The difference between two pretty average teams tonight was their keeper, and not just the penalty save. His handling under pressure was top class and tbf he must've had a lot of practice this season
Overall, a fair result. I didn't think Latics were unduly defensive and it was a decent enough game for a pressurised derby. No qualms about Raff not scoring. He took it on and it's up to others to take that responsibility if they think they can do better
Best move of the match was their pitch invader going for ref, missing and sliding into their own player, a definite yellow

Looked like a professional foul to me. |  |

Be good to know about Davies, Dobre Knott, and a whole multitude of things, did we appeal hendo' card. But this is Rochdale , so we aren't getting told. The tone of the match was set by their managent throwing the ball away early on when we had a throw in, they were a dirty niggly team, with obnoxious fans. I hope they go down |
We did at least get told about the appeal... just before the team was announced. |  |

Tbf, nothing was going to be announced earlier as it would have possibly helped inform Oldham's selection and tactics. | |

It looked to be as though the referee gave the goal and the linesman overuled it.
The penalty was a farce, keeping the players waiting for no apparent reason was certain to hand the advantage to the keeper. Having said that having a fullback take the penalty says more about our so called attackers than Rafferty.. If Andrew, Done and Inman dont have the confidence to step up and take the resposibility, its clear why we struggle to score goals. I dont think this game will define the season but the problem of not having a genuine goalscoring frontman probably will. |
"No apparent reason", apart from probably having to compose himself and go through the correct protocol after some loon had attempted to attack him on the pitch.
And the referee blew straight away for the disallowed goal; the linesman wasn't involved. | |

It looked like he'd signaled towards the centre spot from our end - couldn't hear the whistle above the noise from the Sandy. 😉 |  |

Northampton 2-2
Oldham 0-0
Wimbledon 1-1
Walsall 1-1
Oxford 0-0
Fleetwood 0-2
Blackpool 1-2
If we do go home it's obvious that it's down to our inability to beat fellow strugglers at home. |  | | |

The penalty was a hopeless attempt by Rafferty. The disallowed goal looked correct from the Main Stand, with the ref immediately blowing for a foul by Calvin.
Hendo would probably have made the difference tonight , as we played some good stuff with little composure in front of goal.
Calvin, Inman and Rathbone our stand out players.
Overall, we should have won easily, against as poor a team as we have faced all season.
Hope the Latics fan gets a long ban for trying to attack the ref. Lots of reports of trouble from the Biffo's once again. Why can't they behave ? |
From the highlights it appears that the disallowed goal doesn't look so clear-cut, but that Thompson was looking to get the penalty.

Absolutely nobody disputed the penalty? Thompson knocked the ball past Gerrard and got kicked - cast iron. Calvin challenging for the ball with the keeper looks 50/50 to me - as we see week in week out some refs give it - some don't. Anyway here's an upbeat Hilly.

And Wellens thought we were good.

Yes, I wouldn’t expect otherwise. Going off Riddler’s post it seemed he hadn’t seen the news, though.
The ongoing lack of info regarding other players remains frustrating. | |

Agreed - whether it be confidence or courage, its pretty pathetic that penalty taking is left to the fullback.
Lack of leadership anyone? | | | |

There are plenty of examples of a team's full-back being the penalty taker: Pearce, Irwin, Neal, Aleander and others. |  |

He missed - it happens but we really needed it to go in. Like I said last night,the way Placide was jumping around so much it was obvious he was diving. It takes bottle to put a pen down the middle but that's where it should have gone. The one thing I would say is Raff isn't a regular goalscorer or penalty taker in games so it did seem a strange choice. Personally ahead of him should have been Calvin, Camps or Inman who at least have scored goals and are players who are regularly in scoring positions during games. The way Raff approached the ball it looked like his body shape was to place it to the keepers left (Raff's right) - he didn't disguise his intentions in any way and that probably comes with not being in that position regularly. I really hope it isn't critical but these last few weeks we don't seem to be getting any luck you'd expect if you are going to avoid relegation, injury time goals conceded, penalty missed and top scorer sent off missing 4 games - just hope we get at least 1 win from these next 2 home games preferably Saturday. | |

It was a poor penalty and was obvious where he was going for it but he's a player that scores a goal every blue moon and there must be others that could have stepped up to take it. I thought he'd have just hit it as hard as he could.
Calvin, Camps and Inman, despite being in regular goal scoring positions have got 8 league goals between them, which is an extremely poor record. Maybe it's a confidence thing with them? | | | |

I'm sure the ref signalled for a goal? Didn't look a foul - just a keeper back pedalling for a ball he couldn't reach and colliding with Calvin. We needed that break tonight. |
From my view the ref signaled the goal and then changed his mind | | | |

He 100% didn't, as soon as Calvin headed it the whistle was in his mouth and he was shaking his head, pointing for a free kick. | |

Sorry you said "regular goalscorer" then you mention Calvin Andrew. Missed two sitters again and I'm sorry but me and my mates watched him closely and his high praise and marks out of 10 from the idiots is astounding, when he very rarely places a ball to a blue shirt , he doesnt win as many headers as people make out and he certainly shy's away from goal scoring opportunities in the box. It obviously isnt working this blindly pumping the ball up to him and seeing what happens , especially when Skippy is hopping around up front as well.
Just a quick stat for a centre forward 200 appearances 41 goals over 14 years , not very prolific eh?
We needed to win tonight no question and Hill blew it! the Biffos were shocking and there for the beating. | | | |

Did you think it was pathetic when tom kennedy, another fullback, used to take all our penalties?
Some people make me laugh, do you honestly think it was just decided on the night who took the penalty, we will have a designated penalty taker, laid out before the game..
Without henderson we’re going down, he’s literally the only player who can score goals in this side.. |  |

He said 'goal scoring positions' Hill decides we must lump it to Calvin, he wins his headers but no dale player anticipates and consequently only decides to move for the ball after the challenge. I do wonder if we practice at all | |
