I think the idea about standing in every ward is a good one, but is it achievable? if we are going to do this though i must agree that we have to represent the regeneration of Oldham as a whole, not just safe guarding the future development of boundary park. There is a danger that we may be seen as "a group of drunkern football hooligans dabbling in something which is out of their league". This might sound a bit daft, but that is basically how a few people i have spoken to saw the march before it happened, and so did not attend. WE need to approach this proffessionally and responsibly, and the only way we can do that is by representing the borough as a whole, not just latics. this would be easier to do i feel if we could get a candidate in each ward. each ward candidate would get more individual votes, if they had other candidates in other wards campaigning on their behalf.

Doesnt matter how many residents voted against the application, when talking about a candidate standing, because our candidate would be in a different ward i believe.

Bump to find out about thurs meeting

I might have missed something here, but people keep mentioning thursday. I havent seen any details about a meeting, just heard in passing. could someone update me please?

Just sent an email to that Development plan, but i would like to post the same letter to all the councillors. would someone please post the email addresses of the councillors for me please? thanks in advance

Don't suppose anyone has noticed that we have 0% living in the ward of Coldhurst? the Ward of BP, and the Residents?

smalley wasnt good enough all game, not just in the second half, but ya cant blame the lad. against tranmere he was upfront, against donni on the left and against vale on the right. you cant expect a player of his age to be able to adapt that easily. Sheridan was very much at fault today. with Liddell injured now is the perfect opportunity to give taylor a run at right wing (although admittedly taylor had his best game on the left for a long time today) Shez needs to think long and hard about his selections if you ask me. Smalley should be no where near the first team imo.

Bashforth and Larkin are Labour, and i Believe christine Wheeler is as well. not sure about the others

maybe the fans team can play a team from carlton way? Winner takes all? fully in support of the poster idea btw cracking idea, the advertiser doesnt get circulated until weds tho, we may have heard some news either way by then

To the tune of Glad all over Theres only THREE AMIGO'S only, THREE AMIGO'S, only, THREE AMIGO'S, and we're be-hind you!!!!

that actually sounds like a really good idea. believe it or not i know tony larkin very well, and he has been telling me for years its passionate people like me who care about the town who need to be on the council. (good advice tony). we should seriously give this some thought ya know, will take time to gather pace tho

i went hell for leather and got a bit excited. like you say, some of these rags will be in league with our council, but its worth a try. the sun the mirror the times the mail the guardian the sport (why not) NOTW the telegraph i also emailed itv sport to get incontact with joe royle for us, because he appeared on soccer night tonight. hey its worth a try. ill keep you posted of any replies. none as yet

would it be worth printing out some song sheets to pass around the marchers, we will obviously be chanting songs none of us have ever chanted befroe, so to ensure they get belted out, song sheets could be the way forward

Do it soon please, or just get your coat

y thank you!

Am i reading your post as fiction kyle, as per your sig? bloody hope not!!!

COUNCIL, WHEREVER YOU MAY BE YOU'LL GO DOWN IN HISTORY FOR SHUTTING THE DOOR, ON OAFC, CHANGE YOUR MIND AND DONT LET IT BE any more for any more?

just an idea for a chant, focused on the councils decision COUNCIL, WHOEVER YOU MAYBE, YOU'LL GO DOWN IN HISTORY FOR SHUTTING THE DOOR ON OAFC CHANGE YOUR MIND AND DONT LET IT BE

heres another idea, dunno if its fiesable like, how about having a collection among the marchers to put towards the cost of resubmitting plans? would show TTA that we are all willing to put our money where our mouth is

cracking idea this. ill deffo be there straight from work. just found out my best mates dad was one of the concillors who voted against, just tried ringing him, but no answer. as soon as i have quizzed him about it, ill let ya all know if i have any inside info

Paul "greed" Reid Paul Dixon for getting Tricky Ricky sent off

that was a spare ball, otherwise known as a block of concrete

cloughy is enjoying himself in that last picture. get a room!!!!!

Personally id go: gk Crossley (purely cos he is the only option, he is crap tho lb lomax (if as been said he is back) cb Stam cb Trotman rb macca lw Bertrand rw Taylor cm allott cm kalala st Davies st Hughes i know the midfield looks a little lightweight, but the rest of the team is by far the strongest line up possible with the players available. one thing tho, id put hazell in at right back if fit, and macca in cm in place of kalala.

the northampton performance affected alot of peoples decisions, and many wont pay to see a performance like that again, however if they had been at tranmere im sure we would have seen another 1000 on the gate
