  1. Really? we pay out a hell of alot to farmers in terms of the Common agricultural policy More farms equals more funding to them result higher taxes. We might pay less interms of food in the supermarket but it would just go out the other way interms of tax. As their would be less houses the prices of them would be even higher than they are now. Which means that people would have to borrow even more money for mortgages and developments.
  2. In all honesty it depends on what things you buy regarding inflation obviously at the moment things like fuel and food are rising above the average. The club have said what price the ticket prices are going to be next season and if we enter a recession I can't see them putting up the prices mid season at all people will have less money they won't be able to justify it. Rudemedic - Sky pay the extortiante fees for the rights so that they can sell the premier league abroad. They know the Premier League has a high value globally. We have been talking about clubs at this level having to go part time or to the wall aslong as I have been watching football and like all the other clubs at this level we have been making a loss in that time yet have still managed to survive.
  3. The credit crunch and impending economic slowdown will have an effect over the next season it depends on the levels of unemployment really. But not as greater an effect as people choosing to watch other teams on Sky in that sense its not too dissimilar to other seasons really. To be fair to TTA regarding the price of going to Oldham this is the 4th season in succession where pay on the day prices have remained the same. The impact of the economy is going to be most felt by the Stadium development and how many property developers will be prepared to take on the residential development as banks are becoming much tougher on lending money to people through mortgages and lending to developers to take on new projects. Result being that this stadium development may take longer than was first hoped and hit TTA in the pocket personally. Although as we haven't heard otherwise we must assume that the new main stand and residential development will go ahead as scheduled
  4. Yeah it was all the fans fault we are worst people in the universe so what was his excuse at Southend, Leeds, Cardiff, Preston, Middlesborough, Bolton, and Walsall. The guy couldn't play for 90 minutes he just got knackered which for someone at 28 is poor to say the least. He won an England cap and he thought he was gods gift perhaps it all came abit to quick for him hence why he is just another player who had all the talent to be at the top but none of the heart to do so he is a waster in my book.
  5. Not bad for a midfielder when you consider what was Richie Wellens highest goal tally for a season and he has been consistently been one of the best midfielders in League 1 for the past 5 seasons. Not that Wellens should be remembered as anything less than a good player for us but it goes to show that Ernie did have something about him skill wise He could find the back of the net. Ernie would be the type of player who would arrive in the box to get on the end of a cross think his goal against QPR which I'm sure was his most memorable. " My aim is to get psychically fit , even that would be over achieving, but we all have a dream" That sentence brings a tear to the eye.
  6. That would be the most fitting tribute to the great man.
  7. Really! Well I saw a slim line Johnny Vegas walking into Granada yesterday you could just tell by the look on his face he knew nothing at all about the new stadium development or for that mattered cared and I didn't ask him which must mean we are moving to Ashton!
  8. To the tune of you'll never beat Earl Barret We saw you miss at Wembley We saw you miss at Wembley
  9. Always prefer the minutes applause option to the minute silence celebrate his life ERNIE! ERNIE! ERNIE! ERNIE!
  10. Like everyone else I'm devastated. I'm going through a difficult time at work and am being made redundent but this has put that into sharp perspective. Will remember him for the first time I saw him in a home friendly against blackburn in the summer of hell. Knowone was trying harder than him on that occasion and the fans took to him instantly it was easy to appreciate his efforts because he was so honest and brave and thats the biggest compliment I can pay him. If the whistle blew for you to go over the top in the trenches ernie was the guy you would want by your side he would never let you down.
  11. Please lets not play fanfare for the common man its just BORING it was great for the late 80's early 90's but it should be left there. I am coming round to the idea of a Mouldy Old Dough in a kind of Everton Z-cars theme way and we have never actually ran out to MOD since I have been coming (1990).
  12. Well Ive just got back from barcelona on a high and to hear this news like everyone else I'm devastated. Thanks for keeping us upto date Martin on his condition and to anyone who has done any fund raising for his family in this time well done your efforts won't have been in vain I'm sure. I like the idea of renaming the Rose Bowl trophy to The Ernie Cooksey rose Bowl Trophy as its a fitting tribute to someone who played for both clubs With heart, passion, courage and honesty. He will always be a fans favourite as you knew he was the type of guy whould leave nothing in the changing room. All the Best Ernie
  13. Bit before my time but didn't Arsenal pay £1million for Clive Allen in the early eighties and he left the very same summer he was signed. For us a name that hasn't been mentioned Ian Olney our record signing Discuss?
  14. Because we don't really know anything about the players coming in we can't really say how well they will do. However they could be rough diamonds and that is what I believe shez has tried to unearth here. We have already addressed 3 key areas for improvement on last season. A new physio to combat injury problems. More squad depth to again mean we can cope with missing a few players, and getting our players signed up early allowing us as someone has said maximum time to gel. We still need to address 2 more key areas firstly as everyone has said the left side of the pitch to give us that balance, and secondly our delivery from set pieces which is still an area we can improve on.
  15. For me I want to hear mouldy old dough as I walk through the turnstiles and am taking to my seat buying a programme/pie because thats what will for me always be assoicated with going to Latics. i hope its always used at Latics and is forever connected with us. However I wouldn't want it as the tune we run out too as it neither gets the heart pumping or is something that we could all sing along too together like You'll never walk alone or Blue Moon.
  16. ah right didn't realise that oops well I now look a tit don't don't I
