    Glad he has cleared that up not like he needed to. I was laughing when some bitter oldham fan posted it on the forum and decided to share to laugh at how bitter n full of ***** they are. Next thing odd couple on heres 'nephew delivers papers to oakwell and heard whatever bull ****' and was blown out of all proportion

    No comment on the fact that the squad could not be more threadbare with only two weeks to go to the draft of the season.

    We can't force players to sign.

    Agree. Players have chosen not to sign for us. What's your point? How would you make sure they sign for us?

    We've got a former agent acting as CEO. Surely it's up to him (and the manager) to attract players.

    LJ said a while back that he might wait until the last minute if it meant getting the lads he wanted.

    PC has today stated that we have offers/bids in for players.

    Maybe these are highly sought after lads for this level, maybe we'll soon see a handful drop in?

    I dunno, I'm just trying to look at it positively.

    I'm sure they're trying. You obviously think they're not.

    What would you do?

    I don't know whether they're trying or not - I would assume they are. They're not succeeding though as the general consensus seems to be that we ate a good half a dozen players short of a decent squad.

    The diehards don't need to hear anything from the club to buy a season ticket, the definition of a diehard - they'll just buy regardless.

    What would you do? You're good at asking questions but never seem to answer.

    Of course they're trying, only a fool would think otherwise. Why would they want to fail?

    I've never bought a season ticket or match ticket based on anything but wanting to go and support my team.
