Micky Mellon gets it...again

This is well worth listening to. This is probably one of the best interviews I’ve seen any manager at any level give ever.
Brilliantly said from a superb manager. #oafc
🗣️ The manager speaks ahead of the midweek visit to Northampton. #oafc

Rock should have been nowhere near yesterday's match. The EFL and Pro Ref need to rethink their selection criteria. #oafc
EFL and Pro Ref must investigate Rock's performance

On the pitch: Two red cards, six yellows.
On the touchline: Davies sent off for understandably & calmly asking for a word. Mellon yellow card for having a moan.
Not a bad tackle or violent conduct to be seen.
ProRef delivering corruption at its most obvious. #oafc
As Starmer leaves office, he officially becomes the first PM since John Major without John Sheridan managing a Latics game. #oafc

🚨 NEW: Reform UK have asked activists to travel to Clacton to help Nigel Farage instead of campaigning in the Manchester Mayor election
"We now need all of our fantastic activists, branch officers and councillors to come and help us in Clacton"

More like it.
NEW
Chancellor announces new restriction on use of judicial review for “critical infrastructure” clean energy projects - ie wind and nuclear - and time limitation for other projects, roads, rail and reservoirs - this is in addition to the streamlining of the process in the planning law.
Will curb environmental challenges to big infrastructure plans.
There really is an alternate world where Gordon Brown didn’t bottle calling an 2007 election, David Miliband won in 2012 from peak-Olympic vibes, there was no referendum and we spent the last decade moaning about the weather and pot holes instead of a full psychologic breakdown.

“In every Industrial Revolution there are great fears... do you shape the technology to work for all… or do you try and stop it?”
Tech Secretary Liz Kendall, speaking to @mattchorley inside an AI-powered driverless car, says the UK should not “turn its back” on AI.

Has an arsenal season ticket , takes his son to the football , goes to the pub without PR , plays 5 a side , worked his entire life
More in common with the working man than the grifters @reformparty_uk
We have just limited “free-scoring” Notts County to one chance. Controlled the whole second half and scored three very good goals.
That, undoubtedly, is what good looks like.
