Oldham Athletic Association Football Club, commonly known as Oldham, is a professional football club based in the town of Oldham, Greater Manchester, England. The club, established in 1895, is steeped in a rich history spanning over a century and is one of the oldest football clubs in England.
Oldham Athletic, nicknamed "The Latics," play their home games at Boundary Park, a stadium with a capacity of over 13,000. The club's traditional colours are blue and white, which are reflected in their home kit.
The club's most successful period came in the early 1990s under the management of Joe Royle. During this time, Oldham enjoyed a two-season stint in the Premier League, the top tier of English football, from 1991 to 1994. They also reached the semi-finals of the FA Cup in 1990 and 1994 and the final of the League Cup in 1990.
Oldham's journey has not always been smooth, with the club experiencing several relegations and financial difficulties. Despite these challenges, the club has remained resilient, demonstrating the spirit and tenacity that is characteristic of the town and its people.
The Latics have a strong local following, with a dedicated fan base that has stuck with the club through thick and thin. The club also has a reputation for developing young talent, with several players going on to have successful careers in higher divisions.
Oldham Athletic's mascot, a blue owl named Chaddy The Owl, is a popular figure at home games and community events. The club is deeply embedded in the local community, with a commitment to social responsibility and community engagement.
Over the years, Oldham has had several notable players, including England internationals Earl Barrett and Paul Warhurst, and they have been managed by several well-known figures in football, such as Iain Dowie, Paul Dickov, and Lee Johnson.
As of now, the club competes in the English Football League (EFL) Two, the fourth tier of English football. Despite the ups and downs, Oldham Athletic remains a beloved institution in Oldham and English football, continuing to inspire passion and loyalty among its fans. The club's rich history, community spirit, and commitment to the development of young talent make it a unique and important part of English football culture.
