Oldham Athletic are not used to life in the basement division.
They’re traditionally very much a third-tier team, but find themselves down on their luck and facing a battle to stay in touch with the play off spots.
Last night’s victory, courtesy of Jonathan Benteke and a last-minute Callum Lang goal, saw them climb to 12th in the table. It was their first league win in six matches, a run that has seen fan’s belief in the system and manager wane significantly.
Their opponents are second from bottom and for large parts of the match neither side looked like breaking the deadlock. Eventually it was the less famous Benteke brother who did it, but it hasn’t placated fans who feel the club is not heading in the right direction.
Some believe it just papers over the cracks, others think it is just tactics and players to blame.
