LaticsLegend Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Right, not sure on the truth, but ive been told that the new deal is close to being finalised with someone that came up a few weeks ago, John Wardle. Not sure which company of his it is (dont know what he owns these days) but apparently its a near done deal. Good deal for the club if true. Anyone know what he owns anymore? Sold his stake in JD i think?, so i dont think it will be them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetramfixer Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 The youth team played in these against Rovrum. a 'quit smoking' kinda sponsor, besides which if you look at our goalie he has 'hillstones' on his shirt... personally speaking, i couldn't give a rats bottom about who's name is on the shirt... i have the home one already, and didn't manage to get a 'high vis' one so whoevers name goes on that is neither here on there... just hope it's not summat like 'slimfast'.... that wouldn't look to good on a shirt that i'm wearing!!!!!

eball Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 John Wardle and Dave Makin now own Footasylum so it might be them, My missus works there though and she hasn't heard anything but it still could be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego_Sideburns Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 The youth team played in these against Rovrum. This is a red herring, as the Quit-it sponsorship of the Youth team was announced on Valentine's Day. http://www.oldhamathletic.premiumtv.co.uk/...1241330,00.html However, a preview of the new sponsored kit was given to those at the Youth team game at Little Wembley on Saturday but apparently they were sworn to secrecy. We'll have to wait until the new sponsor is announced by Tuesday, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

singe Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I demand that we pull out of this deal immediately. The TTA should resign. They call trainers [whisper it] Sneakers on their webpage. I mean, it's just not cricket.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest M_OAFC Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 The youth team did as much experimenting with kits as they did with their team! They look to have a stronger squad this season anyway. A few of their better players didn't feature for some reason but they were still comfortably the better team especially first half. Looked a little disjonited second half and didn't keep the ball as well but all the substitutions probably played a part in that. That new first year centre half who I think we got from City looked good as did Tom Eaves - a big target man who is now a first year apperentice having come through our centre of excellence - and second year midfield playmaker Chris Rowney was good as well.
