ASSISTANCE With Christopher Hamilton THIS afternoon promises to be another stern test of our capabilities as atop side in the Northern Ford Premiership. Doncaster, our guests this afternoon, have spent big to assemble aside that has performed well this season and we will have to be “tuned in” for 80 minutes to get the win we want. It is ironic to see ourselves and Doncaster so near the top of the table after last season when we finished in the bottom two positions in the league. Ihave said, on may occasions, since we started the club that our position as aclub would be strengthened considerably once the News Corporation distributions were evened up and the 2000 season has seen that happen. The remaining games for the players this season include some real toughies but the beauty of the situation is, after today’s visitors Doncaster, we still have to play Leigh, Widnes and Featherstone all at home, and Dewsbury away, out of the top eight and therefore we can control our own destiny. It would be remiss of me not to mention the achievements of last weekend at the club when we fielded 3teams at Academy, Alliance and first team level. The icing on the cake was the fact that all 3teams won, 2away from home and particular mention should go to the Alliance and Academy teams who both won tough games against bigger and intimidating opponents. Congratulations must go to the players and staff of all three sides. Finally it was interesting to see that certain clubs were complaining about the number of games in May. Why didn’t they do this before the fixture format was voted in? (unamimously Ithink). The great game of Rugby League is alaughing stock at times, and outbursts like these only serve to highlight why. Time and energy would be better spent trying to come up with ways for clubs to survive when the Sky money runs out, instead of all the negative comments. Come to think of it Ipropose to surest this at the APC meeting next Friday but then again responsible management and forward planning are not things that sit well in Rugby League Boardrooms are they? Oh well, it was anice thought while it lasted. Enjoy the game.

    My Lifestory by Audrey Pettigrew Family Life I was born on 21st August 1932 at St Mary’s Hospital, Manchester. 2 The only photo taken of me as a baby is the one below, when I was 12 months old. 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.

In this edition we welcome a number of new partners who have recently joined the charity to assist our work, particularly the support we provide to former and current players in all levels of the game. All Sport Insurance and Purple Travel have come on board as members of the newly-formed Rugby League Cares Business Club which aims to provide a wide range of services that help players, particularly in areas where the nature of their occupation can put them at a disadvantage. 2016 proved to be a challenging year for the charity as we continued to play an important role in assisting players successfully transitioning from the sport by awarding education and welfare grants. We enjoyed a very successful partnership with Rugby AM and the Jane Tomlinson Appeal on the Ride to Rio challenge; and we secured grants from Curious Minds and Cape UK to support club foundations to deliver some life-affi rming experiences for young people in their communities via a Cultural Welcome Partnership programme. This culminated in which will deliver great outcomes for our Finally, I hope you enjoy this new version some terrifi c dance performances at maor benefi ciaries and which is easy for the public of the newsletter and catching up about all events during the year.

    THE ACTION KICKS OFF THIS SATURDAY NIGHT Sir Peter Leitch Club Newsletter RLWC 2017 24th October 2017 It’s 4 days until the Kiwis play # their first game of the 2017 RLWC 193 Back The Kiwis By Enjoying Lunch By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan E ARE only days from the kick-off of the 2017 Rugby League World Cup, with Australia and England W– in what will be a hell of a match - doing the honours on Friday night. Of course the Kiwis take on Samoa on Saturday night at Mt Smart, and that one should be a good game too. League legend Olsen Filipaina is taking the ball out, which is pretty cool given he has represented the Kiwis and Samoa. The game I am looking forward to is the Kiwis v Tonga in Hamilton, because there is not going to be a lot of love lost when those two sides meet, after everything that has gone on. Before a ball is kicked I have the Kiwis lunch at the Ellerslie Events Centre to look forward to on Friday. When Pete asked if I would take it on with Gordon Gibbons and Tony Feasey, I foolishly said yes, not want- ing to let Pete down. But in truth Gordon has been amazing and we have an incredible line-up of Kiwis greats taking to the stage, and players with a long history of World Cup and test glory in attendance. I have been to several of Peter’s Kiwis lunches and enjoyed every one of them.

  • Felly's Football Tour Introduction 3
    Felly’s Football Tour Sprint/Summer 2021 (tbc) Fundraising for Fellysfund in memory of our good friend The Motivation To Turf Moor To the University of Bolton Stadium Supporting Felly’s Fund To Deepdale To Goodison Park To Boundary Park Felly's Football Tour Introduction 3 Redwood Events have been arranging charity walks and cycle events since 2007 and have recently started to work with the Darby Rimmer MND Foundation. This has given us a great exposure to, and understanding of, the challenges that the Motor Neurone Disease can bring. Life changes very quickly for those diagnosed with MND and for their families. The average life expectancy for someone with Motor Neurone Disease is just 2-5 years from the onset of symptoms. A third of people diagnosed will die within a year and half within 2 years. It’s a 1/300 lifetime risk in the UK of being diagnosed with MND. That’s 3 children in each and every school today. There is no known cause of MND and there is no cure or effective treatment, it’s always fatal. When Paul Stanway talked to us about the great work they have done in memory of their great friend Felly, we were very keen to help. Felly’s Football Tour will combine a 131 mile continuous walking tour from Liverpool FC (Felly’s favourite team) to Fleetwood Town FC calling at fifteen other football grounds in between. This is a journey of 130 miles. After a short break for breakfast, the walking will give to cycling as riders will then head north from Fleetwood Town to Barrow AFC via Morecambe FC, a journey of 73 miles.
