Exactly. Same hype from the club that accompanied Eyre's appointment at Spotland. Can see a summer of unrest and anxiety from Latics fans. Can't see what his CV might have that makes him stand out from other candidates. | ![](/images/avatars/5895.gif) |

Don't know if they are related, but that's definitely Darren. | ![](/images/avatars/1107.gif) |

An Oldham fan I work with says he is not renewing his season ticket and boycotting all games. Seems a ridiculous over-reaction to someone who maybe just admires Martin McGuinness for his part in the peace process?

The peeved Oldham fans, anyone chanting anti Irish stuff to Kelly next season, posters on here. God, anyone apart from Kelly himself. I'd be annoyed if we appointed him due to lack of experience but the guy's entitled to hold a political view. He hasn't come out and said "I'm the new Oldham manager, up the RA" has he? Journo's and disgruntled fans have used his quite understandable nationalist feelings to beat him down. | ![](/images/avatars/7935.gif) |

Very true but the republican things is a load of bollocks anyway, I dont even think he has a view. His wife is English his kids are English, his best mates are English, his brother in law is a soldier in the British army ffs. I think you will find the Oldham fans view of him has softened significantly after some very good performances in interviews... the recent GMR hour was a good example. He seems intelligent, is clearly driven, extremely qualified (UEFA pro) and quite well connected (Brendan Rodgers and Neil Lennon for two examples). He obviously just lacks experience but I'd rather that than 20 years of shit experience from some journeyman lower league manager. Things are bright right now with the sensational new stand, season tickets going well and a bringht young manager. Of course that could all fall to pieces if he gets off to a bad start. But he deserves a chance and I am looking forward to see his style. At least we will both see decent crowds next year as attendances must be higher next season. Hoping our average drifts back above 5k. All the best for next season. [Post edited 13 May 2015 20:01]

You would still keep your mouth shut though , surely , he shows as much experience in social media as he does in football management...it will end in tears, this guy could be worse than Steve Eyre. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
