Protest all you like, it won't change anything. The owner will go when he gets an offer to buy or he decides to hand the keys in. And who the fuck wants to buy a club in our state.

oafc1955 Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Totally disagree...a proper protest campaign might just persuade Al to throw the keys in or put the club up for sale a little quicker! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might not work but like I said it's the best way to channel supporter dissatisfaction and keep the 3 main groups of fans happy. - Supporters who don't want to give the club money won't be doing so. - Supporters who want to watch the team can do so. - Those who want a protest of some sort can have one. Put forward a better solution then bro the floor is yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought our illustrious commentators said we were on the brink during the Exeter game. That's shocking and obviously a sad reflection of where we're at. Worst every home record! Sums it all up.

There aren't 5-6 thousand fans out there just waiting for things to get better, they've gone, never to return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked my matches up until Covid but won’t return again until they are gone. Once they’ve gone I will consider coming back just like many other fans will however I cannot contribute to this shit show any longer. If you are happy, fair play, that’s up to you!

Show potential owners there is something worth investing in. Staying away and shouting and crying that you deserve better achieves nothing. And 2000 will always turn up regardless.

If you think an owner wants in on a club with 2000 coming through the gate then fine. We've attracted one new owner in 20 years. Ask yourself why.

We're not a Blackpool, we're not a Coventry, we're not a Bury. How the club is run? I guess it's not beyond the understanding that an Oldham Athletic 'fan' (although they have absolutely no right to be shown, or to have a steer on the internal workings of OAFC) might be just a little upset seeing their club being slowly managed into the ground by incompetence. Fans are emotionally invested if nothing else, in football that means an awful lot. I don't know, are fans happy with the situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
