Chaddy End will still be the home end

The Latics have decided to allow the Chaddy End to continue to be the home fans end for the coming season. Some supporters have been so concerned that they have not bought their season tickets as they could not be guarantee to be there for the whole season. After meeting with the Safety Advisory Group any future developments could take up to 12 months to be realised.


Sean Jarvis (pictured) said, “Obtaining the necessary licences and permissions can be a lengthy process and we feel that the debate needs starting now. It will continue throughout the summer and we will take feedback from supporters before processing any possible move. The consultation has to start now because any further hold ups would delay the planning process that the club would have to take if supporters voted for the move. Investigations would include costings and the club would also have to submit licensing and planning applications as well as amendments to the ground safety certificate and that is why it is vital that the process begins now.”
