In my line of work I do a lot of travelling as a salesman and I sell a product many sports teams buy anyway I was in the midlands yesterday and got talking to a new contact and we got onto football so naturally I spoke about Oldham Athletic and this is where things got interesting.
This gentleman who we will call Richard told me in no uncertain terms the club was sold pending the new stand being completed and fully functional but the deal will only go through if the club is put into administration as the new potential buyers see the club able to sustain and survive a points deduction this year before being well backed and funded in attempt to get out the division next season, they already have a well known management duo who have agreed in principle to follow the potential new owners to the club.
Richard then said the club were stalling on opening the stand and as they are aggressively trying to find alternative suitors but are running out of time, the stand COULD have been finished and opened for the start of the season this Richard was adamant in that.
Anyway he bought 6 months worth of my product and provided an hours worth of conversation albeit very interesting conversation.
Make of that what you will.
