The Latics and Fleetwood may have had a fair few battles down the years in non-league football, but as Football League clubs the two sides have only met on eight occasions.
The first of those eight came at the DW Stadium in September 2015, a crowd of 8,300 witnessed a Latics 2:1 victory with goals from Jordan Flores and Michael Jacobs, in the Fleetwood team that day was Jamie Proctor who of course featured for the Latics in our battle against adversity last season
Sat on the bench for us was 19 year old defender Jack Hendry who had just been brought in from Partick Thistle, earlier this season Hendry was sold to Club Brugge for €10m.
We are undefeated in the league against The Cod Army, five wins and two draws in League 1, the only defeat coming in the EFL Cup last season away at Highbury Stadium, the Latics giving up a two goal lead in that particular game to lose 3:2.
Talking of giving up two goal leads:
Stand Out Game - Fleetwood Town 2:3 Latics
Earlier this season, on the 2nd of November we made the short trip north to sample some Fish & Chips from the famous ‘Highbury Chippy’ and, we also thought, stroll to three points, it didn’t quite work out that way, the chippy tea was good, but the game was a dramatic affair that tested the Latics’ mettle to the full.
Latics found themselves two goals down early in the second half, but fought back with the spirit of true champions to win the game with three goals in a ten minute spell, Lang, Keane and Tilt sealing the victory that took us to the top of the League 1 table.
