Guest 7heaven Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 For our fans down south have OASIS, which is excellent for them and I think we should have more groups like this, where there are quite a few latics in areas of a decent distance away from Boundary Park. Maybe there is a coach where Latics fans come down from up here to get to BP, please let me know.And if there isn't we should do something about it. So how many Latics are up here? cheers.

OASIS is a worldwide phenomenon, not just a Southern thing. There are quite a few up in the NE/Scotland though, no doubt they'll make themselves known. All Exiles can play for the OASIS time on the 25th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's this about the OASIS team on the 25th? I would be happy to play mind, please can you tell me more about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 7heaven Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I'm interested to know about groups of Latics fans in the north east, of how they get to the matches. Is there a mini-bus/ coach to home and/or away games for us up here, as other Latics in other areas do? Please let me know more about this. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're giving the local boys a good shoeing on the Clayton before the Bristol Rovers game. 1PM, 25 mins each way, shower, beer, into the match. We have a full team but more would be good, at least a full half for everyone. If you can catch that would be especially good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long story my friend - literally, it is! take a look OWTB Vs OASIS Basically, OWTB (Greater Manchester OWTB Members) are playing OASIS (OWTB members from anywhere else!) in a footie match before the Brizzle Rovers game.... if you can make it it would be great to have you along...! P.S - have you actually kicked a ball in anger in the last 5 years??? If so we defo need you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are quite a few of us up here. I live in Darlington; OldhamSheridan in Durham; Budapest_Blue and Geordie_Blue in Newcastle; Jorvik_Latic in York and c_ogden_99 in Osmotherley. There are a few others as well but that's all I can remember at the moment off the top of my head. We did think about starting something up with our Scottish Supporters (Oldham InSANE) but as LL has pointed out, OASIS is for every exile wherever they may reside. I've got a Season Ticket and also go to most away matches so if you ever need a lift, then let me know. I'm going on the train to Carlisle though.

All Exiles can play for the OASIS time on the 25th It's one thing for all non-Oldhamers to be playing for the Exiles against the Oldhamers, but it's going a bit far to say OASIS (Oldham Athletic Suppporters In The South) is not just a Southern thing! It would have to change its name for that to be the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Initally the body of it was formed from supporters living in the south but now as spread its wings country wide. It celebtrates 21 years this year!

There seems to be a good few of us up here then, why don't we do something about joining Oldham InSANE? Or make our own, as i don't live to far away from darlington, and we could pick others up on the way, if it started at newcastle and then worked down from there.

It may be worthwhile bumping it up for all the new members? Yeah, I had a search for it yesterday too. There's also Switters to add to the NE, well he puts down Middlesbrough and Newcastle as where he is. I'm not sure whether that means he's in Sunderland/Hartlepool or what though? I think the biggest problem is that we all have our own routines (drop in and see the parents, etc) that match days haven't seemed to take off. Away games seem a plan, but again many stop overnight at friends/relatives. Might be worth broaching the subject before each game to see who's doing what though?

Ye, we could, i live in stockton-on-tees, and would be coming down with 1 or 2 others.If we were to get a mini-bus it would be well cheaper than trains, for example, Burnley in the cup will cost about 35 quid on the train.On a mini-bus we'd probably be paying about 15 quid each.

Inspiral_Carpet Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 I'm a bit busy at the moment with my lads stopping but when I get chance, I'll look at setting something up. I'm travelling up to Carlisle with Markoasis and I know he is looking to formalise things in the North East/ Scotland with regard to a Supporter's Club type thingy. Would be good if we can get something proper arranged but as OS says, away matches woud probably be better because of the relative visiting etc back in Oldham. I'll try again to find the thread with people's locations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldhamSheridan Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 ...and with regards Carlisle, if anyone wants a lift from J62* of the A1(M), I'll be off from there at approximately midday. So long as you whallop it on here today I'll be able to check and make arrangements. *There is free 'parking' just off J62 so that wouldn't cost anything.

rudemedic Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 As a new member who is a resident of Durham i'd thought i'd better add my name to this list. Shared transport, especially for the away games, seems like a good idea even if its a case of meeting up for a particular train. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldhamSheridan lives near Durham (Pittington I think) and we occasionally meet up at Newton Aycliffe McDonald's (just off Junction 59 of the A1) and car share from there. Maybe we could get something sorted for the Walsall game and maybe Cheltenham for one further afield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldhamSheridan Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 (edited) By Golly, the team may as well quit Boundary Park and move to Ferens Park such is the swell of North East fans... I reckon the next trip for me will be Walsall, so am up for car-share as per norm to help keep the funds up. I may even stick a bet on Walsall to win 3-0.
