youngen Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 What if its an elaborate ploy to discover a mole/s within the club... Hope so... Like a :censored: version of 24.

joe_lead Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 On .... off ..... on ..... 80%on ..... off ..... on It may be a simple communication breakdown. The Sky reporter is asking his source about the situation with the Evans deal, but the source thinks he keeps asking about 'orange peel' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueatheart Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 If Dan Roan's reporting is correct then this is a bull:censored: reason to call it off. Should be dialling 999 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshOWTB Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Sad day for Oldham and England. The MOB rule. Who denied the mob mentality if this is true. What a load of rubbish.

bluehobbit Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) What a farce this has been. Who in their right mind thought this was a good idea and that the backlash wasn't going to happen... and whoever did think this was a good idea in the first place needs to have a long hard look in the mirror. and preferably leave the club The saddest thing out of all of this is that its taken money or the threat of loosing it before we have cancelled the deal. I didn't want the club dragged through the mud which has happened anyway. Farce Edited January 8, 2015 by bluehobbit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayItLivo Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Ah, well. Back to signing the Jon Paul Kissock's and Terry Dunfields of the world. I imagine it being called off is against the wishes of the director's. Their frustation will probably be mirrored by the players of lack thereof that we do sign this month. We've really hit the self destruct button on what seemed to be our brightest season for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc0000 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 The whole board are a bunch moronic idiots... As disgusting as it is... Is anyone actually surprised that threats have been said?? The mob outside of us fans was clearly there to see. It such an emotive issue. The board put themselves, the staff and the fans in the firing line... and for what ? Disgusted at them....

hedge66 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 It's sad if bullies threatening staff and their families have caused a decision , whatever the decision. If you can't see that, I despair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
