Reserves win at Oldham

Last updated : 15 October 2002 By Tony Scholes

The only goal of the game came from Joel Pilkington in first half stoppage time and it was enough to give us all three points against a much more experienced Oldham side.

We had to battle against a strong wind in the second half but apart from hitting a penalty against the post Oldham failed to create too many chances as the Clarets defended superbly.

The teams were:

Oldham Athletic: David Miskelly, Michael Clegg, Marc Tierney, Michael Davenport, Will Haining, Danny Hall, Danny Boshell, Wayne Gill, Wayne Andrews, Scott Vernon, Adam Griffin. Subs not used: Ashley Winn, Tom Whittle, Chris Bass, Craig Fleming, Carlos Roca.

Burnley: James Salisbury, Danny Pitham, Paul Scott, Liam Eves, Earl Davis, Andrew Waine, Mark Rasmussen, Joel Pilkington, Damian Hindle, Matthew O’Neill, Richard Chaplow. Subs not used: Ryan Townsend, Robert Grimes, Rhys Carpenter, Sean Blakey.
