They should have given us half of the Peal Street Stand. They have done it for clubs in the past.

The police only allow it at Dale for well behaved clubs - they did allow it for Leeds, Sunderland, Newcastle, and Tottenham who all seemed to know how to behave at football.   They'll never allow it for Oldham

They called a game off at Spotland a couple of weeks ago to a waterlogged pitch, so not sure it holds up to well to rain.

 

Doesn't help their groundsman is currently suspended either...

 

Got a feeling they'll call it off at the first opportunity. A Tuesday night game saves them a lot of hassle with fans too.

They have spent a kings ransom rebuilding the drains and the pitch at Spotland in recent years.    If it stops raining heavily at around 1am as forecast I'd predict it will then drain and the game will be on.    Dale won't want this moved to a Tuesday night as they have sold a lot of tickets

Why are football clubs uniquely incapable of planning ahead for these fixtures and ensuring everyone who wants a ticket can get one? It’s staggering really, the ground won’t be anywhere near full and yet hundreds of Oldham fans will be denied entry or subject to police threats.

 

Its not like lower league football doesn’t need the money, apart from anything else!

 

Pathetic but standard these days sadly

But history says some people can't behave.  They have left 500 seats free in our stand as it is to accomodate the numpties
