Chris O'Grady scored both goals against his former team to give 10-man Rochdale a derby victory at Oldham.
Dale went ahead when Reuben Hazell conceded a penalty for shoving Craig Dawson and O'Grady turned in the rebound after Gary Jones hit the post.
O'Grady increased Hazell's misery when he pounced on a poor back-pass to slot home from 10 yards.
Dean Furman volleyed home from 14 yards for Oldham after Dale's Scott Wiseman was sent off for fouling Cedric Evina.
Oldham manager Paul Dickov told BBC Radio Manchester: "We try to take the positives even when we don't play well but I thought we were excellent today.
"Rochdale have come here and done a job and all credit to them, but I thought we were the better team today from start to finish.
"If we would have drawn the game I would have felt unlucky, we had a right good go but it was just one of those day today."
Rochdale manager Keith Hill told BBC Radio Manchester: "I'm delighted, it's a local derby we've got all the three points and I thought it was a good game.
"I thought the sending off of Scott Wiseman was the wrong decision and I think everybody knows it wasn't a red card.
"The lads were really up for it, they realise it's important for the supporters and it moves us a little bit closer to where we want to be."
