Stop selling at 3:45, cash up etc and be in your seat for 4:00pm, atleast it guarantees you a ticket for the game.

Best alternative?

It`s a nice idea, but i prefer to choose wether i donate my money to charities/good causes not having it forced upon me.

Maybe Robbie Simpson can be the player we thought he was!

Tbf injuries haven`t helped him one bit this season.

It's pay on the gate.

Kind of, have to buy a ticket from the Nottm Forest ticket office. IMO if you can pop down to BP and buy your ticket, saves on queing which means more beer time!!

The main problem is that the replacements aren`t good enough ... Only exception maybe being Mellor over Grounds.

Agree with Kelly Discopants still think there be about 2000 there.

Decent result tomorrow will put afew on, think afew will decide on the morning to.

I just spoke to the ticket office to check the same and they said it will remain all ticket and there will be no pay on the day. I sense that may change (common sense) but probably best to sort tickets now in advance.

I`d say yes, it always happens if the allocation isn`t sold out. The more we sell in advance the better for policing/stewarding etc hence the keeping it an all ticket fixture. I expect a story on the Saturday morning, maybe even Friday evening say it is now pay on the day.

Whats the allocation we recieved in total? Answer - 4,000.

I`d imagine we`ll sell around the 1500 mark, with it then becoming pay on the day as usually happens. Personally think that due to being an FA Cup game (always brings out decent numbers) and the relative closeness of the fixture we`ll have 2,000 there.

I must admit, I'm a bit worried now that our squad is painfully thin and nothing is being done to strengthen! Plenty of players out there and I thought we may be waiting for some of them.................... its just not happening!

How on earth would you know that though?

my little nephew can't go....parents can't afford it. cheapest seat for an adult (main paddock) is most expensive for kids...

 

I've sat in the same seat for 7-8+ years, i take an old timer who couldn't go without me yet my 7yo nephew would have to pay way above the £10 for his season ticket.

Worth looking at this new matchday club for your nephew?

Point gained if you ask me. It was always going to be a tough game, especially after beating them 5-2 not long ago, they weren`t going to let that happen again. Don`t forget aswell, they`ve played 2 games in 3 days now.

I think :lol: describes that "report" ... have a read for yourself.

Match Report

FA cup rules stipulate away team MUST be given 25% of the capacity or as near as can be with segregation rules so can see it being 6000+

15% not 25% isn`t it?

Got this from my kids school today seems rochdale and united are checking out young kids too see if they can find the next Messi from oldham ;/ shouldnt Oldham Athletic be doing more like this???????????

Oldham do run soccer schools like this, and there cheaper to! £10 for a full day. There down at Chapel Road this half-term, 10-3pm.

I had started to wonder recently whether PD is the man for the job, we started like a train last year but the wheels came off after the Rochdale defeat when we lost Mvoto, combined with other players missing too. I didn't expect us to beat the Blades and was pleased when we matched them for the first 45, I thought we should have beaten Carlisle but we couldn't get the ball in the net and Yeovil was woeful.

 

Then the trip to Scunny came, PD shuffled the pack and got the result. The day after I watched his post match interview and fell in love with the man all over again, he talks so much sense about everything and to see the players in their interviews saying that they were happy about the win but more importantly pleased for "the gaffer" to get the win speaks volumes.

 

When Talbot came in I agreed with many of the things he did, making players wear suits and I think he stopped them using mobiles at training, for some players, this kind of discipline is needed and can get results. Shez was too close to the players, always hard being promoted from within as it is difficult to maintain the balance, the dogs incident had been waiting to happen for a while.

 

Off-field and on-field Dickov is the man to take this club forward. He has engendered a fantastic team spirit, stuck to his guns regarding the type of player he wants at the club, through necessity or choice isn't scared of playing the kids, if they're good enough they're old enough and he always references the fans with regard to results and thanks their contribution when they've travelled to see a win or a loss. He knows how he wants the game played, how many times has he said "get the basics right", we've lost when we haven't done this and won when we do, it is a pretty simple game at the end of the day.

 

He will drop some right rickets over the coming seasons but I can see him getting more right than wrong, I can see us having a problem keeping hold off him rather than having to dump him out of the back door. We as fans need to back him and stump him the old hard earned to get behind the team and enjoy the football on the pitch, it isn't going to be the same standard as Messi & Xavi as we don't have that budget but when the team clicks it hasn't been bad to watch.

Brilliant post mate! Totally agree.

R.I.P

Confirmed today that Ferguson has held talks with the club!

First half we were poor, second to everything and couldnt string two passes together. Second half we were alot better, we do need to stop trying to walk the ball in the net, and have afew more efforts outside the box. We used the wings well but the final ball was often lacking. It was a frustrating afternoon!

I see theres now a cash turnstile in the Chaddy, has this always been the case and i`ve missed it?

Not a chance it`ll be on.

did it finish 3-2 btw? we had to shoot off !

Oldham XI equalised with a last gasp OG, and then won it on penalties, largely down to three top saves from Oldhams keeper.

D`oh!!

Whatever the lad had said he`d have been slagged off for. He can`t win really either way.

And after Saturday night's house-warming party iin oldham the Portuguese coach revealed he is set to move permanently to oldham

 

oldham have long sought a coach to match their lofty ambitions and Mourinho has long been the man in their sights to return European glory to boundary park .

 

 

 

After leading Inter to an unprecedented treble of Serie A, Coppa Italia and Champions League titles, Mourinho said: "It was difficult to leave Chelsea and it will be sad to leave Inter. Inter is my home in the same way Chelsea was my home. But that's life, that's football.

 

"Now I have two homes, Stamford Bridge and San Siro. And now I will have a third home - probably boundary park
