BTW, anyone listen to BBC Radio London, they had the Oldham reporter from Radio Manchester on last night, and he was waxing lyrical about Dale Stephens, thinks he's a special player who will thrive at Charlton and would cut it in the Championship
Does anyone else think he looks like a younger Steven Gerrard?
Or is it just me?
Well if he can play half as well as stevie G then we got one hell of a player. Unfortunately, looking like him doesn't really count. I've been told more than once that i resemble peter crouch (don't see it myself). Just wish i could play like him.
Yeah, i do a mean robot. :-). I did actually convince some teenagers who said i looked like him that i was in fact his older (but not bigger) brother. Ha-suckers
Sparrows Lane, one of the best training facilities in the country.....FACT
You been there recently?
No, I have access issues :-)
Good thing too : - ) but last time I went it was badly in need of a tidy up and some other work. Lots of land and the astro pitch but hope a bit of the Mysterons money goes in that direction.
Still compared to Oldham or Dagenham's training grounds I bet it is fantastic.

Funnily enough, Christian Dailly said as much when he came to NWKA in April. Said the facilities were in need of an overhaul & new fitness equipment was a must have. He felt that what was there at present didn't give players the best possible chance to get fit / strengthen after injury.
Got a reply from the Oldham FM researcher on Stephens, not really anything new but still good to know he was an important player for them-
Bit of an all-rounder really, quite good going forward with an eye for goal. We missed him when he was out of the team last season. I don't know for sure of any clauses but I imagine that we've included a sell-on% and possibly an additional payment after promotion.

Decent free kick
