History
The club was founded in 1895 with the name Pine Villa and adopted the name Oldham Athletic in 1899. It moved to Boundary Park in 1896 and entered the Football League in 1907. In the 1914-15 season, Oldham finished as runners-up in the English first division, the best campaign in its history. It also reached the FA Cup semi-finals in 1913. In the early 1990s, under Joe Royle's management, the team experienced a recent peak: it was Second Division champions in 1990-91, reached the League Cup final in 1990 (losing to Nottingham Forest) and reached the FA Cup semi-finals in 1990 and 1994, losing both matches to Manchester United. Oldham was one of the founding members of the Premier League in 1992 and was relegated at the end of the 1993-94 season. In 2022 it fell to the National League, leaving the Football League after more than a century, and returned to the EFL in 2025 after winning the division playoffs.
