Looks like Gareth widdop will be playing against us, that's some signing for them, but they've not met the mighty owdam yet

[bentleyman]

1st silly question hoping to visit Boundary Park on the 28th is there a Train from Manchester or is the Tram how far is the Ground from the Town Centre ?

 

[Bert Street]

No trains to speak of. Tram to Westwood and a twenty minute walk to the ground.

 

[shrewsbury roughyed]

Just follow the crowds...

Or train to Mills Hill and 5 minute taxi to BP.

New ticket system this year curated by yours truly.  

There's not been a full on announcement about it because I wanted to watch the first few orders slide though.

Anyway, fill your boots.

Bentleyman is from Yorkshire, taxis aren't an option!

[saints10coach]

If you can get to Huddersfield, it is £2 on the 184 Bus to Oldham town centre. It is then a 35 min walk to the ground. That may suit the Yorkshireman in you.

[jroyales]

Bentleyman,  you could even save £4 i.e. there and back and walk with your money jingling in your pocket.

[tandle]

if any halifax  fans are traveling to boundary park for the match it will be sunday bus and train times.

by bus the 587 from halifax to rochdale bus station.

then catch the 409 royton oldham ashton bus.

then get off at the oldham royal hospital walk back to the zebra.

 cross it and there is sheepfoot lane the ground is at the bottom of it.

going back,walk back up  sheepfoot lane to  the top turn right to the bus stops.

and get the 409 back to the rochdale bus station

make sure you know tte rochdale to halifax bus times

Yes absolutley

Where is the nearest free parking to the ground please? Also, are there any decent (real ale) pubs nearby? I know The Fox and Pine in the centre, but the days of a pub crawl through Denshaw are sadly in the past. ️

[clifford]

The only pub is the white heart but I don't know if that's still open.

The rifle range is a no for real ale, but it looks like fox and pine and Ashton Arms and maybe weatherspoons

Cheers. It's not the best place for real ale isn't Oldham. Is the bar in't Market still going? I am aware that wouldn't be open on Sunday.

If you’re into chicken shops though, boy, you’re in for a treat.

The one in the market is still open, but don't know for how long as the market is closing down and being moved into spindles, but as ol14.yeds says, if want spicy or crispy chicken you won't go wrong as there's hundreds of them in Oldham now

Aye, pretty much the same everywhere nowadays. I wonder how they all make a profit.

[Bert Street]

The Ashton Arms is excellent for both food and beer. Well priced too.

[ManchesterYed]

Back on here now the real stuff starts.

Oldham by 30, can’t see Halifax troubling us.

With our spend and squad only Wakefield Toulouse and Fev outside of super league should be beating us. If we don’t qualify to the quarters finals it’s a disaster with our squad and only league 1 games for the rest of the season with challenge cup unrealistic at this stage but I think we should be looking it win the 1895.
