Welcome to RHF: In The Spotlight. I am Wolvensam, your ever lovable yet incredibly lazy host. The questions asked are interesting, crazy, whacky, serious, personal, intimate, and some are just downright rude!
The member gracing the hotseat today is resident Oldham Athletic fan JoeLatics.

Personal:
What is your name?
Joseph 'Joe' John James Gleeson
How old are you?
14
Which city/town/village do you currently live in?
Oldham (obviously!!!)
Tell us one thing we don't know about you?
Erm... My second team is Liverpool, I used to campaign for Fair Trade, I've just started Jujitsu after quitting Aikido after a year
Have you got an "Other Half"?
Not at the mo
What school do you go to?
Crompton House, which, may I add, is the top school in Oldham
What subjects do you study and what are your favorite ones?
English, Maths, Chemistry, PSHE, Biology, Physics, RS, PE, iMedia (sorta like IT, but more about the graphic side of it) French, Geography, History, and Psychology on Saturday mornings.
Favourite? PE's a good laugh, iMedia, and history to an extent.
What is your Goal in life?
Erm... jobwise, be a doctor?
What is your favourite:
Band?
Aaaaaaaargh! Green Day, ACDC, Foo Fighters, Nirvana, Arctic Monkeys, Scouting for Girls etc etc
Album?
Either American Idiot or Black Ice.
Film?
Ace Ventura 1. Old, but brilliant!
TV Programme?
Match of the Day of course!
Dinner Guest?
Is this who I'd like for a dinner guest? In that case, definitely comedian Bill Bailey... absolutely hilarious!
Meal?
Good old fish and chips
Football:
Who is your favourite Oldham player ever?
Ernie Cooksey, RIP. Fought for every single ball, even if it was a lost cause, and always wore a large grin whilst playing.
Who is your favourite current Oldham player?
I would say Lee Hughes to wind a certain (Tyler) Northampton (Tyler) fan (Tyler) up (Tyler) but I'll go for Chris Taylor. ;D
What was your first football match? Score? Where was it? ect
Crikey... I was about 6 at the time, when my godfather/cousin took be to see us v Mansfield at Boundary Park... we won 6-0 ;D That or a game against Cambridge that we drew 2-2, with a last minute goal... cant remember which was first!
Your favourite Oldham memory?
So many! Beating Man City in the FA Cup, getting into the Play Offs the other year, but I'd have to say surviving on the last day of the season in our crisis season! Beat Bradford 2-1 to stay up!
Your worst Oldham memory?
Definitely when Chris M**re deserted us, leaving us with almost no players, no manager, and very nearly no club. Fortunately, 'The Three Amigos' bought us with about 5 minutes to spare! (They were thinking of going for Hull... I bet they regret buying us now!!!)
Opposition player you love to despise?
Crikey, don't get many of those! I'd have to go for the world's best striker, Jermaine Beckford (Bet that all you Cobblers feel the same right now!)
Best goal you've ever seen live?
By a county mile, Simon Charlton's 80+ yard lob. Can't remember who it was against, but we won 4-1, and that was the 3rd.
Worst blunder you've ever seen live?
Jeepers, one of our old keepers tried to clear it, kicked it very nicely into a defenders bottom, and it ended up in the back of our net
Do you play for a team yourself? Who are they? What league are you in?
Wish I did, but I don't get the opportunity due to my brother playing for his team! I'm going to do a refs course when I can drive, though.
RHF:
Why did you join RHF?
I remember browsing the 606 archives, and seeing an ad for this place here. It was my first forum!
Who is your favourite RHF member and why?
Fez, he always makes me laugh (with his captions in the caption contest!)
What is your favourite thread on RHF?
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuughsey!
In a fight to the death between you, Wolvensam, Bismarck and FezNTFC,
who would come where and why?
Me, I'd Jukido (mixture of Jujitsu and Aikido) you all to submission
Questions from the Members:
Have you always supported Oldham?
Yes. I got my first shirt at about 3 months old as a baptism present (still got it!) and went to my first match at about 6 years old.
Do you think they will ever get promoted to the Championship?
This season is the one! (Of course, I've been saying that for the past 11 years, but this one has a feeling about it!)
Do you have a girlfriend?
Not at the mo, no.
Do you play football?
Loads down at the park, I'm a defender by trade, but I'm also a pretty good keeper if I can say so myself, so I usually end up in nets.
Do you play any other sports?
If you count PE, I'm great on the wings in basketball, and not bad at rugby (but not great either!)
What do you what to be when you grow up?
A doctor, I think. Just sort of appeals to me at the minute, but I'm leaving lots of doors open just now.
Do you have any brothers and sisters?
Yep, I've got a brother called Sean, who's 12, and a sister called Kerry, who's 'nearly 8'. They're in the photo!
What are your hobbies?
I've been a Scout for most of my life, also just starting D of E award silver, I play the piano and the guitar, and I am overly obsessed with football
What position do you think Oldham will finish this season?
Top six for sure. If not, I'll join the currently pathetic 'Shez out' brigade
If you could pick any player in the world to come to Oldham...who would it be and why?
Micheal Owen. He's been getting a lot of stick lately, but he's easily one of the world's best. And he's never played for any clubs I hate!!!
