yarddog73 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 This fucking pub team are ahead of us in the table and some see it as progress. Laughable situation really and they should be docked ten points for next season and threatened with being removed from the league if they can't fulfill fixtures. It still could prove to be a crucial game and really should of been yet we may see a situation where 1800+ Latics fans miss out at nothing other than incompetence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stargazer Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 'Pub team' , they may be . that only sheds a negative light on our players and management and their pathetic , abysmal efforts in the last 2 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diggleblue Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Halifax had to postpone our match in order to preserve the pitch for their next rugby match.Their club is a joke and points should be given to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is just one of those things, let the clubs find a solution, just giving us the points is in nobodies best interests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Heard a rumour if Halifax qualify for the play offs they won't be allowed to compete. Whoever they would play would get a bye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That must be bollocks, if they finish in the play off places you can't just pull the rug from under them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeP Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) I wish we could do this for every game. The jeopardy of when and where the games are going to be played make things a hell of a lot more exciting. Maybe we could even introduce no one knowing who they're going to play! There's mileage in this... .. literally and metaphorically.

Dickie Down Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 The club should be representing their supporters publicly on this. They have getting towards 2000 people who need to make arrangements for tomorrow night and are completely in the dark. Say it's at Harrogate. That's at least an hour each way further. There will be many who can't do that for a variety of reasons. It may be happening in private, but it would be very good policy to represent the supporters in public pretty quickly.

I would think a lot of people have booked a train to Halifax. So are they going to put on buses from Halifax station to wherever it's being played?

LightDN123 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 This can’t be put on OAFC. Halifax however… I have zero knowledge on pitch recovery times, but even an idiot can see this game was never being played at Halifax. Two days ago… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradKnowles1 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 This is a complete shambles. 6pm the day before and we don’t know if it’s going to be played. Seems like there has been disagreement with certain areas of Yorkshire not wanting to host us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All clubs rely on the loyalty of supporters and most don't see them as customers who may not return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the league can't decide on how many points they should be deducted. Edited April 9 by diggleblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsslatic Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 I hope the club are deliberately playing hardball. Play it next Thuesday and force Halifax into playing 4 games in 7 days. However slim our chances are we have to look after ourselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha, it said it had been posted 51 seconds earlier on their webpage, so I thought I had a scoop.
