5) Goalkeeping hero 🧤
One of the heroes of Haiti’s qualification campaign was goalkeeper and captain Johny Placide, who currently plays for Bastia in Corsica - a team relegated to France's Ligue 3 this season.
The 38-year-old, who formerly played for Oldham Athletic, represented France’s U21 side before committing to Haiti and making 80+ appearances.
@OfficialOAFC@olivernorburn18 Sad to lose him but understand and agree family first. Glad he’s gone to Oldham, proper club with good supporters- they will appreciate him.
6 points guaranteed for them against Cheaterfield.

29/04/1990:
The Littlewoods Cup final between holders Nottingham Forest and Second Division side Oldham Athletic, managed by Joe Royle.
As always seemed to be the case back then, the sun was shining at the old Wembley, and Brian Moore’s voice sounds just right.

OTD 5️⃣0️⃣ years ago, a famous day at Oldham. 💚💛

Just got round to watching the Wild interview. What a prick. Who is he to come in and within a month and a bit tell us how we should support and how we’re wrong on what we think. Get to fuck you oldham cunt #TRFC#SWA
Disgrace. You’ve been brought in to make an impact you’ve achieved 1 point and 0 goals in 5 games. Go back to boundary park and take notes off a manager who understood him and the players represented this club and fans. Fans who got right behind you today as they have all season
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome. This Oldham cunt is playing the same shape and players as Crosby. We should have just stuck with him and accepted relegation!!
