If its allocated seating go to your allocated seat if you dont like it then find a spare one after kick off once everyone has found theirs. Seating is unreserved...get in early if you want a choice id say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much of a contest really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc1955 Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 That’s pretty obvious but the reality is if we don’t start supporting our club in greater numbers at home progress will be nigh impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It demonstrates a lot of young lads in Oldham like to get on the piss This is it for me, even at Crewe there were loads of younger people who don’t bother with a single home game, I was talking to a group of about 10 lads on the train, and between them they had been to about 10 home games in 3 seasons. I can sort of understand it to be honest, I prefer away days every day of the week, but i’d still be lost on a Saturday afternoon if we were at home and I wasn’t there.

HarryBosch Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 I hope the weather's shit, you all have your rights abused extensively by the police, they run out of pies, there's widespread infighting over allocated seats and we draw 0-0 before winning the replay in style after my return from Thailand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That game on Saturday was arguably the biggest game of our season, we’d just played Tranmere and Crewe off the park away from home and yet we could only muster up 3800 homers. The old excuses about the BP experience, the weather and that it was the week before Christmas will come out but that really is shocking. Like in the ‘pinch me’ era a lengthy cup run might ignite our season but our pathetic home attendances are baffling and in direct contrast to our away followings! Think the weather is a geniune reason for Saturday though, was absolutely atrocious. Would have had at least 3/400 more if it was a clear day.

I hope @ThaiLatic finds you a bar in Bangkok that’s showing the match, you turn up and there’s only the two of you among a sea of Fulham fans. They’re giving you loads, dismissing our Team, ridiculing us for being in the Premier League in the wrong era & acting all flash as is the wont of your indigenous Landander. The match begins and Frankie’s team attacks from the off and we score a bagful in a manner reminiscent of the pinch me era. All of a sudden, they’ve gone quiet, some have filtered out. They don’t look so flash anymore. You & @ThaiLatic - 4 or 5 singha’s in- begin to emerge from the shadows, understated but cool as fk. Two of the most beautiful girls in the bar make their way over. You regale them with all your best stories before you all disappear into the sunset in the back of two mopeds. One of the best day/nights in recent memory...... only for you to get back to your hotel to find you’ve pulled a ladyboy.

ghostofcecere Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 14 hours ago, Ryan said: 3,000 after just one day of general sale, personally I think we will easily shift another 1,500+ over the next couple of weeks. Maybe that’s overly optimistic but many thought we’d struggle to take 2,000 when the draw was initially announced. Our support is outstanding. Hope I’m proved massively wrong, but I reckon quite a few season ticket holders will have bought tickets for non season tickets holders, so open sale might not go as well as you think. Whatever happens though 3500 to London on a Sunday afternoon for a game we’ll most likely lose is unbelievable support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I just hope that all who turn up are on top form, behave themselves... and get solidly behind the team. We may well lose but I imagine that the team will be inspired by the huge numbers and give their all. Maybe just maybe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
