LaticMark 464 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) This has been rumbling on since January of this year, although the club announced in March that the "Joe Royle Stand at Boundary Park will be open for the 2020/21 season." Tickets for the Joe Royle Stand were originally put on sale, but then pulled at the beginning of August. We're now waiting for a a "detailed statement by the end of next week." There is clearly an impasse, but who do you hold responsible for the closure of the Joe Royle Stand? Vote Blitz - If you blame Simon Blitz, Danny Gazal, the OEC, or the FLG. Vote Lemsagam - If you blame Abdallah Lemsagam, Mohamed Lemsagam, Barry Owen, or the Club. Edited September 4, 2020 by LaticMark Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GlossopLatic 2,554 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) There are no good guys in this Simon Blitz has played his part in this shit show But AL should have known all about this when he bought the club and should've known that not owning the ground meant cooperating with the landlord whether he liked it or not so I hold him responsible. Knowone is winning in this and with the owner and the landlord at each other throats Oldham Athletic is weakened by it. Edited August 22, 2020 by GlossopLatic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
singe 2,214 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 I don't exempt Blitz from criticism, and he had harmed the club substantially. But re the North Stand it is mainly Lemsagagem and Barry et al. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blitz for asset stripping, and making money from a small community club. AL for mind boggling ignorance. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blitz is the main culprit due to the syphoning of assets and wanting the last shred's of profit possible. Once he's had his last pound of flesh, we will move on. Not until, if ever.

It’s ironic Lags that you constantly tell us you want balance. But then when someone offers an alternative view to your own, you come out with words like ‘dross.’ Doesn’t seem very balanced to me.

You're letting Lemsagam off the hook IMHO. Perhaps I should put my position in simpler terms. Blitz is fucking the club over. Lemsagam is fucking the fans over.

I think you might have to write more pages, because I was told username was not real and Lags had to establish my credibility!

The question is specifically about the JR stand closure. However you perceive the role of Blitz in the closure, to make AL and Shitpeas blameless is beyond ridiculous. How can the opinion of anyone who voted that way have any credibility? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
super_blue 266 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) I have said both as both parties seem to be playing silly games to feather their own nests rather than consider the fans in the whole thing! Although....if I was renting a house and the boiler broke and the roof leaked is it my responsibility to fix it and finance the fix?

Probably not but if you hadn't paid rent for 4 months and prior to that The landlord had to go to court to get previous arrears could you really blame him for not fixIng a thing? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tGWB 376 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 If the stand was shut by the Council because it needed a couple of new safety doors and cctv as it has been suggested, those are quick and relatively inexpensive improvements to make A customer thinking Owner & Board would have sorted those improvements in a couple of week at the most and got the Council to sign off the work so the Stand could be opened No Club update on it No Brassbank update on it No OEC update on it Supporters stuck in the middle still of the very same feuding parties as we have been for like forever No one cares about the fans 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Commercial properties I think, are sometimes full repair leases, where the renter may be liable for all maintenance subject to the signing of a schedule of condition agreement at the onset. I’m sure someone in the property game will put me right if that’s not the case! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
