A 'during performance inspection' has been carried out by the Oldham Council Safety Advisory Group and outside agencies. As a result of the inspection, the North Stand has been closed with immediate effect. The club has co-operated fully with the Council and other safety statutory agencies with the result that season ticket holders and other fans who use the stand will have to move.
Season ticket will not have to visit the ticket office to have tickets reallocated; instead all tickets will be valid for the Main Stand and Rochdale Road End.
