super_blue Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I am a guest in a box on Saturday, can anybody confirm if the seat is on the inside or outside of the box, so i know it to take a coat if outside? Ty in advance. Not sure you'll get a conclusive answer here just a lot of guessing and 'I heard' thoughts. Call the club to be sure or whoever your a guest of in the box.

RoyleArmy1994 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 The directors moving into their new suite then? Theres a directors box and seating isnt there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc1955 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Think the directors chose to stay in the main stand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaddySmoker Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Which suite is it that people can use before the game ? To my knowledge none yet. Only the 100 club members & visitors in the boxes can do as of now! (The Broadway Suite) I am a guest in a box on Saturday, can anybody confirm if the seat is on the inside or outside of the box, so i know it to take a coat if outside? Ty in advance. I believe you can move outside if you wish! Think the directors chose to stay in the main stand There is definately a (larger) box in the North Stand for them to use-I have no idea on time schedule though http://oldhameventcentre.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego_Sideburns Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Following the front page news earlier in the week, I was wondering on which page in tonight's Chron this appeared? http://www.oldham-chronicle.co.uk/news-features/8/news-headlines/95681/new-stand-ready-for-party-guests Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underdog Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Bloody fantastic.....yes it was a bloody fantastic night at the winter wonderland event last night. We were greated by the event manager and a lady board member of the club, taken to our room which was decked out, was sung to by a singer who sang all the swing numbers from the rat pack and then a lovely, three course meal cooked by master chef Simon wood and his team. Lastly, we threw some shapes on the dance floor too with a good DJ. Other than a bit of fine tuning, bearing mind it was the opening event. The staff did well. Also the united and city fans amongst us did not burst into flames by crossing over the threshold of BP....okay maybe not so perfect after all..ha Oldham chron sent a photographer so hopefully some positive press too. The boxes are prepped too from what I saw on the corridor. So it's now rolling on to the footy and the festive fun day...I'll be just about recovered to shake a bucket near the north stand. See you then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafcprozac Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Maybe the Chron can stick it on the front page again and relegate paedophile councillors to page 3 again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostofcecere Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 It will be interesting to see how many of the posters on here who are normally itching at the keyboard to repeat bad news about the stand and club, come on to post positive comments after the apparent success of the (albeit delayed) opening night!

SavageTheBeast Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Seems last night was a success, hopefully the people who have boxes enjoy themselves today. Hopefully the chron does a good write up and not a small the club need some good publicity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands on Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 The roof will work well so long as the rain behaves and falls in straight lines. Memories of sitting in the paddock. Given something to cheer who cares about the rain. Now where did I put that poncho? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I am not one of the above it is quite difficult to write about the sucess of something that is 4 months late! I'm pretty certain SC will partly attribute the stand delays to the disappoints of this SEason if and when he comes out of hiding Anyway now that we have a functioning stand and SD shop I look forward to us splashing the cash in Jan following our improved budget......that's what Mr Corney said isn't it?

yarddog73 Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Tbf it is the most pointless roof ever. The pointless roof kept me dry on the one occassion its rained when I've sat in the stand, if the rain falls in nice vertical lines its fine if its blowing or swirling in horizontally its of little use.

To be fair its normally the only place I can find any news good or bad about the Stand. Glad its up and running now lets hope it coincides with our fortunes changing for the better on the pitch as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you bring good news when there have delays labourers walking off the job? I've tried to bring good news like last week but it is very rare.

With the stand construction going so far over budget and extra salaries being paid without any income to date, I think it will be a very long time before this 24/7 operation puts any monies into the kitty of OAFC Ltd-probably just the opposite to date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al_bro Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 With the stand construction going so far over budget and extra salaries being paid without any income to date, I think it will be a very long time before this 24/7 operation puts any monies into the kitty of OAFC Ltd-probably just the opposite to date SC said in his last interview that they had budgeted for the stand being open on time, and had therefore got a bigger squad than would have otherwise been the case. This was probably the reason for the delayed wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
