You could be right. I don't recall it but it should/would have been in the meeting notes. And if it was it can't have been that productive. I have just re-read it. MOU is a minimum of 3 from each party. Parties being OAFC and OASF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to have a supporter liaison officer, is this still the case? 3 hours ago, underdog said: I have no idea TBH. The last liaison person I knew was Mark Lund But it would take much would it. A Iick of paint/art/muriels by Oldham College to brighten the place. I remember someone saying those pop up flags like a legend walkway. Look at getting a fanzone sorted on carpark somewhere where local business can pull up and ply their trade. Pies, pints, pin badges... Pre match entertainment. Did they not have a local dance troupe at one stage? Half time stuff like OACT do. Lots of stuff. Stuff fans could have helped with if the engagement was there.

Adam Street is the ticket office manager. He's not going to be an impartial liaison over anything to do with ticketing issues. The disability liaison officer is the safeguarding & supporter services manager, Pamela Makin, again she is not going to be an impartial liaison over a lot of issues connected to disability. In fairness to Abdallah, under Corney, the SLO was Jenny Warburton, the club's lead commercial person. She wasn't impartial either. The guidance over the SLO is for them NOT to be a club employee, because that person can't be impartial, but under successive owners that guidance has been ignored. If the FA / EFL / National League cared about the SLO role at clubs they'd mandate that guidance to force the club (and we won't be the only club using a club employee as the SLO) to use someone who isn't a club employee. But if they did that the club would probably appoint someone like Michael Halliwell or Stephen Partington to the post ignoring any other vastly more independent and more qualified candidates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Mark was a volunteer SLO. He was also an OASF director too. Had to retire from both due to ill health. He would always brief OASF board on national SLO stuff and incidents like at Tranmere etc. Edited June 22, 2022 by underdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same way an estate agent is, you look at the market. It's just a guess on what is happening at the time. Don't forget they had forensic accountants employed to look at the mess and when you take all that into consideration you come up with a number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
