He told the official Latics website, "I spoke to John Sheridan as well as a couple of other clubs. I want to play regular football, I want to enjoy myself and I want to score as many goals as I can. Oldham are in a very good position and I hope I can improve them. I only live 45 minutes away, and I've been travelling to Hull for the last two and a half years. I'm towards the end of my career and I want to enjoy my football without having to travel so far. Oldham are sitting fifth in the league and I think we have a great chance of getting up to the Championship. We have some good players here. I already know people like Mark Crossley and Sean Gregan, and that was a big factor in me coming here as well."
"You know what you're going to get from me, and that's 110% every time I pull on the shirt. I will guarantee you goals if the service comes around, and I'm a team player who will try to help the younger lads in the squad. I want to enjoy my football and play with a smile on my face. I wasn't going to play on Saturday because Darren Byfield was still here, but now he's gone back to Doncaster. I was supposed to be either in the stands watching the game or on the bench, but now I'm looking forward to tomorrow night. Hopefully we can get off to a good start."
