Before I was born my mother gave birth to unnamed, stillborn, twin boys. 3 My mother was Margaret Evans and my father was Arthur Gregory. My dad served in World War I.

The word Jew is written in Dutch. 6 The Dutch family became very instrumental in my upbringing, and became lifelong friends. Mum would take me to work with her where I met Jan, a Dutch boy. As youngsters we played happily together, and in our teens we spent many happy times in Holland. 7 I lived in Cranberry Street, Glodwick, Oldham, quite a poor neighbourhood. I lived in a two up two down terraced house with no bathroom. When I was 8 years old in 1940, I witnessed a bomb exploding in my street and destroying houses and the local pub, the Cranberry Inn. 8 My mother had several sisters who lived nearby. I affectionately knew them as the “old aunts” and they took turns at looking after me, whilst my mother worked.

  • Push the Boundary Email: [email protected]
    Push The Boundary Email: [email protected] 6 November 2019 Dear Abdallah We are writing to you on behalf of those Oldham Athletic supporters who have concerns about the future of our foot- ball club and in particular those listed at the end of this letter. “Push the Boundary” is a group of supporters who have common concerns that our football club is being run in a way that is contra to its best interests. The group has been founded by four supporters but we believe has the support of a large proportion of the fan base. Following the release of our independent group, signatures supporting this letter to you, have risen to 596 in the space of a week. This clearly shows the level of dissatisfaction and disconnect that sup- porters currently feel, at the current state of our beloved Oldham Athletic Football Club. The purpose of this letter is to express our specific concerns about the direction that Oldham Athletic appears to be taking under the current Board of Directors. We fully appreciate the state that the football club was in at the time that you were in negotiations with the previous owner and that these issues stretch back several years. It is far from ideal that Oldham Athletic Football Club no longer owns Boundary Park or the land upon which the ground is located. This will always hugely impact upon the amount of revenue that the club is able to generate. It was also apparent to most supporters that the club was on the brink of insolvency prior to your purchase.

  • Review of 2010/11 – Part 2 – Losing Their Way
    Review of 2010/11 – Part 2 – Losing their way Leeds United’s return to the Championship had seen them exceed expectations, despite heavy defeats at home to Preston and Cardiff and an embarrassing 5-2 reverse at Barnsley. The sheen of beating table-topping QPR on 18 December had been dulled by losing two-goal leads against Leicester and Portsmouth, but as 2011 opened, Leeds were fourth in the table, level on 40 points with Cardiff and Swansea, with Rangers seven points clear of that pack. It was heady stuff after three years in the League One wilderness and supporters were hopeful of a real promotion push in the New Year. Andy O'Brien, pictured celebrating his goal against Hull City on 9 November, made his move to Elland Road permanent on New The positive mood was enhanced by the Year's Day announcement that Irish international centre-back Andy O’Brien, on loan from Bolton since 29 October, would make the move permanent. O’Brien, who represented himself in contract talks, commented: “The meeting with the chairman was something I will remember all my life. It was a bit like when I signed my first contract at Bradford with Geoffrey Richmond – that was entertaining as well. My Dad came in with me initially and he is a big bloke of around 20 stone. The chairman’s first words were, ‘We’ll sign the fat one instead.’ My Dad replied he had been on a diet for six weeks, to which the chairman said, ‘Well that isn't effing working, is it?’ Dad is quite quick-witted and said back, ‘Well I don’t know what your excuse is’.

    File: BMD Tony Reeve and Philip Coates Duration: 0:42:38 Date: 05/08/2016 Typist: 685 START AUDIO Tony Reeve: My name is Tony Reeve, I am 63 years old and I have supported them since 1960 or 1961. Philip Coates: My name is Philip Coates, I am 64 and like Tony I have been supporting them since 1961 or 1962. Interviewer: What made you start supporting Stevenage? Tony Reeve: I have always liked football as a boy. My father brought me the first time in the ‘60s and I just caught the bug from there and carried on watching them. Philip Coates: I think roughly the same. My dad brought me along to the first few matches and as I lived in Stevenage I thought, “I will support Stevenage.” Like Tony I like watching football, it was in me to watch it. Tony Reeve: We both live behind the stand here really, so we are both local. 1 Philip Coates: We are very local. Tony Reeve: It is a five minute walk to the ground. Interviewer: So you have seen the ground change over the years then. Philip Coates: Oh yes. Tony Reeve: Well in the early days it was covered with stones when they first made it and they asked for volunteers to come and pick stones from the pitch. Every game they had there used to be players with blood pouring from their legs because of the stones really. Today you wouldn’t believe that was the same pitch, you just can’t believe it. Philip Coates: The pitch now is like a billiard table, but years ago when it rained the water wouldn’t drain away at all.

But we recovered thanks to our steely determination; a feature of the Club’s commitment that has remained ever since. In 1937/38, we gained Promotion to what we currently call ‘The Championship’ but after a couple of games it was disrupted again by World War II. Again though, tremendous loyalty saw us re-established. In 1948/49, we reached the 5th Round of the FA Cup, away against Portsmouth, who won the old 1st Division League Title that season and the next! Their International stars were confronted by the passion that our Club has shown on so many occasions in our 115-year history. We came extremely close to winning, but lost 3-2 through them scoring their winner five minutes from the end of injury time. Difficulties in the 1960’s were always overcome. Indeed, we beat 1st Division, Sheffield Wednesday in the FA Cup. 1972/73, we thought we were promoted; due to the Radio announcing a score wrong! We lost out on the narrowest of goal averages.
