400 to 15th &17th in division 3 with both teams not really doing "it" at the moment ain't bad . Or perhaps it's something more sinister . I'm sure we'll hear :thinking about:

I'm getting 3 tickets tomorrow so that's 403. Probably says it all that this thread only gets 2 responses. I want to be wrong but I'm getting ever more convinced that there are a tiny number of pro/anti sisu/acl people who will keep arguing among themselves until one day they realise the rest of the fanbase (and their ain't much of it left now) has disappeared - bit like a couple of drunks in a chucking out time brawl who suddenly find the rest of the pub has gone home and it's just them 2 left fighting over something no else is interested in anymore

I wonder if there's people who don't realise it's all ticket? With people not as connected to the club these days that sort of information might pass people by.

They sure know how to sell a match? Won't be going now.

Why is that?

TrueSkyBlueLiam · Apr 16, 2014

Already got mine. Actually quite excited about it. We have a decent chance of winning this one

Probably a lot! I was going to pay on the gate, but luckily by chance I checked.

ccfcway · Apr 16, 2014

why on earth are any league one games all ticket ?

JimmyHillsbeard · Apr 16, 2014

Didn't realise it was all ticket but they wouldn't mail out tickets on Tuesday when I tried to buy one because they thought the Easter mail would be unreliable. Decided to buy on the day as I'm out of the country until Sunday and don't live in Cov. No find I can't do that. Ah well

Yep, it's 2 bald men fighting over a comb. Sort it now or it's CCFC RIP

Trouble is it's not a comb that's the prize but an asset worth tens of millions of pounds. As fans we are sometimes very naive. When you think of what's at stake, all the money being spent on lawyers and the latest pr offensive makes a lot more sense. Murder's been committed for a lot less!

I think on this occasion, it's due to the fact they have demolished one side. So need accurate numbers for segregation etc

WiganSkyBlue · Apr 17, 2014

I'll be there, but I'm only 20 miles away (nearer than Northampton to Cov!!!)

I tried getting tickets from Oldham but was redirected to Coventry. However, trying to get a reply on the phone is really hit and miss - it took me about 8 goes before I got a reply. I tried leaving a message once but never got a call back, so I'm not confident that I could get tickets if I trusted someone to call me back. Piss ups and brewery's come to mind!

Not sure what that's got to do with it. A lot of people will just expect to be able to turn up a Bank Holiday match and pay on the door.

I'll be in the main stand with a complimentary ticket with some Oldham supporting mates. I hadn't realised til now that there's no pay on the gate. Without this comp I'd have wandered up to the turnstile on Monday with £20 in hand not expecting to be knocked back.

Because I would have to make a last minute decision....so now I don't have that option so won't be going. I lived in Chadderton for a bit so have a soft spot for Oldham and there fans.

I don't understand why games like this can't be pay on the day?

It's wank considering that we were going to take thousands away every week, all those loyal 8500 regulars that now cannot attend Sixfields were going to see every ground in this league.

I agree with you, it's madness. Stupidity from Oldham to not allow pay on the day, just losing themselves money.

Buy one online JHB and select the 'Collect from ticket office' - if you don't collect from Coventry they send it up to Oldham's ticket office.

Wheres Wally (and Fergie) · Apr 17, 2014

Surprised you can't buy on the gate. However, I prefer to have a ticket in my hand before I set off and never leave it to chance. Collected at Peterborough a couple of seasons back and wasn't settled until we had our tickets! Looking forward to the game. First time to Oldham and completes the set for League One...until next season when Chesterfield and maybe Fleetwood, Oxford or Southend come up!

Not interested mate unless it's 34 miles away.

Then we have something to discuss, yeah?!

If only CCFC was an asset Michael. The reality is that it's a liability that's been losing millions of pounds every year for many years - it's a total basket case. The Ricoh might be an asset, but CCFC sure as hell isn't.

Wyken Sky Blue · Apr 17, 2014

Nightmare to get to as well if you're not driving.

As fernandopartidge said we should be selling out every single away game, especially those that don't go to Sixfields and only wish to attend away games.

jimmyhillsfanclub · Apr 17, 2014

I was gonna go until just now...despite stating I was not going to another game this season after the tranmere game......as it turns out I'm not!!

....I just assumed it was pay on the gate......

Ah well.....Weather looks decent so it wouldn't be the right anyhow.....the football supporters rule book clearly states that if you go to Oldham away, you have to freeze your tits off...

Looks like I can take the Lambretta for a rare spin instead....

SlowerThanPlatt · Apr 17, 2014

Tickets available on the gate now. Who decides these things? :thinking about:

jimmyhillsfanclub · Apr 17, 2014

....right....Lambretta will probably remain in garage now....

...I'll dig my thermal vest out & prepare to enjoy a good laugh at the Oldham kiddies who think they're hoolies....

The home team I would imagine?
I guess when only 400 have been sold and the away section is quite a big stand, they are probably thinking that even with only a handful walking on the day will be extra £ in their pocket

Nice. I think I'll be purchasing one in the next few years!

MichaelCCFC · Apr 17, 2014

Got oldham and sheff u tkts but big match build up isn't helped when there's only 2 of you in the shop! I know I keep banging on about this but everything I see and hear at the moment is telling me there has been another (negative) step change across the fanbase and even a majority of those who at the start of the season were still at least interested in ccfc just aren't any more. I also keep saying I hope I'm wrong
