Moore takes on Oldham job

At around 4pm a press conference at Boundary Park unveiled Ronnie Moore as boss, who brings with him John Breckin as his assistant.

Moore has signed a contract until the end of the season at which time he will be reviewed, so I wonder why he wouldnt give Millers05 8 weeks to sort his Millmoor contract out?

He told Oldham's official website "If you look at Oldham in the past, it wasn't too long ago since they've been to the old Wembley and you look at the results they've had just recently, to go and play Man City and perform the way they did and lose eight on the belt, I just think it's a tremendous challenge.

"No-one can guarantee (that Latics will stay up), no-one can say what's going to happen. What we can say is that there will be a lot of hard work going into it, there'll be a lot of organisation and there'll be a lot of spirit.

"There'll be a lot of happiness for the players because that's the way we are. We're not going to come down with a big heavy cane and be disciplined and be too hard on players- we want them to go out and perform. It's how you handle players sometimes that (means you) you can get the best out of them.

"We're just hoping that, with myself and John coming in- we've been in a similar position before at Rotherham United- what we can do is give it as good a try as we can. There's some wonderful, wonderful games coming up, especially the home games."

We wish Ronnie & John all the best, apart from when they play us.
