Les Pogliacomi (born 3 May 1976 in Sydney, New South Wales), is currently the number one goalkeeper at Oldham Athletic in England. He was dropped for Chris Day by Ronnie Moore in the 2005-2006 season, and went to Blackpool FC. However, John Sheridan brought him back to Oldham in the 2006/2007 season. Pogliacomi was a Australian Schoolboy International in 1994 and represented the Australia Under 20 team in 1995. Pogliacomi started playing top flight football in Australia for various NSL teams before being rated one of the better goalkeepers playing in Australia before moving to England. He is well known for being the goalkeeper for Wollongong Wolves in 2000 when they won the NSL grand final against Perth Glory 3-3 (7-6 on penalties) where his final save won the game.
