Excellent post Sly, sums up my feelings perfectly. The whole thing has been a vile clownshow.

All three here.

My stance in a nutshell. Until a new regime takes over and those responsible for this whole mess have gone, then I'll reassess. I'm guessing I'll have found something else to do on a Sat afternoon by then though.

I won't be renewing my ST now wether we sign him or not. The fact it has even been considered is enough for me.

Looked at that myself, perfect weekend to launch it.

Has not yet signed with anyone.

Millwall. 12 month deal

It's not "fortune" it's budgeting and forward planning. The Season before my first ever ST I cut back on away games and missed the odd home match too, putting the money saved to one side. This, coupled with other savings (eg one pint a week less = £100 per year approx) enabled me to fund that all important first ST. From then on I set up a monthly standing order for a few quid to enable me to keep buying STs year on year without feeling the pinch. It;s like paying my Gas or Water bill now - just part of my monthly outgoings. For the record, I'm not interested in any "compensation" either. I just want the people of Oldham to show up and prove that the town desrves a League club and to demonstrate to any potential investors that we are worth it.

I hope everyone got a fixture list and an application form for a half season ticket today. If you don't ask you don't get.

He's here on a 3 month loan, will be in todays' squad.

Morais is a must follow - @filipemorais7 He spent an afternoon baking fairy cakes last week and posted a photo of them. He had iced a number seven on the top. Morais' cake

Have just about recovered from this last weekend. It is by far the most freindly, laid back "large scale" Metal festival in the UK, far better than Download IMO. As it is only in its 3rd year there are still improvements to be made, but it is not far off being perfect. Having Bill Bailey as the "buffer" between Motorhead and Slipknot was genius, "Still not back to normal after Knebworth gig. - have image of crowd singing along with Scarboro Fair Rammstein style." Local police also praised festival goers as they declared "this festival was the safest in the country so far this year in relation to crime".

Plenty of beautiful movie gifs on this site... If we don't, remember me

The council actually tried introducing a permit parking scheme last year, during the close season if memory serves. Only one permit per household, to be displayed all the time and not just on match days, at a cost of £200+ a year. We were asked to vote on this, and I assume the majority rejected the proposal (I did) as I have heard nothing since.

I can thoroughly recommend it! Been in Kenwood Rd coming up to four years now, and it is pretty much exactly as Diego was "selling" it.

...but it appears building work has resumed at the back of the Chaddy after laying dormant for several months. There were a half dozen or so bods walking around the site last Friday morning, fluo vests, hard hats, clip boards etc... Have just got home from work and there is a few guys there now, as well as a "digger" of some sort (I'm not a builder, obv.) and what looks like fresh supples of bricks etc.. Could mean nothing of course, but thought I would share with the class.

He's out of their club...

The Sunderland fishal suggests we have "decided not to renew..."

It's a tenner.

A great move by the club.

...and then someone points out the elephant in the room. I work with several City ST holders, who are only aware of this through me. What is the point of promoting a City legends day just to Latics fans, many of whom it will just annoy.

The single biggest problem in modern football, and one which cannot be sustained for much longer. Either clubs will go to the wall with increasing indifference from the wider football community, or attitudes and practices have to change, and change quickly. Football needs to wake up and smell the dubbin before it is too late.

Some of Uncle Joes finest would go down well.

Alternate ending...
