Sam Surridge: Bournemouth forward on facing ex-club Oldham in the FA Cup

It is just over two years since League Two Oldham Athletic pulled off an FA Cup upset to remember as they knocked Fulham out at the third-round stage.

On Saturday they play Bournemouth as they look to pull off another surprise.

Sam Surridge, who scored Oldham's first goal in their 2-1 win over Fulham, will face his former side having gone on to break into the Cherries' first team.

"Bournemouth wanted me to go and score goals, play well and do well for them," the former Oldham loanee said.

Speaking to BBC Radio Manchester, he continued: "At the time there were a few problems at [Oldham] but when I was there I loved it and I loved the people and fans.
