philliggi

You are welcome to some of mine if you're hungry!

 

I know we are all on the same wavelength but I was concerned it was getting a bit side-tracked. Shows the passion and common sense of people really and there are great points coming from you; garcon; oafc0000 and philligi amongst others.

 

Anyway, gotta pick up the kids!

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.

How many residents rejestered there objections to the plans ? 590 or something wasnt it ?? That still leaves a hell of alot of people who didnt vote against it in that ward!!! The decision that was taken would of been good for Oldham and the local area!!! It certainly would of improved the image and look. The nimbys couldnt see this, to worked up over traffic and 60's flats.....

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.

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?

Bump to find out about thurs meeting

I won't be there on Thursday either.

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?

i dont think dean smalley is good enouh to get 90minutes in an oldham shirt.

His second half performances are not good enough, but Sheridan keeps on leaving him on and taking off players who are playin better thn him.

Just like to no what you think on the situation ?

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.

Out of interest, how are the seven who voted against the proposal split on Party lines? I assume B'shforth and Larkin are from the same Party.

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!!!!

They formed there own local party got elected and pushed through redevelopment of the Valley. Could offer some advice not the first time its been mentioned either.

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

Probably just needs something simple:

 

"You want our Council Tax

 

We want our stadium passed"

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

might work might not.

EEEE III EEEE III EEEE III OOOO

WHERES ARE GROUND GONE WE DONT KNOW

WE'LL JUST KEEP ON MARCHING TILL YOU CHANGE YOUR VOTE

vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

ONE MORE LINE REPEATED THT RHYMES WITH VOTE OR WE COULD MIND INSTEAD OF VOTE

COUNCIL, WHOEVER YOU MAYBE,

YOU'LL GO DOWN IN HISTORY

FOR SHUTTING THE DOOR ON OAFC

CHANGE YOUR MIND AND DONT LET IT BE

I'll be there. With the bf, the bruv and the grumps.

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

Keep going all you fellow Tics.

 

Its things like this that make you realise how proud we are to be BLUE (and tangerine).

 

I'll be there with four others.

 

Tell your Mum, tell your Gran, TELL THE WORLD. Together we CAN make a difference.

 

TTA must see we feel their hurt BUT we will do whatever is needed to get our amazing Club where TTA and we want it to be.

 

KEEP THE FAITH (and spread the word)

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

Vegas player ' Who the **** is Norman Wisdom'.

 

Caption aside, why is the ball in the net?

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

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

Ahem................Thommo is still crocked for at least a month. Woohoo! Macca it is then.

 

Could look something like this

 

Gk - Bring yer boots, they're all in nappies or on crutches or just plainly owd and knackered!

RB - Macca

CB -Trotters

CB - Stam

LB - Bertrand

RW - Deano

CM - Allott

CM - Kalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala or will Shez gamble and give Chalmers a go????

LW - Ginger Ninja

CF - Davies

CF - Hughes

 

no brainer really, unless Lidds is fit then Smalley will be on the bench. No other options really

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
