The 2014–15 season is Oldham Athletic's 18th consecutive season in the third division of the English football league system and Lee Johnson's second full season as manager of the club.
A strong ten match unbeaten run at the end of the 2013–14 season gave Oldham a platform on which to build for the new season as building work literally continued on the new North Stand.
Six of the first team squad who finished the 2013–14 season left the club after their contracts' expired: Jonathan Grounds, James Wesolowski, Terry Dunfield, Anton Rodgers, Charlie MacDonald and Kirk Millar. The club captain Korey Smith was sold to Bristol City. In Smith's place, Johnson signed midfielders Liam Kelly from Bristol City and Mike Jones from Crawley Town.Joseph Mills, who had spent three months on loan during the 2013–14 season, was signed on a two-year contract. In addition, Johnson brought in defenders Brian Wilson and George Elokobi, midfielder Timothée Dieng and forwards Willy Gros, Amari Morgan-Smith and Jonathan Forte before the first game of the new season.
