BurritoBrother Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 i'll be attending my first Latics match on Saturday vs Brentford. i grew up and currently live in America. specifically live in Atlanta now. i have recently become an Oldham supporter. i realise it's a tense time with the club right now and Penney could be fired soon but i'm very much looking forward to this game on Saturday and a Latics win. i land in Manchester Friday morning, will head straight to Oldham from there. any suggestions? cheers, -Burrito Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garcon Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Enjoy the game, try not to let the atmosphere put you off if there isn't one/it gets nasty (it might). I'd suggest arranging to meet up with some of the regulars on here before/after the match to extend the day a bit - not much fun coming in alone, sitting on your own then going back to your hotel/lodgings. Any of the Grey Mare/White Hart/Rifle Range regulars care to volunteer?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lags Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Can I just point out you've asked for suggestions then tell us your itenary is already sorted!!! Tell your mate you wanna get down and dirty with the fans in their natural surroundings and rub shoulders with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outoftheblue Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 i would do that if i didn't have a host who knows what is going on and where to go to become intoxicated Not sure you're aware of the scale of drinking needed to survive the match to be honest. Intoxicated won't do it. Rat Arsed is the very least you need to be, working up the scale to just short of comatose should we perform like we did against Tranmere. Enjoy it anyway, but don't get your hopes up too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
