Oldham head into Saturday’s trip to bottom side Crewe Alexandra with an unfamiliar favourites tag on their shoulders, and David Dunn is keen to win back the fans’ affections after back-to-back home defeats.

Wigan boss Gary Caldwell was pleased with three points against Shrewsbury as his team stretched their unbeaten run to eleven games in SkyBet League One.

David Dunn was left ruing another poor start as Barnsley ended a run of eight straight defeats with victory at Boundary Park.

Wigan take on struggling Shrewsbury this weekend – the first meeting between the two sides since 1994 – in another big week for the club.

Having beaten both Chesterfield and Mansfield in the space of a week, manager David Dunn says Oldham will not be complacent ahead of hosting luckless Barnsley this weekend.

David Dunn claimed his second win as Oldham boss thanks to two second-half goals in Chesterfield, despite what the manager called an out-of-character first-half display.

Wigan manager Gary Caldwell was full of praise for his Wigan team as they stretched their unbeaten run to 12 games in the league and kept their first clean sheet away from home in the process.

Oldham’s injury-hit squad returns to League One action at Chesterfield this weekend, with the form books suggesting Latics could snatch an away win despite having won just twice this season – the fewest in the division.

David Dunn says he is relieved Oldham avoided a cup upset at the hands of Mansfield, but remains disappointed as the Stags forced a Boundary Park FA Cup replay on Saturday.

Wigan manager Gary Caldwell says he will be having a ‘long, hard look’ before he picks his team to play in Tuesday night’s Johnstone’s Paint Northern Area quarter-final against Blackpool.

David Dunn is looking forward to facing familiar opposition in more ways than one this weekend, as his Oldham side travel to Mansfield Town in the FA Cup first round.
