If its a man that releases statements Goebbels would be proud of then I would question their legitimacy Goebbels ? Back down on this one, it's wrong.

I agree but that's providing they are genuine fans of the club and not money grabbers.Their anonymity so far doesn't convince me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kowenicki Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 The FG have said (I think) that they will need some backers to help with funds.... is it possible the FG and the FG’s recently appointed employees are actually the very same people? I fucking hope not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tGWB Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Baffling this !! If the Club / AL doesnt own the NorthStand/JimmyFrizzellStand why would we want to put fans in it if it wasnt financially beneficial to our Club The FLG dont own any part of the ground and have simply taken over the day to day running of the OEC (Oldham Event Centre).

League one forever Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 So, so predictable. He didn’t have an issue with the OEC when he bought the club, he didn’t raise its ownership in his first two years in charge. A fans group appear, and suddenly it’s an issue and this group are holding the club to ransom. . . This isn’t all about money, it’s more about his ego. Blitz was happy to stay in the background, collect his money and let AL make all decisions. The fans group want a lot more involvement. He feels sidelined and threatened, so starts to divide people. From the official- ‘Those fans choosing to use the hospitality in OEC do so to the detriment of the club.’ Or, ‘If you go and see what they’ve got planned and pay a fiver, your not for me.’ #themandus This is just the start of a long, long battle. Can’t wait. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or have I missed something How i see it is we as fans will have a choice you either pay to do the hospitality in OEC with their profits going to pay blitz and co their rent and any other profits being split between the FG or you can sit in the RE or mainstand and contribute to the wages of the players and the running of OAFC... As much as i cant stand AL and the way he works we need to ensure that the money generated on match days are for the club, the FG will attempt to suffocate AL to force him out but my worry will be what will happen if the FG between them don’t have the funds to carry on with the day to day running of the club and we may then become a club owned by the fans but we could be finacially worse off than ever before..

However seeing as I don’t know really know anything yet, I’m prepared to give them the benefit of the doubt.
