Feel sorry for people who don't look at social media and message boards etc. There's going to be so many turned away As a fairly computer literate bloke, I have no problem keeping up with the latest Latics news. I would imagine that the few who don’t use social media would at least get the Oldham Times for their updates? Can anyone tell me if the paper is a free one and delivered to homes in the oldham area - if so what day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlossopLatic Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Tbh they are better off moving both ticket sales and the merchandise side of the club online or taking sales over the phone. the only time the ticket office or the club shop should be open is on match days its far more efficient for them to do it that way. Onto Bradford they are a curious side as they continue to underachieve compared to the size of their support Derek Adams should have been a good fit too to get out of this league but alas they continue to toil. Any Bradford fan reading that might think it's abit pot calling the kettle black an Oldham fan accusing Bradford of underachieving, but our problems are alot more obvious Bradford are much more geared towards a promotion push than we are its harder to understand really.

oafc1955 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 I reckon the all ticket ruling combined with the weather forecast will knock about 25% off the attendance we could normally have expected. Don’t think it will match the crowd against Rochdale by some distance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think it will match the crowd against Rochdale by some distance! According to the Bradford official website we have given them 2,500 (*) tickets for the game this weekend - of which they have currently sold 1,500. *coincidentally they took just over 2.5k to Rochdale recently As of yesterday, Latics have sold 1,500 tickets in addition to the season ticket holders (2,800 ish I believe). If Bradford announce a new manager Thursday /Friday then they may sell their allocation. We should hopefully shift another 500 or so which would mean an attendance of any number between 6,500 and 7,300. Against Rochdale at home we had a crowd of 8,199 with 2,014 away fans.
