Nope. It's a little sloping pitch called Whitebank with a tiny little stand on one side which keeps getting vandalised. And apparently there is only one shower. I know because our players complained about playing there in a pre-season friendly.
This could get interesting!

Whitebank Stadium, apparently. Oldham Town's home ground.

Well it's a result that should keep most of the favourites interested.

| Leigh v Fax and Salford v Leeds as the TV games?
Entirely predictable results there. Could be some truly horrible crowds.

About 100? (Seriously!) There is one diddy stand. Otherwise it is standing around the edge of the pitch, hardcore stylee.

Should satisfy those die hards who hate the new stadium and people going past with beer holders.

Late last year there were press releases stating that Oldham RLFC wanted to improve the stadium to take the capacity up from 1,502 to the 3,000 required for the Championship, but that there focus initially would be ensuring there are facilities in place to put a perimeter around it and charge people for entry.

1000 according to Wiki.
As someone has already said maybe Staylebridge, where we played in 2002. Just hope it doesn't rain!!

| Should move it to Langtree Park IMO. Bigger crowd, so a bigger pay day for Oldham. They won't give up home "advantage" but surely someone somewhere has to make these decisions from a business perspective.

But would we want this? How much would hosting such an unappetising fixture cost? I suspect there will be a figure around the 5 or 6 thousand mark where the club would break even on hosting the event.

| Chances are that this wil be played at LP, the whitebank is not up to the required level to play a Super league team. Chris Hamilton told the fans last night any draw with an SL club, we would surrender home advantage, and Boundary Park is not an option. I just hope that we play you on a Sunday, and not your normal Fri night.
