Oldham Match

[sheddingswasus]

Out of interest what are Batleys crowds like this year? We are coming over Sunday and are disappointed to see NO concession prices and you charge for kids.

Poor, been like that for last season as well.

[sheddingswasus]

Perhaps they need to look at the next generation and let kids in free?

We did in previous seasons but there wasn't a great upswing of junior support !!

We paid £20 at Batley and its worth every penny,what can you get for 20 quid these days at most events? Got this argument at Fev and it's only £15 for over 65's. How do supporters think the club can have a decent team without paying for it?

Going to need us more then ever now.

Oldham fans will be out in force as usual this week. Along with Bradford and Fev they travel well. Sadly a lot of the others, including York don’t.

I’ve heard you won’t be bringing more than around 300, what happened to the other 1100 you used to bring? 
 

York travelled well to us early in the season

Where did you get that from. Average we take to matches is around 500-600. Sunday won’t be any different.

Haha, atleast a few of those travelling from Owdham will be parents of current Batley players!

Parsons I hope 

[RogerT]

Hi there yes I took to him straight away, his mum and dad are great as well.

[phildog]

Technically correct Bromley I suppose, as in 1 newest but I stand correct. Agree with your other sentiment, play him or lose him AND Parsons and Dean etc.

If we lose him is he a big loss? Who above us would actually take him?
