I will just let him carry on, he has done alright. He is part of a team who is on a decent run, he is a good player and when the time comes I will make that decision. If you are asking me the question now I would keep him but that is not my decision I will have to ask the Oldham."

I am not stupid enough to think that the lad has come in and he is happy not to be playing at weekends. He is a good lad and an experienced player. I know he wants to be playing more but unfortunately he has not played as much as he could. Again we will come to that when it has to be sorted out."

"Our aim is to get away from the bottom four at the moment in time but, at the same time, if you keep winning all of a sudden you are looking above yourself a bit more."
