With this season all but dead for Latics, our attention is firmly on the future. There's little chance of success on the pitch until there is stability off it. This week, Matt, Andy & Will discuss the importance of the fans in building that future, turning to the chair of Bees United, the Brentford supporters trust, to learn what they did. Bees fans were instrumental in building a new stadium and helping their team from Division 4 to the verge of the Premiership.

In the aftermath of last week's Craig Davies interview, we look closer at just how successful the owner has been at fulfilling his vision for the club since he officially took over in 2018 . We chat with Andrew Jones from Identity FS, one of the two main sponsors who have withdrawn their sponsorship this season in the wake of decisions made by the club. With falling season tickets sales, a lack of commercial investment and yet more instability on the pitch, just how close to the edge are we?

Brought to the club twice by Shez, striker Craig Davies played for Oldham in 2007/08 & 2017/18. In this frank and open interview, he describes the feeling around the club as "day and night" in those two spells, before and after the take over. This is Craig's account of what happened in the season that finally saw Oldham relegated to the bottom tier.

Paul Murray has been head of the youth academy at Oldham since the summer of 2019. He also has a distinguished playing career at the club, as well as having served as a coach and assistant manager. It's fair to say he knows the club inside out, so Matt caught up with him to learn more about how he's been able to shape the youth set up, what his main challenges are and what he'd like to see happen going forward.
