Latics match off at weekend
Reporter: Athletic by Matthew Chambers

Athletic's home game with Leyton Orient on Saturday has been called off.
The decision was made early in conjunction with the Football League in order to prevent the London club from making an unnecessary trip north.
The Boundary Park playing surface is covered in snow, with two-inch thick ice underneath.
In addition, the areas surrounding the ground are unsafe.
With no game this weekend, attention switches to the derby clash away at Stockport County on Saturday, January 16.
Athletic's next home game is the rearranged fixture against Tranmere Rovers on Wednesday, January 20 (7.45pm kick off).
