Oldham Athletic are delighted to welcome back club legend, Andy Ritchie, as Matchday Ambassador.

The Club are proud to announce that former player and manager, Andy Ritchie, will be re-joining Latics in a new role as part of our hospitality and events team. 'Stitch' will play a key role in enhancing the matchday experience for guests, supporters and sponsors for the upcoming season.

A beloved figure in the club’s history, Andy brings a wealth of footballing knowledge and a deep connection to the club and wider Oldham community.

Mark Smith, Head of Hospitality and Events, commented:

“We’re delighted to welcome Andy back to Oldham Athletic in this new capacity. His legacy at the club speaks for itself and having him involved in our matchday operations adds real value for both our supporters and commercial partners. Andy’s presence will help us continue building strong relationships across all areas of our matchday hospitality.”

As a Matchday Ambassador, Andy will support a range of activities including corporate hospitality, fan engagement, and community outreach, reinforcing the club’s commitment to reconnecting with its proud history and loyal supporter base.

Oldham Athletic looks forward to welcoming Stitch back to Boundary Park ahead of our first home fixture back in the EFL against Colchester United.
