Oldham

Got family in Oldham (in laws) and they’re match going Oldham fans but they’re absolutely killed by the clubs on their doorstep, Hard to convince youth to go and watch Oldham with United and City on your doorstep. Got a cracking away support, easily take over a thousand to games down south.

Been coming for a while this though, her cousins reckon even FC United and Salford have cost them fans
It’s terrible mate
This great game .

that we invented .

that we sent around the globe .

we are now f***ing up on our own doorstep . We are ignoring it’s roots in the clamour for money

Been a basket case for years

Aye mate, average 3000 at home and average 800 away, crazy stat but true

Heartbreaking for any club.
We are going up early and meeting an old mate before drinking with some Oldham fans in one of their pubs. Looking forward to it.
Met a few decent Oldham fans at Swindon this season.

Spot on. My eldest is now starting to understand it’s not just the 90 minutes, it’s the package, the history, the travel the lot.
He realises how lucky he is as he gets to talk to players and knows our Captains Dad really well. We always have a chat in the car coming home after away games. It’s not the norm however this is different to his Man Utd Supporting Mates that have never been to OT.
He has taken a couple of his mates now and they loved it and want to come back.
That’s the plan get more enrolled to Hell :)
How old are your kids mate?

Bet they still brought a good few
 
They do get something, the money filters down with those at the top receiving the most.
You might not like it but that’s reality I’m afraid.

Lot’s of things I dislike about the money not filtering down or the support that grass roots football get.
Take the Idea of cup replays being removed, yet another revenue stream removed inflicted by those at the top.
Reality no not really just greed.
