Breaking News OLDHAM game now ALL TICKET. No pay on the day - sales finish midnight Friday online

[Tommy2holes]

The Oldham attendance can literally go either way.

Ground doesn't pass safety and it's literally a crowd of 0

Ron in charge and I can see a sub 4k gate.

New owners in place 9k+

With 10 days to go it's still so up in the air.

No need for me to predict at the moment, as you've summed it up in a 'nutshell'.

Would help if tickets were on sale

I think no matter who the owner is we all need to be there, Kev and co haven’t left so why should we turn our back on them they could’ve easily walked so why should we. this team needs us now more than ever. Support the team not the regime. Utb

 

[londonblue]

I doubt I'll be there. I'd rather watch my son play cricket. He's said he wants to make himself unavailable for his match so we can watch Southend, but I'd rather he played and I watched.

 

[Hadleigh-shrimper]

I’ll be there either way

This is the worst period in the club’s history now more than ever the team & the 3 amigos need our support the first games may not be winning ones but all supporters need to get behind our team and I’m sure the one piece of news we all want is not to far away,

I will be there, for exactly the same reason I renewed our season tickets in the early bird window and turned up at Canvey on Tuesday. I want to support Kev, the backroom staff, our remaining players, our youngsters and the unwaveringly faithful and resilient back office teams who have all been most affected by all this bull****

 

[Tinks]

If we don’t get the safety certificate issued there won’t be the Match against Oldham at home so fingers crossed.

there is always the possibility that due to the stadium not being ready we could reverse the game - not ideal I know but it would mean we would be able to fulfil the game and thus keeping the NL happy

 

[TheSouthendUnitedRunner]

My wife’s birthday on the 5th August, and for some reason she doesn’t fancy Southend vs Oldham for a birthday treat.

 

[Suffolk Blue]

I'll be there. I'm sorry I can't understand people who won't be. Surely our basic position is to support Soutned United FC. Regardless of who owns SUFC Ltd. The team, the 3 Amigos, and not least, the loyal staff deserve a show of support from us.

 

[Dutch Branch]

@Tinks idea of a reverse fixture is a good one but I’d say Oldham would need 10 days notice at least. Also if we do have enough seats to sit on, we must turn out in numbers, it’s going to be hard enough for the boys as it is.

It’s very quiet on here at the moment the anti Ron boycott roots hall brigade must still be snoring away in their beds

 

[Target man]

I honestly can see the game being called off just before due to "injured" (not enough) players. Would not surprise me at all ....

 

[CMRandall92]

My money would currently be on this.

Although don't expect the game would be able to take place either. If we fail to hold a safety certificate even a game behind closed doors wouldn't be legible I don't think.

Big job for the volunteers Sunday if they're even allowed in?

The way I see it is;
a) Oldham away
b) Game rescheduled
c) Forfeit points

Again I expect we're at the mercy of NL and Oldham being understanding

I had similar incident with my girlfriend last week. She got the to right humps and told me she was definitely in the market for a new man as apparently I'm obsessed with football this time of year.... Not sure if she meant loan or permanent ?

 

[Leeboy]

reschedule it (like when games are called off due to weather etc). Gives the ‘injured’ players more time to recover as well as more time for the stadium repairs.

 

[Farmer Fossett]

I have conflicting feelings about this. I would love to go to show my support for the Management and players but really don't want to give my money to RM.
I think it would be great to demonstrate outside the ground and for everyone to enter say after 15mins.
That's if the game gets played!

Nope. Most are here.

The issue is, by putting money into the club, you aren't supporting the staff and allowing the club to sign players etc.

Ron has already proved that.

How many times do we get an everage gate of 6k and staff and bills go unpaid.

He just takes the money and runs the club into the ground. You aren't saving anything by paying. He doesn't care.

I'd love nothing more than to be at roots hall on the 5th of August in my usual season card spot, but im absolutely against putting money into the club whilst he is in charge.

New owners in and I'll be first to buy a season card, shirt and beers etc.

Any money paid in now, will just go into Ron's bank account as he waves goodbye.

I'll probably do the pre match in the pub and then head home to watch the game indoors. My 3 other mates who are / were season card holders will all be doing the same.

 

[The Big Dady]

How many does Oldham's Boundary Park hold?

13,513 so plenty of room for the traveling Shrimpers.
