Oldham Protests

[Ferrite]

Interesting ideas to “pack the Park” for last weekend’s game and then boycott the following game, to highlight the potential size of the fanbase whilst expressing their frustration with the current ownership.

It certainly worked last weekend, with just over 6,000 in and a come-from-behind win. Be interesting to see how part 2 goes.

Good idea.

We were heading in a similar direction but the chairman statements about returning the ownership of the ground back, the shareholder meetings and the appointment of Hill seem to have dampened efforts.

Every game is a game 2 already for a 1,000 previously regular supporters.

Getting them to game 1 would be the tricky part at the Sinking Sands.

I am not 100% sure but I think that was the situation at Boundary Park too before the latest protests.

Yep, 6,080 on Saturday compared to an average before that of 3,900 this season.

Oh dear I do wish posters would do their research first, nice story at first glance but when you look deeper 1973 of those were from Port Vale, I must admit though it will look a real success after FGR have been there. 😂

Only 400 seemed to have joined the protest. Bet a few pissed off after missing the game.
