    Flavour beans and Kia-Ora?
  2. Inspiral_Carpet
    I would agree. But the precedent has been set a number of times with regards Salford and the Class of 92.

    Having read the EFL rules regarding “dual interests”, there are a number of conditions that apply and which would necessitate an application to the EFL to bring any such potential dual interests to their attention. Some of those are quoted earlier in this thread. It doesn’t mean that someone can’t have a dual interest, it just requires that the EFL need to be aware of it and give their blessing before the person can be appointed. Presumably there will will be similar governance and “cross-affiliation” rules covering the Premier League (Butt); FA (Neville G and P); The Welsh FA (Giggs); UEFA (Neville G) and FIFA (Beckham) for their past and present dual interests. Why should it be any different for Scholes? Suggests to me that any approval of dual interest for Scholes is just a formality and quite possibly, until the confirmation is given by the EFL, the reason why there has been no formal response from OAFC or Scholes himself. So, unless the EFL say “no”, Scholes doesn’t have to give up his 10% in Salford to become manager of Latics.

    Having been to Dubai a few times, I can confirm that they have phones and WiFi. Might be one of the reasons why Scholes was one of the first investors buying a piece of Palm Island? AL may just pop round for a brew! AL made a number of decisions and financial commitments before he officially owned Latics so I don’t see any reason why Scholes can’t have similar input regarding players prior to being announced as manager.

    Not Season Ticket holders? Goalposts moving again or are you just acting like a hurt child today? Your posts would suggest that’s the case.

    Thank fuck that Latics allowed me to buy 4 tickets for me and my 3 sons despite my DL postcode. Maybe you should get on the Donny website and help educate their ticket office staff?

    One of your better fishing trips today Eyresy. The value that you add is great. Well done

    It was still saying they were only available to Season Ticket holders. I emailed the Club and Billy sorted it straight away. Legend. You should be ok to order now but if not, send an email to supporter.services@oldhamathletic.co.uk.

    Are you Dave_Og’s brother?
  11. Inspiral_Carpet
    Until it’s confirmed by Grasscroft Latic, this will just be an unsubstantiated rumour I’m afraid
  12. Inspiral_Carpet
    Banged his head off the dugout roof Dave.
  13. Inspiral_Carpet
    Working for me. Had to reboot my phone though just before kick off. Hope you get sorted as it has been fine since kick-off.

    Just checked with mate who texted me. He has now said it was a rumour at the ground and he didn’t see them himself. Apologies if this turns out to be bollocks
  15. Inspiral_Carpet
    Text from a mate at the game. No reason to disbelieve it and they were spotted walking up to the ground so not sure where they are sitting/ standing.
  16. Inspiral_Carpet
    Or more likely a trip to Gordon’s Takeaway with Muttley McLad after the game?
  17. Inspiral_Carpet
    Scholes and Butt in attendance.

    Happy memories! Always got into Dreamers in time for Soft Cell and Tainted Love. Don’t think they had a DJ - just the same tape they played every night! Sounds like there were a few of us with the same routine!

    No worries. Until the next time I can arsed trying to nail jelly to a wall
  21. Inspiral_Carpet
    She was a United fan. Had a little ‘Fred the Red’ tattoo on her arse. Wiki is definitely more trustworthy in that case

    I’m pretty sure his house is in Friezland An ex-girlfriend of mine went to his wedding and visited the Scholes’ regularly!

    If we are wanting to sign players in January knowing only too well about the SCMP regulations and financial embargoes, I think it’s a pretty good shout that the round 1 and 2 money would have been included in the budget. I’d guess the round 3 money will have been added now too. The delay with Sefil was more likely due to dealing with the Martinique FA to get international clearance.
  24. Inspiral_Carpet
    What? We had the income. That gave scope to increase the wage bill. Therefore the reason we were unable to sign Sefil in the same week as we signed Sylla was not due to a financial embargo under SCMP.
  25. Inspiral_Carpet
    Irrelevant. It is club income that increases the amount that potentially can be spent under the SCMP. The Fulham game will have increased that even further.
