mcfluff1985 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Is he :censored: a fan, if he was he'd do what's best for the team and not the OEC. Do you go every home game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcfluff1985 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 What's that got to do with the price of fish? He said Corney isn't a fan or he'd do what was best for the team. So fans should be going every home game and supporting the players because that's what's good for the team. Or they're not fans by Yarddogs logic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latic76 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 For me, the fact that OEC and Brassbank exist suggests the football club and more importantly things on the pitch isn't SC's or the other two's first priority...... Making profit on the land and stand etc, taking that money from the club is......which to me feels like not the dealings of a true fan.......(whether or not any of us fans thinks it's fair game that the owners wanna do that is another conversation). If any of us fans came into life changing money and bought the club, the stand, the land, everything, do you think PR would be non-existent until something stinking has hit the fan!? And why does whether a fan attends a certain amount of matches have anything to do with whether or not he / she believes SC is an oldham fan or not....it's just adding to divide and conquer which seems to be the retorhic for OAFC....shame I wonder what our wage budget would be if the owners of OAFC put everything related to us (land, stand, everything that has a tie to the football club) would be. Surely not as poor as it is now.... Until TTA officially leave we're going to continue in this downward spiral. Unfortunately no one with more than x2 brain cells that isn't an Oldham fan will buy us....Who would buy a football club with no stadium, stand, land, just the name? Who? Crazy!! So annoying!!

yarddog73 Posted January 7, 2017 Author Share Posted January 7, 2017 Mcfluff I've been to more games than you've had hot dinners and seen us play at over 100 different grounds - have you? Watched getting on to a thousand games -have you? Missed one game at home this season and several away but still been to most games, normally wouldn't miss any game but my support is being tested to the limit this season and I'm considering if it's all worthwhile, I appreciate how much my entrance fee is needed and pay for each game I attend, questioning my support shows how :censored:ing stupid you are and just because I see Corney for what he is and voice my disapproval on here it has :censored: all to do with whether i attend or not.

Aarondo Westy Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 (edited) If you go to games then fine. I wasn't sure if it was you said you weren't going this season. No need to call people stupid though for asking a question is there. Oooo angryOh the irony ?! BBC Manchester doing a phone in on Monday. On twitter it's advertised with Crisis at Oldham? It's being discussed on the football phone in show. I imagine you've been in touch already to tell that what a waste of time it is and everything is fine. I am worried very worried the steady decline is looking like this may be the year we go down. I see people saying we don't need to sign players yet as no game for x amount of days. oh so we don't want them to train together then these players we may have coming in has anybody not learnt at the club what happens when you leave it to the last min? Like we did at the summer. We failed to plan properly for this season and as the saying goes fail to plan, plan to fail and we are failing. The facts are this club is in serious decline and serious questions need to be asked. Mr.corney himself clearly states when we signed the sports direct deal that we now attached ourselves to the bigger budgets in the league. Since then we have sold players and managers for decent money and all we hear isn't we have the lowest budget. So why is this? The scoreboard again nearly a year onwards and I appreciate what the trust are saying but seriously people look and think it's been a year wtf is going on where is the bloody thing. It feels as though it's been nothing but disappointment after disappointment recently. I would love it in a year or two your turning round to me saying I told you so because I want what's best for the club as we all do. But seriously guys what's it going to take for action to be taken? What is going to have to happen for people to wake up and actually see the truth of what's going on. The football club despite apprantly having a bigger budget is being run on a shoe string whilst in the chief executive's words the OEC is flourishing. Isn't it funny how the OEC is up and running in the new stand and the two who want sod all to do with OAFC and Mr.corney are taking the profits from that. People say yes they will be paying OAFC rent. Let me ask you this if you had both businesses and the OEC is flourishing and your clearly neglecting the football side of things why would you pay a decent rent and skim off the OEC profits I can't say for certain course I can't but I suspect it will be minimal rental income OAFC gets from the OEC and whatever does come goes towards the building cost. It's just funny how the supporters bar isn't done yet coz I'd presume again I can't say for certain but with that being for the fans the money would go solely to OAFC. I really hope the session that NNN is doing with Corney gets true and honest answers and no that does not mean answers I want to hear it will certainly be interesting. What hurts the most is all the infighting between fans and the lack of any real passion or challenge to change anything. Mcfluff rip this apart feel free on any spelling or whatever am done with the childish debates if you want to debate things let's do it like the adults we should be. Please don't throw out the gonand find a buyer argument either that's not my job and I think the bloke we have now is doing a poor job and could do a better job that's what frustrates me. I genuinely feel he is choosing to neglect us am not saying he should be pumping millions in but I do think it's a choice for us to be run on such a strict budget and that choice is to maximise the OEC at the expense of OAFC.

Absolutely spot on - the fans forum was eye opening to have it confirmed and kind of rubbed in that the OEC is flourishing, and even more eye-opening that not one person on the panel knew anything proper about the Sports Direct promise. I for one, hope all us 'corney-sceptics' get proven wrong for the reasons you said, do I think we will be? very unsure.

DerbyshireLatic Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Well said Westy, doesn't matter about punctuation, grammar or who's been to the most games. What matters is what the :censored: is going on with OUR club. The silence is deafening, we need to see/hear something to give us a glimmer of hope. I'll be at Mansfield but can't carry on blindly supporting this team, short term, without 4 or 5 quality additions we are going down. Long term, what the :censored: is the long term plan? Is there even a long term plan, those of us still going week in, week out are loyal to the club but don't take us for mugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
