  1. Watching Crewe, go up in the play offs, just drilled it home to me what a bloody bore it is being an Oldham fan, they are like us, although a better ground but similar amount of fans, and skint to boot.

    But their fans have a much more exciting time than us, yes they actually change divisions! sometimes up and sometimes down, but at least something happens, not us no, I've watched Oldham for over 40 years and during that time i've seen 2 promotions and 2 relegations, jesus what i'd give for something to happen.

     

    But they have a better template than us, they havent a lot of money, and so they have to use the kids, those kids like this season have gelled together because they havent had a choice, whilst us with a good youth set up will bring in a load of players on loan rather than use our own kids, players who dont give a :censored: about latics, and even less about where we go.

    Some of the best football I saw this season was the 2nd half of the final game, when the youth came in, and actually played some cracking football, and i dont care about people saying you cant put em in they are too young, they will get better as they play more together, they are hungry and not just waiting for the end of the season to see where there agent has got them a move too, (and in Latics case it would be a free move as well), as we dont seem to have the first idea about contracts at this club, if that kid who scored the wonder goal for Crewe was an Oldham player he'd be out of contract now, not helping to rake in the reported 4 million that the club will now utilise to re build and bring in some more expierienced players for the up coming season whilst still keeping the formula working.

    They might go down, they could stay up but at least in the next few years something will happen, better than this boring ooh what might have been season repeating itself like groundhog day every year.

     

    When Corney said how much the loan players had cost us for season the ineptitude just beggered belief, If PD wants loans, tell him to :censored: off and see what Philliskirk has got for him, if he doesnt like it, tell him where to go and stick Philliskirk in the job, or somebody like him, some of the football I saw last year was as bad a Penny's, some games I only needed one hand to count the shots never mind goals.

    And thats why the Zebra Finance forms remain on the fireplace, filled in but not being posted anytime soon !!

  2. Key point.

     

    Who owns Boundary Park? Who's building houses behind the chaddy? Who owns the lancaster club and surrounding land?

     

    I bet that Oldham Athletic (2004) Ltd. Do not.

     

    Without the land, the club is assetless. At this point I dont care whether its Boundary Park or the Lancaster Club but the club needs to own some land itself. Rather than Brass "Blitz" Bank.

     

     

    Just on that point, I spoke to the club for an investor looking to purchase multiple Houses once built, and I got an email Back from Simon Blitz to say he would be dealing directly with discounted property and to point them in his direction.... not the developers !!!
