piglinbland Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 I'm surprised there are 1200 season tickets left - if this site is to be believed most have been rescinded, torn up or burnt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnthonyOAFC Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) Sounds too good to be true. Because we're Oldham Athletic, I've got an image in my head of something going wrong with the new stand today. Glad we're nearly there though. Fab.

underdog Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) Been there this morning for three hours cleaning up with directors of the club, trust directors and as many staff as were possible. All seats, turn styles, toilets cleaned, floors swept, posters up in windows. Catering was being sorted to whilst we there...and dare I say I had a bacon butty and a cup of tea too..ssshhh... It's the basics at the moment but in my mind it's a great start. The named bricks are looking good on the outside of the stadium too Think I'm too knackered to attend the match now I need a kip Edited October 17, 2015 by underdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafcforever Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 According to Chief executive we have sold 1400 season tickets for new stand, so only 200 probably won't get in may even be a case of 200 or so not being here?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
