Latics are one of a handful of football clubs that has a voice on the board and a say in how fans are represented.

By retaining a three-per-cent shareholding and a seat on the board, the Trust Oldham aims to represent the views of  fans and help the club progress.

Trust official Richard Attwood said: "The club we all support has gone through many changes in the last seven years.

"There was the arrival of the 'Three Amigos,'  the emotion of the original planning application for a new ground being rejected to more recently the departure of Simon Blitz and Danny Gazal and the move to Failsworth encountering problems.

"The resilience of Latics fans has always been one of the traits we are known for. The way fans banded together in the summer of 2004 is something many will never forget, but hope never to repeat. Together we can help support the club we follow."

Trust Oldham's principle aim is to ensure Latics is helped when and where needed. The Trust works with the club on many initiatives and projects lending support, time and in some cases finances.

Previously Trust Oldham has helped the club secure the services of Luke Beckett, equipment and materials for the groundstaff and currently with PlayerShare initiative. www.laticsplayershare.co.uk
