Why bother posting what you think in the first place then??? "largely baseless optimism" kettle calling pot black springs to mind.....

I didnt know we were now making managers walk the plank lol let him jump i say ARGHHHHHH!! seriously a decent point though, one worth considering as BB80 says, at least it gives a different angle on it (apologies to those who have)

Aye i might give it a go, if all else fails, id be more than happy to try to get back for it if i cant, just to put another vote against him, show him how strong i felt about it and still do

NO NO, CAN YOU HEAR THE RANGERS SING???? LOW LIE, THE FIELDS OF ATHENRY........... absolutely chuffed

I live in royton south, and il be definitley voting for anyone other than Harrisson (as long as im home from university)

Anyone watching the game tonite? i fancy celtic to win 2-0, be sat there in the pub proudly wearing my celtic shirt

Sheridan spotted parking on double yellows on sheepfoot lane!!! Sheridan Out!! I like this game of clutching at straws

Although not at boundary park, my dad's car got broke into at everton this season. little good that did them as all there was in the car was paint tins lol

May i ask what the current/ex chaddy did to get the sack/quit? or is this one of them private matters ?

Hope he pulls through, he was 100% commitment ERNIE FOR ENGLAND!!!

hang your head in shame

Was wondering about this the other night with me dad, an thought it would be interesting to see how many i have been to, apologies if this was done a while back and i missed it. The grounds ive been to so far during my 15 (19 now) or so years following latics (other footy in brackets): The Premiership Wigan Derby Everton Birmingham (Birmingham vs Arsenal) Man City (New, England Friendly) The Championship Hull Burnley (England under 20's) Wolves Barnsley Blackpool PNE Scunthorpe Colchester League One Notts Forest Leeds Walsall Tranmere Huddersfield Hartlepool Gillingham Crewe Luton Bournemouth Port Vale League Two Bradford Mk Dons (The crappy hockey stadium) Rotherham Peterborough Chesterfield Rochdale Stockport Bury Accrington Stanley Maccelsfield Town Notts County Wrexham Think i make that about 38 though i think i included the old wembley too so make it 39. How about the rest of you??

Best of luck to him, wish him all the best

Hear hear lol ;)

I found the ending to be quite odd too, i felt this took a bit of the gloss off what is a failry decent film 7/8 out of ten

BP1960- Do you still scout for latics? and if so what do you think of our current crop of youngsters, the first and second years?

Another sour note im sorry, as my dads car had been smashed into and this is the first time ever its happened at an away game for us, just at the beginning of the east lancs road near the sports college, not to sure if its footy related, as it looked liked they had a good rummage through (all they found was paint lol) though the police seem to think it was as they left a letter saying thats what its been logged as matchday incident or something like that. Bleedin Scousers

Im going to be pessimistic and say 5-0 to the latics Seriously, my heart says 3-2 latics with a last gasp winner sending the 5000 strong barmy army absolutley mental but my head says everton by any score with the referee to determine the outcome with a dodgy decision leaving us to rue our luck C'mon you Bluessssssssss!!!!!!!!!!

What time and where abouts in the civic centre? il try me best to get there being picked up from uni at 6 and may be back around quater past seven hopefully sooner

Heres my email : Dear Mr Bennett, I will first state I ‘am a Oldham athletic supporter and secondly a resident (19 years old) of this once great industrial town. From an Oldham supporters point of view, as I ‘am sure it is evident that many have already contacted you with evidence and views of why the club needs the proposals to be passed and I will not bore you with details of my own, just that this planning proposal needs to be passed for the survival of the club and not for as some that have made up and would have you believe that this is solely for the profit and greed of the owners. Now for as I ‘am a resident of this town I would like to present a subjective a view as possible and bore you with my views on this. I feel for this town to move forward change needs to happen, and fast. Firstly the football club would not survive if this application was not to be passed leaving no professional sports club in this town. Secondly revival of the Oldham west end area and old town hall. Its good to see that there is proposals to change these areas and redevelop but as of yet there appears to be nothing. No sort of social leisure facilities i.e. bowling, cinema providing the people of Oldham something different to do in there spare time and with their money rather than doing so in other towns. As for myself, and I don’t use this as a threat more a result of inaction on the council’s part, I fear I will move away from this town if no change occurs, and especially if the football club does not survive, as I don’t feel this town has anything to offer me or any young family I may wish to have. I feel others my age may feel the same but I will not speak as if on there behalf. This could leave a hole in skilled young professionals for the town if no change occurs. For a major company, brand or franchise to wish to set up shop in Oldham ,so to speak, these are things which they require. So far I can see why no major company has wished provide business here as it sees the council in not providing any way to keep its potential young and skilled work pool here providing problems for major companies, thus having to employ people from out of town which could be and probably would be costly in turn showing no real benefit to the town of Oldham. I have no crystal ball and don't wish to scaremonger yourself and others into a decision, I just wish to highlight what may happen. That is why I fear that if this proposal is not passed not only will I lose my football club but also I feel that it may in turn, if the above scenario takes place, force me to leave and seek a life elsewhere. I hope you don’t and you probably don't either as I hope you and all the councillors have the town at heart and though some peoples motives appear that this is not true I ‘am sure this is the case but if you view this application as none too significant and do not pass it then Oldham could eventually just become another suburb of Manchester ,and once viewed as such by higher authorities, the council could lose its power. A once great town forgotten in the annals of history. One match to burn a thousand trees..... Yours Sincerely, **** *****

Who me?

Wonder what reply we would get if everyone emailed bashforth with this

Think the posters in your home windows idea is a good 'un, maybe something simple like support our stadium and distribute them through the club shop and other outlets, constant reminder all over oldham for those likely to forget

Im going to go ahead and chuck Neil warnock into the mix as i cant believe he hasnt been mentioned yet!!

Id like to see this evidence of why neil is a bit full of himself tbh, bit unfair to judge people youve never met!!
