Hands on Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 At the risk of being banned from this forum it is that time again. https://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news/2020/february/20022020-season-ticket-2020-21/ I did all my thinking last year and little has changed. To buy, or not to buy, that is the question. Buy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Pyro No Party Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Is there a bushy wig and red nose included in the price? Disenfranchised is the Latics word of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Witty Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 125 supporters who have renewed or bought will be picked at random to be given a complimentary season ticket for the following season I'm trying to do the odds on this one. How many do you think will renew in that 5 weeks? 1000 giving one in eight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, to put it another way, "Fuck me, Mo. We could be in deep doodoo here. We've got to do something to get folks back. Oh, shut up, Barry."

wiseowl Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Makes me sick to the pit of my stomach when I read about "our 125th anniversary celebrations" type stuff. The current regime do not appear to have a clue about what Latics means to people, our heritage, pride etc. and they treat fans with disdain. I find it all exceedingly disingenuous. Not a penny from me until they're gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

League one forever Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Does anyone think we’re coming up to a watershed with season tickets sales? Either A, they hardly sell and there is a fire sale, with a vastly reduced budget and/or admin. Or B, We sell enough (1000/1500) to survive disaster and AL makes up the shortfall. Personally i think numbers will be down, but I still think there is enough hardy souls who will stump up. Which means more of this dross next year. Terrific.

I think it will be B, we will sell enough for administration to not be needed, but numbers will be down. There are quite a few fans who believe that AL is not responsible for some of the biggest issues at the club. I'm probably going to renew, but I don't sit in the North stand and I don't think I'd renew if I did. If the club continues to be mismanaged to the same extent for the forthcoming seasons I think there will be fewer and fewer fans getting season tickets.

oafc1955 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 We are in a continuous slow demise...ST’s will certainly reduce and the budget will be cut accordingly. His stand off with the OEC and the North Stand has probably pissed off another few hundred. If AL continues this strategy we will end up in the National League at best or Administration. He has made no attempt whatsoever to appease the fan base and to be selling ST’s at this stage without a statement of intent or rallying call to fans IMO is suicidal. What possible incentive is there for anyone to buy one!!! I’ve said on several occasions, the longer these ’s are running the club the worse the outcome will become. Our owner is poisonous as well as clueless and continues to stumble from one disastrous decision to another and must be losing money hand over fist! Personally, I would rather everything came to a head before the end of the season and he either puts the club up for sale or hopefully just walks away. IMO, the sooner they are gone the better!!! ***********ABDALLAH OUT*********** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

100milesaway Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I'm just waiting until the deadline for early bird season tickets has passed. Then BOOM they tell us that they cannot come to an agreement with the ground owners, so we will play at Mossley next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't inclined to go had "Sports Park end of Broadway" happened so Mossley's a no-go for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al_bro Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I wouldn't go to any ground share. That would be me done, and I doubt it would happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigDog Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Interesting to see that the original ‘early bird ‘article was reposted yesterday on the official site - I wonder if the uptake has been poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifford Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 May be a poor uptake as buying an ST in cash / on the plan now would be a massive risk given admin would make the ST void. Well worth waiting and seeing and paying on the day / waiting for the last min extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
