Is it true that Oldham doesn't have a railway station in it anymore or in fact anywhere close? What's the best way of getting to the ground other than car at the moment?

Correct. Manchester picadilly and then bus or cab it mate. Apparently pretty close.
We stayed at the ramada on portland street about three mins walk from Manc Piccadilly and that cost us £160 for two twins for two nights so £20 a head per night!

[cite]Posted By: oohaahmortimer[/cite]i'm going , i went there when andy jones missed an absolute sitter .. it may have even been on a plastic pitch
It was, pretty sure of it. I was there too. Wasn't it on a Friday night or something like that?
Def a night game. Remember Jonesy looking round to try and find an excuse for missing from about four yards. Even looked at the 'pitch' for divots. :-)
