Oldham82 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Just hope gets sorted soon, we would all love one group or person to buy us and plough in millions but we need the club at heart to build us back up get the fans back and get oldham in peoples hearts like the very late 80s early 90s.

bigfatjoe1 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 We're far too small for him. He's more likely to pick the bones off the likes of Derby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerrywasagenius Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Darren Royle has been trying to talk to the owners since they left Wigan. My only hope is that Barry isn't involved in any of them or I for one still won't be returning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 What did Ashley actually do wrong at Newcastle? It seems the grievances of their fans were no more than a tacky-sounding stadium sponsorship and a couple of poor managerial appointments - cry me a river! They’d do well to remember the mountains of debt he cleared in the first few months of his ownership… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their fanbase is arguably even more deluded than ours though so who knows... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again I can't imagine why anyone looking at a financial return would want to invest in a football club like ours anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know where the £6 million has come from, it's nonesense. I know 2 separate parties who have had discussions this week and it's nowhere near £6 million and there is a number of options open to them. Blitz on the other hand??
