Snowys Backside Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 The sooner Oldham get back playing in Oldham, the better. Is it next season at BP ? Too big of a club and too much History for them to be where they are. More than capable to get to SL with the right direction and clout. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re back in Oldham now (Avro FC) where they played previously in that division. It was only in the Championship that they played at Stalybridge.

There's always quite a few getting on and off trains at Hull Interchange. Of course it's only a 10 minute walk from there to the MKM so it makes sense to take the train if you're travelling to games from outside the city.

It's over three months away so I don't see why they couldn't get there. 3 I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

Maybe although would have thought 25 August was the worst possible time to target schools, they will all have been shut for a month.

sweaty craiq Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 More than 5 weeks before our game in Perpignan and after only being on sale a few days Leigh have only 70 tickets left from the usual 3 blocks allocated to away fans - hope we get some more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too big of a club and too much History for them to be where they are. More than capable to get to SL with the right direction and clout. Yes. Back to BP next season. The new board, led by Mike Ford, are really trying to re-engage with supporters. First they re-introduced concession charges, the Dewsbury game is free entry and next week there's an evening with the fans with an open forum where supporters can ask the board and coaching staff any questions they like. There's a real buzz about the town and no wonder the Dewsbury game was a sell-out almost a week beforehand. If the game had been at BP, who knows what the crowd could have been. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always had a soft spot for Oldham. Used to love the games v Leigh and a Stongly supported Oldham beats any new side from Timbuktu being fastracked to sell sky dishes ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely ambitious would be trying to get that big crowd without massively discounting the tickets? Huddersfield have been trying this cheap ticket thing for years. It's not working. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh I have no idea what the ticket prices are. I don't disagree with your second para.
