However, I do accept your point because on the tweet was sent out, it said "after the Bolton game", so I can see why people would assume it was directly after...

I only looked at the booking yesterday. Bit of a mistake imo. Should have been directly after. People won’t be arsed going home and coming back. Anyhow. I’m sure there will be a blow by blow summary I can read tomorrow morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then got back to the hotel to find out the Stockport result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our original deal/lease agreement was to use all facilities other than the hospitality. It’s the hospitality etc that was up for negotiation and AL hasn’t gone ahead with their new contract. So in short...nothing new has been agreed with the FLG and we use the stand as we always have minus corporate boxes and hospitality in that stand.

RobOAFC Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 So the FLG can basically put on their own matchday hospitality for those who want to stay in the JR stand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it’s Not as straight forward as that. They would then have to pay OAFC per head to allow those people to watch the match from the boxes. Something I am sure will not be happening.

That’s what the OEC where charging OAFC for the 100 club members pie (Allegedly) (due to staffing costs and overheads etc etc) oh sorry and a 4% increase to cover wage increases.

They could just have the bar. Then maybe fill some of that empty space with stuff all fans can use, little Latics museum maybe? (I'm aware this particular idea is shit, so please don't point that out). Limiting your audience to 100 people limits your income, even if they're quite wealthy...

I'm sure the costs are higher to serve food in the 100 club than it would be to serve a pie in some plastic to the masses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were more than just 100 club members in there, and I can assure you that many of us are far from wealthy, just some of us with health issues appreciating a little more covenience and comfort.
