No nobody small like that, it's one of the extra oasis giggs because they've sold out everywhere else

Something ground and Latics related would be my punt.

Frank on his hols currently. Some sort of joint announcement on his return?

That might be a possibility in addition to developing Little Wembley as a second ground?

Not sure Latics would go for that.

Sad to hear Bill was gutted at the attendance from Sunday. Fingers crossed he is happier come next Sunday. Town needs to keep that man happy

To be frank, buying into BP, whether 50% or lower, is the only big thing since Watersheddings that I can think of! 

Edit, just seen winedrinkerme's comment re building a stadium. Melrose ?

Hopefully we get a few more bums on seats the rugby and match day experience is top draw..

I do think Latics would be up for some extra capital.

Have we (Bill) got a few million going spare to do either of these? I certainly hope so.

They've not long since acquired it.. 

Roughyeds will be tennants for a long while I'd imagine

Let's get Boundary Park rocking on Sunday in anticipation of the pending news next week.   Can we all try and convince a friend, family member, neighbour to come along and put a smile on the chairman's face. He truly deserves a massive thank you from all of us

[Springhead Yed]

I'm planning on making Sunday with my son again. For those of you who are more in the Oldham rugby community than I am, do you know many league fans who haven't come back yet? I think it's these lapsed fans the club is most likely to attract than people like me who are completely new to the sport. 

 

As for the announcement, I've got no idea.latics have been talking about a big development for a while now but it's been getting knocked back more and more.

"Summer " rugby starting in January has not helped.

Unfortunately soccer is still alive then and cost has to be considered.
