A damning indictment as you are likely to see from one of the good guys.. Cheers for the honesty Billy, Finally a former staff member who has the balls to say what’s happening and exactly what he thinks! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bozman Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Billy 's comments carry more weight by virtue of the fact that he jumped ( after being widely praised for his work), rather than being pushed. So they can't use the "sacked employee with an axe to grind" argument to discredit him. Well done for speaking out! 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a disaster as his presence today might have salvaged something from the trainwreck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Nice of him to out Barry Owen as a cunt as well, not that we didn't know already - just waiting for Whittles to log on and accuse him of not being a fan. If what Billy posted doesn't persuade you to take a stand against these fuckwits then nothing will, I will continue (as much as it pains me) to boycott BP, one day I know I can walk back into the place with a clear conscious knowing I did my bit to get rid of the scum killing our club, this man isn't for changing and I will not part with another penny whilst this regime is at the helm, I was ridiculed for having the temerity to suggest we smoke these fuckers out and at the time it probably did seem a very militant approach but that is what is required here, poisonous is probably the best way to describe it and the club is dying a slow death, we need change and quickly. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolatic Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) Well said, Billy. You gained so much respect on here for the way you dealt with every situation. You were a real credit to OAFC and yourself, so for you to come out with this says all there is to know about the toxic regime that runs from the top of the club we all love. It breaks my heart to see what these charlatans and dim wits (I'm trying to be polite) have done to the love I have for Latics. The sooner they sod off, the better for everyone. I never thought I'd ever say this, but if we got relegated (and I don't believe we will), but with a new and genuine owner at the helm, I could just about stomach that. Anything is better than seeing the club being slowly but surely having the life strangled out of it.

I am surprised that with all the bits of information put into the public domain that you ae still looking for more substance and detail.Wake up and see what is happening to your club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m awake and not looking for more substance...I was just asking as I have seen cryptic tweets from those above etc but the details Billy listed have been few and far between. I believe everything Billy has said and the place is on its arse. I want more to step up like him and bring the clowns down! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just of the top of my head. Billy has said more than any of these in my Opinion. A lot of leading tweets and statements without specifics from most. I’m not defending AL or the clowns running the club as it is I just admire Billy for coming out with specifics and wish more would that’s all.

I’m not defending AL or the clowns running the club as it is I just admire Billy for coming out with specifics and wish more would that’s all. If you read it, Billy hasn't said a huge amount. Nothing new or that we didn't know already, he's just reaffirming what we know. (And I for one am very grateful, and appreciate the brave step) He's just done it in consecutive tweets. But as Bozman said, he walked so carries more weight. People have been saying the same and RT'd just as much. ML poor Sporting Director. Check Players not good enough. Check AL, ML & BO are not pleasant people to work with. Check The Terrible Trio don't care about the the club/fans. Check Loads more to day, but don't want legal trouble/banned. Check Here it is. It says it all about the ignorance and sheer inexperience that ML has when it comes to English football that as our Sporting Director he genuinely thinks that these sub standard (that’s being kind) players he’s signed are good enough to cut it in this league. #oafc Maouche, Sylla, Fage, Branger, De La Paz, Desire, Missilou etc might be flashy on the training pitch and have shown something in parts but none of them anywhere near good enough or consistent enough for League Two. Don’t get me started on the pointless signings of Kokos... #oafc Gonzales, Dolan, Smith Brown, Zabret, Adams, Sefil, Vera etc. The recruitment has been that bad that Dino has had to sign 30+ year old free agents, and says it all about how bad the squad is that one of them is our best player who will 100% leave us this month. #oafc If I’d been as poor in my job as Ticket Office Manager as ML has been as SD, we all know what would have happened. Simply being related to the owner shouldn’t allow him to continue in the position he’s in where he has so much influence & clearly has no idea what he’s doing. #oafc I get the family loyalty AL feels towards his brother & why he wants to keep him around, but ML should be moved into a figurehead role of chief scout or something. He should have no influence regarding the first team nor anything to do with the day to day running of #oafc. Say what you want about Frankie Bunn as a manager but the players we signed under him thanks to his contacts in the game were far better than what we have this season. Obviously he got some signings wrong but he had one transfer window. ML has had numerous... #oafc Not one of his signings has been successful, and they’ve had more than enough time. I’m willing to give Dino more time because he’s inherited these players and he’s not yet been able to bring his own players in... but we’ll see. #oafc Every Latics fan should support @pushtheboundary. AL, ML & BO are awful, inexperienced, unintelligent, harsh and unkind people. In my experience those kind of people are only gonna take us down... which is exactly what they are doing. Time for ALL fans to come together... #oafc And do something about it. The disdain the hierarchy feel towards the lifeblood of the club is revolting, and deserves more action. I genuinely think the only thing that will make them listen is by all fans seriously boycotting games until real change happens. #oafc Rant over. Could come back to bite my in the arse but it’s the club I’ve supported for years and I can’t just not say my piece. Loads more I wanted to say but I’d definitely get in some kind of legal trouble. I won’t be going to another game whilst they’re in charge and #oafc I was given a free Season Ticket as a parting “gift”. Don’t care if they cancel it and I don’t care if they ban me from the ground like they have others, I won’t step one foot in that place whilst those charlatans are there because it’s not the club I support anymore. #oafc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just interested. Won’t think any less of you (unless you’re a red ) Hope you are enjoying your new job btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
