ALEX SMITHIES
Made the saves that mattered, particularly from Pawel Abbott, to record a welcome clean sheet. 7
DEAN HEFFERNAN
Not one of the Aussie left-back’s stand-out displays, but still played his part in keeping Oldham out. 6
LEE PELTIER
The right-back worked hard and tackled hard to limit the damage caused by the dangerous Chris Taylor. 6
DANNY DRINKWATER
Some of his passes went astray, but there was no shortage of effort from the Manchester United loanee. 6
PETER CLARKE
Town’s skipper was his usual unruffled self, making a string of key challenges and clearing headers. 7
NEAL TROTMAN
A good nuts and bolts showing from the former Oldham centre-back who seemed to enjoy himself. 7
ANTHONY PILKINGTON
Applied himself diligently and the sight of him leaving the stadium on crutches after an ankle knock was a concern. 6
MICHAEL COLLINS
The midfield man darted around but struggled to make the kind of impact he managed at Wycombe. 6
JORDAN RHODES
Like Collins, applied himself but the 21-goal top scorer was unable to make his mark in this one. 6
THEO ROBINSON
Town’s two-goal star, now on 13 for the season, took both efforts well and is looking the better for a run of starts. 7
GARY ROBERTS
The winger was a constant worry for the Oldham defence, who were stretched by his running time after time. 7
MAN OF THE MATCH ...
Great to see that big smile on his face after his double sealed a valuable victory.
