The sheer negativity and cynicism of some people on this site beggars belief. Who’s not giving him a chance....? I wish him the very best and want him to make our football club as successful as it’s potential offers..... and why does asking perfectly reasonable questions constitute negativity....?

The guy looks genuine, pleased to be here and focus on football as in Wellens in charge. What wrong with people. Most probably not Latics fans or people [jealous fans of other teams?] pretending to be Latics fans. I am sure Lemsagam has experience of social media and skin thick enough to ignore the trolls on Twatter...or any other platform that allows the average knuckle-dragger to espouse their opinion.

Andy b Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Can't see any positives in having corney around. Don't suscribe to the 'he kept us afloat' bollox. He has killed this club and I want rid. Lie after lie. Whether the new owner has the means or desire to make his club great or whether we are just a vehicle for something else, or indeed whether the two are not mutually exclusive, will be proven over time. Hopefully he is a step in the right direction. time for the trust to make their mark now. Step up, get a foot in the door and engage positively with the new owner whilst the ship is steady and everyone is in a positive frame of mind. We simply have to have more effective fan-club engagement and better relationship with the owners going forward. Now is the time to build some bridges.

mickjagger Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Clarification would be good in terms of how much it costs to rent on match days & how much profit we actually make per match for doing so etc etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy solution is don't use it or support it, cheeky bastards sold player after player to help fund it and it was miss sold from day one, same with the new LED signage company set up partly with fans money, pants down time after time with lie after lie.

mickjagger Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Supporters could make an informed decision whether to continue using the stand if the profit generated would be greater from a stand we fully own?

singe Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I was wondering, with his experience and being a Director whether it might have been a stipulation of EFL approval to have Simon Corney on for a period of time. He'll clearly have experience of all the paperwork etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underdog Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I am little merry so apologies...hic..here's is the trust statement.... Trust Oldham are excited to welcome Abdallah Lemsagam as the new owner of Oldham Athletic. This is a new era and a new start for everyone. We have been impressed with Mr Lemsagam’s commitment to the club and his plans that are ambitious, yet with a healthy dose of realism. We would like to extend our thanks to both parties for their work throughout the takeover process. We acknowledge the part Mr Corney has played in the club’s history. We would also like to thank the EFL for the work they have done, they have been extremely thorough and professional throughout. This is also an opportunity to thank our representative, Simon Brooke, who has ensured the Trust have remained a part of the takeover process and the future of the club. We can confirm that the Trust position remains as it always has, with a 3% shareholding and seat on the board. Mr Lemsagam has shown a commitment through the takeover talks to the club in time and finances. In our meetings with him he has made it clear the he wants to work closely with the Trust and create an inclusive and positive culture. The fans and general public of Oldham should see this as a new start. Though none of us can know what the future holds, we can work together to create an atmosphere of positivity and improvement. We look forward to working with Mr Lemsagam over the next few years. A new era has begun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No no no & no again people believed the club owned the stand & profit generated 365 days a year would go back into the club until the goal posts were dramatically moved.
