Latics boss happy with a point

The Latics created the better chances in a scrappy encounter but Tranmere held firm to claim a valuable share of the spoils.Oldham's fixture list has also been badly hit by the Arctic blast and this clash - originally scheduled for Boxing Day - was their first of 2010.Penney said: "I'm happy we've got a game under our belts and you could see neither side had played 11 v 11 for a long time."It's nice to get the rustiness out of our system because the players were tiring towards the end and neither side could make a big impact."We needed a win but, although I would not say we were the better side, we made better opportunities. The game was quite poor but it's a point and our fitness levels will improve from here."
