clifford Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Have clearly stolen a march by giving tickets to amateur clubs in oldham. Could follow that they are growing their fan base. Did not think that you could encroach into another pro club catchment area. Hot on the heels of the signing of Chase Andy Mazy has playeda blinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happyed Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 I appreciate you have the knives out at the moment but also bear in mind that Hornets can’t put a competitive team out in league 1 at the moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe 90 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Its not a short term fix @ Hornets. Current results are not totally relevant to the club strategy. RL needs more people with the vision of Andy Mazey and his very talented board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Championship is a tough gig but its the place to be, let's hope Roughyeds maintain their place and that the board are preparing or life after the Sky money runs out.

FailsworthYed Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 @cliffordI should expand on what I was saying, it seems you're confused. My point is simply, Oldham aren't doing enough to promote rugby within the community. I know times are difficult at the moment but surely offering local children the opportunity to watch the roughyeds for free would be a start?

OL14.yeds Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Rochdale also did their bit in getting the England vs Fiji game at Spotland in October. I bought four tickets for it, and as you need track and trace info for each member of your party, all four of those have ended up on Hornets’ mailing list. Just small things, but Andy Mazey looks like he knows what he’s doing, and despite their current injury woes, the club looks to be going in the right direction. The fact they’re giving away free tickets to Oldham amateur clubs whilst Roughyeds play out of the borough with shrinking gates should get alarm bells ringing.

You’re correct - which is what is on the hornets ticketing website. I was wrong in the original post and have edited for accuracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herbie Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Hats of to Rochdale they are doing some great stuff at the moment building the club. Womens team Wheelchair team Links with Hopwood Hall Links with their community Playing in a staduium in their home town Our club? Built on sand. Its Tragic Also remember not too long ago Rochdale had a change in ownership. Pretty sure people were saying if the then owners walked their would be no club.

Pretty sure people were saying if the then owners walked their would be no club. I might be wrong, and stand to be corrected, but weren't the previous owners a committee led by fans, rather than "owners" as such? I seem to remember there being a call for us to go down that route, that this is the way forward! The number one question is who's got the readies? Remember, not so long ago, York were in trouble, ground problems and an owner who had lost the respect of the fans. Now look at them. Newcastle, owner with cash. Rochdale, same. Where are we going to get someone willing to put in the money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roughly 700 paying, I hear, and a very understanding local authority. What is the Covid capacity of Bower Fold?
