The statement talks around the issue without giving clear reasons. Still we are kept in the dark which is laughable when the club claims to be transparent around this. Might be to do with who is in control on matchday. I wouldn't have thought the incident against Salford has helped much. Weren't people drinking in view of the pitch when the game re-started which i'm sure is illegal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t there but can’t remember seeing any drinks in the video on social media, I could be wrong though. But didn’t the club announce that the game had been abandoned anyway only to resume it without letting anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So to control the situation some bellend (no surprises who) thought the best course of action would be to block off all the fire escapes.... which is illegal and more pertinently putting lives at risk. If you are going to come on here as Shitpeas bitch at least come up with some plausible arguments as to why the club are behaving like absolute cunts throughout this.

PeteG Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I'm led to believe that the club asked the OEC to close the bar as the referee was insisting before restarting but how true that is I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was stood by the firedoor, with a pint when the players came back out. At that point, the game had been abandoned and it had been clearly stated that it wouldn't restart. The management of the OEC were quite clear with the people in the vicinity that if the game did restart they would not be able to remain there with booze. Nobody argued with that. The next thing, the stewards arrived to block the view, first by standing in front of the doors then by using the hording. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At other clubs where there are areas that have windows onto the pitch they have blinds that come down when the game is on, or some other method of obscuring the view of the pitch during the game. At best the ref would have asked that took place, as opposed to shutting the premises. My guess would be BO asked the referee to force them to close it and the ref told him where to go. Shame you aren't able to be 100% on this one like you were on how the club spends unbudgeted for ticket revenue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamHughes Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Just got home from my local basketball teams playoff match here in France. Take my 6 year old to the games and what a difference when as a fan your support is appreciated.Sold out arena as usual and as we entered everybody was given a commerative playoff tshirt.Season pass holders are given a club shirt when they buy their passes and are also given a €25 voucher on their birthday.I started going to Latics at the age my eldest son is now but it’s heartbreaking seeing what’s happening and how so little regard the owners have for its loyal fan base.Tonight reinforced my feelings big time.

wroteforluck87 Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 I think we all knew that that one stand would be close in the NPL it's not uncommon for former league league clubs to have a stand shut and with the on going fued between AL and Blitz it was only ever going to be the north stand that was going to be shut.. I can't wait for the day when all this off the field mess is sorted and we can just look forward to going watching latics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
