The 2014-15 campaign delivered a season of mid-table consolidation and managerial change for Oldham Athletic as The Latics finished 15th in League One. The year saw the turbulent departure of manager Lee Johnson in February, with Dean Holden eventually taking the helm. Spearheading the attack with a fantastic start to the season was the prolific Jonathan Forte, whose 15 goals proved crucial in securing their standing, even as his form was hampered by second-half injuries. The campaign, which also saw a promising run to the Quarter-finals of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy, served as a chapter of transition, highlighting the enduring value of veterans like Forte and the continued progression of young talents such as Carl Winchester.
