BP1960 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 (edited) That would be 3 football stadiums within a few miles of each other (4 if you count City's reserves ground) http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/spo...35m_new_stadium Edited March 25, 2010 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are right... I see FC United as a massive threat... If you want to watch a "small" team why would you choose Oldham over FC United considering the distance ?

BP1960 Posted March 25, 2010 Author Share Posted March 25, 2010 (edited) Particularly if in a few years time they are in the same division or higher, remember they already have a fan base almost as big as the Latics now - which they will undoubtably build on. IMO with a stadium nearby to Latics they will be a threat Edited March 25, 2010 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaticsLee Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 they will eventually have a bigger fan base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latic12345 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 they will eventually have a bigger fan base. Dare I say, we could even co-operate and build a joint community stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ritchie82 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Every day I seem to become more and more against this Failsworth move. But you don't own the club and aren't losing thousands of pounds a month so your view point doesn't matter. Feel free to keep us update if you wish though.

oafc0000 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 No way a ground share can happen. FC United want to be in Newton Heath for obvious reasons. If they where going to ground share then Bury FC would of been ideal. No way our fans would accept a move to Newton Heath... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc0000 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 They must have seen it coming, it's been rumoured for ages. You are right... Why would someone move a football club like Latics closer to FC United and Manchester City if there long term interests where said football club ? Answers on a postcard...

leeslover Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 i doubt thats going to bother most people... It would bother anyone who have any vaguely pro-Citeh sentiments, or anyone who dislikes the grown-up Rodd Soxx, or anyone who recognises them for the bunch of cocks that they are.

The saving grace is their proposed 5,000 capacity would be too small to accept - even as a temporary ground share. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a chance things won't work out (have you seen its surrounded by housing, NIMBY time) and they will come and share at Failsworth I suppose.
