no we wouldnt because tta would have sold the land before they allowed building, the losers would have been the builders.
the council turfs people out of their homes and allows private companies to build 'better' ones for different people. so they could quite easily have told the coffin dodgers that the football ground was there when they bought their houses, and the owners of the land are building some new houses aswell.
when they messed that up and they decided to help by proposing the failsworth ground, they met new resistance. the key point being the land is not theirs to give, the land has been protected since the 1940's. so what do the council do? they check the records back to the 1970's then smuggly announce they can give the land away. this annoys the resistance even more, so much more that they bother to check the real records and hey presto the council cant do this.
so we get more wasted months of
yes we can
no you cant
yes we can
no you cant

45% oldham full stop. the fans, the none fans, the dodgers, the weather, the resistance
