Barlows bow out of coach travel to away games

Last updated : 25 September 2005 By The Chairman
Barlows have made a business decision to no longer operate coaches for supporters for Latics away games. The long standing coach company have decided to rationalise that side of their business. Barlows have taken Athletic supporters and the team away to games for endless years and their demise will mean that other arrangements will need to be made.

Sean Jarvis said, "Obviously this is a sad day for the Club, particularly as Barlows have been almost the fabric of the Club for decades. We at the club were obviously saddened that they are no longer likely to be involved but would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their loyal support and of course wish them well for the future. The show must go on. We will of course be holding talks with alternative operators."
