Short highlights of the Raja Casablanca game now on LP. Looks like we got carved open through the middle quite a few times.... keeper(s) had a blinder.
Good cross (Gevaro), good header (Sylla?) good finish (Vera) for our goal though.

They made a point of telling us, in bold, that they hadn’t heard yet. If that has changed and the haven’t told the people they represent then of course that is farcical. You don’t half have some double standards.
They haven't 'formally' heard...... so your grandstanding is irrelevant. They did however tell us in Feb they knew of a party in discussion with the owner of the ACV, without any 'formality'......

Could have... but if the Trust haven’t informed the fans they represent of such a significant change then that would be an absolute farce.
....they're only morally obligated to tell us if they've heard from the council regarding the ACV [the ACV that they set up for us].... as it happens, they've told us a party are in discussion to purchase the ACV long before that stage. So, your post is a bit of a farce......

They have because they have been invited to join the FLG as part of the right of refusal under the ACV.
https://trustoldham.co.uk/boundary-park-purchase/.....that's what I thought.... but read this.... formal notification not received, yet!

That's not correct. The FLG have stated the following;-
As previously outlined, the purchase has been agreed and once this is complete we will be able to release further details on the next stage.
As Kow pointed out yesterday, the Trust haven't received formal notification of a sale by the council as an obligation of their ACV..... yet! Suggests both parties [FLG and Blitz] still talking.....

They own nothing and haven’t made an attempt to buy anything yet. We know this because the Trust hasn’t been legally notified of an intention to buy and given their six months to counter/agree.
They're running the OEC Ltd, so I do wonder if they own that entity? Companies Ho says otherwise, albeit that's not definitive.... also note: Accounts Overdue!

So, now we've covered how to Predict and how points are scored, one hopes it's clear how the tables are formed? Below are the final 2018/19 League tables, which consisted of a Premier League, Championship & League One.
- @Ex_pat was the victorious Premier League champion for a record breaking 3rd time [14/15, 15/16, 18/19] by correctly Predicting the outcome of 25 games during the season, more than anyone else.
- @south east latic was the king of HT. 18 correct Predictions.
- To accompany his Championship title, @Benja impressively predicted the exact score on 9 occasions, exact number of Latics' goals 17 times [tied with @aidan_latics], but was beaten to exact Opposition goals by @pjkent who got it right 22 times.
- Four different predictors managed to correctly predict the outcome of Latics' first goalscorer on 9 occasions, they were bitter rivals @milnrow latics & @LaticsPete, @Monty Burns and @rosa, alas it couldn't save the latter from relegation.
- The King of attendance was @youngen who amassed 52 points including an exact prediction for game against MK Dons, as detailed above, helping to propel him into the Premier League for the first time this coming season.
For the forthcoming 2019/20 season - subject to Predictor numbers - could see 4 leagues and the introduction of League Two, meaning any new Predictors would be attempting to achieve exactly the same as our beloved club.

I'm not sure it takes that much money run a 4th division club. It does if your owner relies on it to fund his transatlantic lifestyle and strange obsession with Chinese perimeter boards, or wildly expensive foreign players of variable quality.
Andy Holt seems to be doing a pretty good job of running a 3rd division club with arguably less revenue/income.....

A great point made and probably sadly lost on those with an agenda to "force" AL and who seem hellbent on watching the World burn.
Also, as someone said above , it takes a lot of money for a FLG to run a football club. Even more to take on someone who may (or may not) have backers and some deep pockets to access should it be required fight such a fight. Let's hope we win the first 5 games and maybe some much needed sense and harmony can be applied to the off-field situation.
Interesting that your narration makes it sound like the FLG are the primary protagonists here......

Re kick off times, I've got a 1952/3 Season Ticket that has the following info in it:
Aug 23 to Oct 4 3.0 ko
Oct 11 - Nov 1 2.45
Nov 8 - Nov 22 2.30
Nov 29 - Dec 27 2.15
Jan 3 - Jan 17 2.30
Jan 24 - Jan 31 2.45
Feb 7 - May 2 3.0
I wonder how many people turned up late (or early).
Went ambitiously early with 3pm on Feb 7th....
....it's also spot on that the season should not begin in the 1st week of August..... nor should it drag on past the 1st week of May.

I think we played in the first ever Sunday game, Was it against Cambridge in the FA cup?
FA Cup S/F weekend in 1990 was the original Super Sunday and what Sky based their idea off a couple of years later.....

Didn’t know where to put this.... so seeing as I’ve been posting old footage of games in this thread for Prediction purposes.... seems as good a place as any (we don’t predict cup games though). I can remember every goal from this footage as I had it on VHS and watched it over and over again as a boy. Enjoy.

Sigh. Perhaps if you read it properly.
One more time...
We (I) DON’T know who the FLG are... we DO know who they have EMPLOYED/SECURED, one of which is very underwhelming.
Got it now?
6 minutes ago, kowenicki said:No. You haven’t been paying attention.
2 minutes ago, kowenicki said:No it means I am unimpressed with one and reserve judgement on the others. But it’s all fine. You say it’s all hunky dory and you are a real stickler for detail and evidence from owners/possible owners of things. So that’ll do for me.
2 minutes ago, kowenicki said:Its obvious from my posts.
Do you ever worry that you might come over like a right bell end?

I've interpreted it like Over 1.5 goals.....

You're "unimpressed with at least one of those involved" (so two or more) but at the same time "know zero about them", & "have no idea who they are"????
Talk us through this.......
Doesn’t “at least one”.... mean ‘one or more’....?

So in the space of 2 minutes you have gone from clear motive to we assume.
I can understand the optimism-we haven't had much recently but as Kow keeps stating-we know little or nothing about any of the take over persons. One fact we do know is they want the fans to be involved financially in the future. This could be good or bad, but football does not have a great record of taking supporters money and using it well.
The first one says, “I think....”
The second one says, “If we assume...”

....then you are correct, it would appear formal notice hasn't yet been given. I believe that formal notice would have to come from Oldham council, because it is they who the ACV is registered with.
-
16 minutes ago, kowenicki said:
They said they hadn’t had that notice last time they were asked. Might have changed?
If they haven’t had it then the FLG haven’t made much progress.
If they have and not given all details they know to fans then that is piss poor.
I read this statement and conclude notice has been given....

Just now, kowenicki said:
I’m glad one of us is in the know.
Have the Trust confirmed if the legal notification of a proposed purchase has been made to them yet? I’m under the impression they get first refusal and have to be given prior notice and time to launch a rival purchase plan.
...presumably the Trust's involvement from outset was/is tacit evidence that said notice had been given, no....?

....to be fair... I’ve been lamenting Marco for not stocking enough at the games I’ve been to.... and it would appear it’s Blitz who’s been taking the p1ss. I shoulda known better. The c%#t.
