Penney starts with County clash

New Latics boss Dave Penney will hope to make a winning start before his side make successive trips to the capital to face Leyton Orient and Millwall respectively on August 15 and 18. A busy opening month is completed with a home clash with Swindon and another trip to London to face newly-promoted Brentford. Oldham face fallen giants Leeds at home on December 1 and make the return trip to Elland Road on February 23. The Latics face Tranmere at home on Boxing Day and face Stockport away on January 16 before ending their campaign with a home clash against Charlton on May 8.
