Diego_Sideburns Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 The dog looks as interested in watching football as our fans today. Maybe but it's maintaining the dog-walkers' tradition, which stopped Latics building Sports Park 2000 on Clayton Playing Fields. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP1960 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 No, plenty of other places to walk a dog. Dogs used to regularly run on the pitch at BP, the good old days. I seem to remember that wonderful eccentric referee Mr Fussey chasing a terrier out of the ground once, great fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aarondo Westy Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Had a good look at the new stand interior today but there wasn't one.......just WTF is happening??? I went to the club shop at around mid day, looked at the inside of the stand I will be amazed if any Christmas parties go ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands on Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Lees now £2.70 in Rifle Range and I'm back where I used to be pre game. Spoke to someone yesterday who has a Christmas do in three weeks. At least there was a light bulb shinning inside but three weeks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be fairly simple to work out the cash cost but the goodwill cost is something else altogether. Hard to imagine anyone that has been let down rebooking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc1955 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 We have had no progress reports at all of late, surely it's not too much to ask for a bulletin as to where we're at just now. I'm sure box holders, 100 club members, and us ST holders would love to know just what is going on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the paying customer will be the last to know, its worrying the club don't seem to give a hoot or even get a feel for how disenchanted many fans are at the moment, It may hit home when they wonder why many fans don't renew next season, they have my money for this season but I will be very reluctant to renew for next season if things dont improve on and off the pitch.

ghostofcecere Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I've been contacted today about the rearranged Simon Wood do. It's being held on January 15th in the Broadway suite so they must be expecting to be fully operational by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure box holders, 100 club members, and us ST holders would love to know just what is going on! On the subject of those 100 club members, all the photos of home games show a big empty block where their seats are. Does that mean they're still in the main stand because there's no halftime facilities, or are there just not 100 of them? Not a dig, just wondering.

The 100 club was sold out and some are in the man stand getting freebies and some dont bother going. Perhaps others are in the RRE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps others are in the RRE I could be wrong, but it was my understanding that the 100 club are being entertained in the boxes on stilts at the corner of the Chaddy/main stand if they so desired.

Partly in the boxes and partly in the Main stand old exec seats. There is an option to sit in the North stand but the lack of pre-match/half time facilities and refreshments means that very few have taken this option up.

I think those empty seats are for the box holders, there were quite a few 100 club members in their seats on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lags Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 My opinion, Leg room is ample, sideways movement impossible and feel like a sardine in a can.
