LATICS players took time out from their busy training schedule to meet fans in Oldham town centre.
Fans queued up in Spindles Shopping Centre for the chance to meet the players and have footballs, T-shirts, team shirts and calendars autographed.
Preparations for the team’s League One season opener against Stockport County on Saturday are well under way as the boys in blue hope for promotion to the Championship.
New manager Dave Penney has revamped the squad and is urging Latics fans young and old to cheer their team on at Boundary Park.
