This guy is a dictator and a joke because he has an arab accent, I think you guys know full well why you've sided with the fans. He was reasonable enough to adhere to Jim Whites request on air and allow the fans back. Too right he should get an apology for the insults directed at him and the club. He invested his money with the hope of making the club better, sometimes it's challenging ask Mike Ashley. The fans must have acted loutish and were prejudice towards him. He has every right to ban them, it is his club and the fans pay to "support" the club...whether the performances are good bad or indifferent. Fans are fickle, they want the same success as Sheikh Mansour with Man City. Unfortunately lifes not that rosey, get behind your team and stop dictating to the owner how he should invest his money.
@Billy Billson "Absolutely tosh" that's a real intellectual mans response. Moreover was there any mention of Brits or whites? Just for the record no problem with either, apart from the half wits on here spouting a filthy prejudice. As would any descent Brit Billy I'm sure you would agree!?? After all that's what living in a descent western civilization has taught me. Read the comments, there is so much race baiting and prejudice, people become a problem when you can't articulate your words without name calling and facing the reality.
As a young boy I used to go to Boundary Park quite a lot, I was at the game on boxing day to see Oldhams beat Southport 11-0, I used to live in Failsworth so it was easy to get to, much easier than Old Trafford I am a life long United fan but it's sad to see Oldham in this situation,
As an Oldham fan hearing this guy speak for the first time, I'm completely embarrassed. Having read his words in print many times, I can say quite firmly he cannot be trusted because he lies. Plain and simple, he is a liar.
This is just the start. When I read the title, I thought the fans was racist against a player or drunk etc. In his part of the world, people with less money or class are not allowed to speak against or speak up about issues. He thought he could play that game here. Just wait until ManCity/Newcastle ever dare to complain. They’ll be banned from the city if the owners had their way. Be careful who you get into bed with.
City and Newcastle owners won't do that. Whilst I dislike them, they're not that stupid. Banning fans is a very bad PR move and if you're in the business of sports washing, it's counter productive. City's owners didn't spend millions to improve the surrounding areas of Manchester to improve their image, only to ruin it by banning a few "commoners".
@@willhowson6627City fans complain all the time?.... About their owners?..... Are you crazy?... City fans adore their owners, especially sheikh Mansour!! Boy have you got your facts wrong! 😂
Let call it as it is. He is used to ppl in his religion/culture not to question his answers/decisions. And thinks everyone should respect him. Power trippy guy.
BARRY STANTON of course he does. But I seriously doubt that it’s because the people of his religion don’t question his decisions. That’s just some xenophobic rubbish. It’s just the guy is clearly on a power trip and thinks he can do what he wants. At the end of the day, he does literally own the club. A d*ckhead nonetheless, but still the owner
Clubs need to be protected from becoming middle-eastern playtoys. Bring in independent regulators now. Also pretty funny how this guy is a multi-millionaire but sounds like he's calling through a potato.
@Christianna Charboneau apply some context. It's irrelevant that there are more American owners (which is probably only 2-3 more), its about what's happening at these clubs and the reasonings/ethics behind it. Perhaps you haven't heard much about American ownership because they're not doing anything majorly abnormal? Bar the Glazers, Kroenke and FSG's attempt at the ESL, which was backed by Arabs and Europeans alike. FSG have lead Liverpool back to the pinnacle of football without breaking FFP rules, the Glazers and Kroenkes are an issue at their respective clubs, but again do not bring into question the integrity and sustainability of the sport, only themselves. Do not pretend that you haven't noticed the growing trend amongst members of Arabic-state Royal houses, that are buying football clubs because they can and have no regard for the sustainability and competitiveness of the game. They simply wish to spend their millions (or billions) of pocket change (which more often than not is surrounded and smeared with questionable moral and ethical issues) as fast as they can in order to get a club to the top. This means mass spending beyond the clubs means, over spending on players and wages that leads to inflation etc etc. That is exactly what City have done since their ownership have arrived, spending 50-60m on benchwamers since 2009/2010, PSG dropping 220m on Neymar. They have ruined Football's market which has a major knock on effect for all clubs, especially the minor clubs further down the football pyramid. City's owner investment in the surrounding area is the least they could do and should be commended. But that doesn't hide the fact that their cheating and abuse of the game has and is currently ruining football. City's owners have cheated, and ironically beat FFP on a technicality because they could *afford* the 'best lawyers'. They are not an all singing, all dancing positive force who have always been super well run. They are well run now, because they could afford to spend beyond their means and splash money until it started to work. Not all clubs will be as lucky as City and when these 'princes' and so on, get bored or are quite possibly removed from English football (if we ever bring in a fit and proper ownership requirement) the clubs they've bought could be in serious financial trouble. Just listen to the man in this video, he's a narcissistic, juvenile and toxic individual who enjoys feeling like he has power. He has no care for the club and its fans? It's a disgusting attitude and people like that should be nowhere near football and its historic clubs.
@Christianna Charboneau why am I not surprised at your ignorance? Edit: Liverpool actually opened their books and were found clear of anything. City were found guilty, about to be penalised, then appealed and got off on a technicality. The keyword being *guilty* lol.
@Christianna Charboneau you know you're losing a debate when you start mentioning separate and irrelevant incidents. No one is claiming Liverpool (which were an example) are perfect, I don't even support them, I hate them. Get a grip of yourself and learn how to debate. You sound like a bitter City fan.
@Christianna Charboneau yes it is irrelevant to the *debate at hand* - of which you are losing as you have no point, and have now resorted to mentioning tragedies in a fickle attempt to save face. Talk of *'jealousy'* is such a weak rebuttle based off of nothing, I've seen better from year 7 debate classes. It simply furthers the image that the reason you come across bitter, is because your precious City have been criticised for what they are. Unless you have anything actually relevant to contribute, please stop continuing this drivel, you're filling up my notifications.

Owner who says some fans just aren’t’ loyal enough calls in… from Dubai… when the club are in a relegation battle. If he wants to prove the fans wrong, come to Oldham and run the club
Banning fan's will give you bad PR, no matter what fan's will always be last people at a football club. Because you can change ownership, managers & player's, but not fan's
Just been to Oldham tonight. We beat them 6-0 granted in the Papa Johns Trophy. I didn’t realise the state of affairs here. There was a pitch invasion when we scored our 6th. Just doing some research now and it’s not good at all. The EFL and owners like this are killing small mainly Northern Clubs. We had Bury, Wigan Athletic (my club and thank God we survived), Bolton Wanderers, Blackpool.. to name a few. It’s hard enough to survive surrounded by multi million prestigious clubs like Manchester United and Liverpool and the like. These clubs have a very loyal and historic fan bases which have huge community inputs to poor areas. It’s sad to see that money and corruption is killing out traditional small clubs. It’s got to stop.
How on earth did this clown pass fit and proper owner test. The League has a lot to answer for. We don't want another Bury any football fan no matter what club they support should be behind the Oldham fans. This is scandalous
He does nothing it's always somelse fault doesn't back the manager got his brother as sporting dictator ridding players contracts and fans tickets for standing up to him
Like Oldham a lot ,remember them getting promotion at Portman Road in the very early 90s to the top flight . Nice set of fans that day,and were a credit to their club,oh and Ian Marshall was a great buy from you to Ipswich.
Sorry - but I couldn't understand/hear a single word this guy said! Surely talkSPORT should have conducted a soundcheck or provided subtitles due to the pitiful sound quality as the whole point of this broadcast was to H-E-A-R what this owner was saying!
People only want what is best for them. Nothing else. It doesn't matter who you are or where you're from. I'm happy to take criticism for what I do, criticism for who I am is a different level and I think that is the owner's point here.
It not your club, none of these clubs are the owners club. They belong to the fans and the community. You're just looking after them for us. But a lot of them don't look after them properly. If you can't take care of your children properly, you have them taking off you. Same should be for football clubs.
The league need to get better at weeding out these types of owners, unfortunately, it's a clash of cultures. The guy can't be labelled as bad as he comes from a different culture, where wealth demands a different kind of respect as it does in England.
Flipping hell, and here i am complaining about the kroenkes, yeah we might not win anytime soon with them but jheeez lucky we don't have an owner like this
why the hell would they with RA for the last 18 years he will not tolerate failure managers come and go he want elite success, they have nowt to bash RA for he gives the fans what they need and expect
He is so vindictive that he would rather run our club into the ground and see us go out of existence rather than admit he is wrong. We have had some real hard times since getting relegated from the Prem in 94, but nothing can compare to ALMO's regime. We need help!
Banning fans because they have a voice which they don’t like.Jesus can you imagine all football clubs doing this? Arsenal and Man U would have no fans left!
Betting against the club you own is a guaranteed money tree, nothing you can do, part of me doesn't blame them given just how much they have to pump in and how fickle fans are, randy Lerner gave millions for years but didn't for one year and they hated him for it
I genuinely feel bad for Oldham fans that this is your owner. His getting rid of those who would talk down on his regime almost like the CCP. Maybe these fans end up disappearing next XD
@@kennybrown3302 Mugabe was in power for over 30 years, in a one party state. Living in luxury while his people starved, and "disappeared" all those that questioned him. 'Not a dictator' you say...yeah right. Your comment says a lot about you.
Let this be a warning to every club ,the rugby league club is just about going ,and the football club may be going into non league, be careful who buys your club ,the flip side is 8 miles down the road you have city and United who would you pay to see non league or the Premier league ,come on Oldham sort it out,you have the best meat pies in any league, please sort it out we not need more burys
This is how things work in other Countries and Cultures. This needs to be stopped immediately. Can the FA come in and put a stop to this? I'm not very familiar with how the FA works. But you'd think they would have some power here and put a stop to this?
This guy is just as bad as the big 6 owners who tried to torpedo the whole hierarchy with their coup to form a breakaway corporate league. Owners acting with self interest instead of being custodians for the club, fans and community.
TROUBLE IS THE FANS ARE FOREVER CALLING THE PLAYERS, WHICH AFFECTS THE CONFIDENCE OF YOUNG PLAYERS, YES HES NOT GOOD BUT GREAT FANS STAY QND SUPPORT NO MATTER WHAT,LIKE I DID WHEN WE WERE BOTTOM IF 4TH DIV IN 60S, KEN BATES CAME WITH QLL HIS MONEY BOUGHT SOME GREAT PLAYERS THEN BUGGRRED OFF, HES KUST GOT SHERIDEN BACK,

How on earth did this clown pass fit and proper owner test. The League has a lot to answer for. We don't want another Bury any football fan no matter what club they support should be behind the Oldham fans. This is scandalous
He does nothing it's always somelse fault doesn't back the manager got his brother as sporting dictator ridding players contracts and fans tickets for standing up to him
I have a feeling that Simon is banned from Oldham as from now.
This guy has a real Aladeen mindset…
You are Aladeen on this one.
The EFL are only bothered about making sure clubs don’t spend too much money. They’re not interested in the real problems.
This just shows he has absolutely no idea what he is doing.
Good luck Oldham from A Leeds fan
Owner is a joke, tells managers who to pick in the team, tells players how they should play.
Like Oldham a lot ,remember them getting promotion at Portman Road in the very early 90s to the top flight .
Nice set of fans that day,and were a credit to their club,oh and Ian Marshall was a great buy from you to Ipswich.
Sorry - but I couldn't understand/hear a single word this guy said! Surely talkSPORT should have conducted a soundcheck or provided subtitles due to the pitiful sound quality as the whole point of this broadcast was to H-E-A-R what this owner was saying!
Lemsagam should be Lemsagone!
People only want what is best for them. Nothing else. It doesn't matter who you are or where you're from. I'm happy to take criticism for what I do, criticism for who I am is a different level and I think that is the owner's point here.
Christ alive 🙄 I feel for Oldham
It not your club, none of these clubs are the owners club. They belong to the fans and the community. You're just looking after them for us. But a lot of them don't look after them properly. If you can't take care of your children properly, you have them taking off you. Same should be for football clubs.
The league need to get better at weeding out these types of owners, unfortunately, it's a clash of cultures. The guy can't be labelled as bad as he comes from a different culture, where wealth demands a different kind of respect as it does in England.
Wow !!! Club owner and dictator
Flipping hell, and here i am complaining about the kroenkes, yeah we might not win anytime soon with them but jheeez lucky we don't have an owner like this
Look at this. These guys know who to pick on. You think they would even attempt to do this if given the chance with Abromovich
Abramovich doesn’t ban loyal fans for having differing views to his
Except Abramovich doesn't ban Chelsea fans from Stamford bridge for having different views to him
hasn't abramovich won 2 champ leagues and multiple premiers. probably quite far behind Abdullah on the grill list
why the hell would they with RA for the last 18 years he will not tolerate failure managers come and go he want elite success, they have nowt to bash RA for he gives the fans what they need and expect
I feel so bad for Oldham fans I really do 😞😞😞
He is so vindictive that he would rather run our club into the ground and see us go out of existence rather than admit he is wrong. We have had some real hard times since getting relegated from the Prem in 94, but nothing can compare to ALMO's regime. We need help!
Banning fans because they have a voice which they don’t like.Jesus can you imagine all football clubs doing this? Arsenal and Man U would have no fans left!
It seems every club around Manchester seems to suffer tnis fate Stockport Bolton Bury Wigan now Oldham... Rochdale will be next.
People with money and power always have hated and always will hate people standing up to them.
Who does Jim think he is 😂😂
this man needs a pr person and to never speak to the media again
could tell abdullah got hurt by the comments had to back track into this interview
Did I just hear that right he’s banned fans from having a opinion. My goodness 😂
A lot of owners will buy a football club and soon realize the cost of a chance of prem football, then lose heart
Didn't start off well with the good morning and went downhill from there
Betting against the club you own is a guaranteed money tree, nothing you can do, part of me doesn't blame them given just how much they have to pump in and how fickle fans are, randy Lerner gave millions for years but didn't for one year and they hated him for it
I genuinely feel bad for Oldham fans that this is your owner. His getting rid of those who would talk down on his regime almost like the CCP. Maybe these fans end up disappearing next XD
What a radio station. Bravo 👏
Sounds like Mugabe
More like Boris. Mugaba was not a dictator, it was the West who called him that.
@@kennybrown3302 Mugabe was in power for over 30 years, in a one party state. Living in luxury while his people starved, and "disappeared" all those that questioned him. 'Not a dictator' you say...yeah right. Your comment says a lot about you.
@@jonoharper4729 The German chancellor was in power for 16 years
@@jonoharper4729 he was elected legitimately. Stop your bias. Who are you to determine whose election is legitimate.
You cannot dictate how fans behave is this guy joking.. you have to be nice or your banned 😂😂
I think the problem at Oldham is that Mr corner centres down the river with this owner
Let this be a warning to every club ,the rugby league club is just about going ,and the football club may be going into non league, be careful who buys your club ,the flip side is 8 miles down the road you have city and United who would you pay to see non league or the Premier league ,come on Oldham sort it out,you have the best meat pies in any league, please sort it out we not need more burys
Jim who are you to make demands of an owner where you do not clearly have all the facts
Stay strong Oldham fans from The Cobblers fan 😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞
These owners don't understand democracy, hope you're watching Newcastle fans.
This is how things work in other Countries and Cultures. This needs to be stopped immediately. Can the FA come in and put a stop to this? I'm not very familiar with how the FA works. But you'd think they would have some power here and put a stop to this?
This guy is just as bad as the big 6 owners who tried to torpedo the whole hierarchy with their coup to form a breakaway corporate league. Owners acting with self interest instead of being custodians for the club, fans and community.
This is disgusting. Oldham fans should boycott
You tell him Simon !!
This is what happens when skint members run a football club. He can't afford to pay players on time that's ridiculous
TROUBLE IS THE FANS ARE FOREVER CALLING THE PLAYERS, WHICH AFFECTS THE CONFIDENCE OF YOUNG PLAYERS, YES HES NOT GOOD BUT GREAT FANS STAY QND SUPPORT NO MATTER WHAT,LIKE I DID WHEN WE WERE BOTTOM IF 4TH DIV IN 60S, KEN BATES CAME WITH QLL HIS MONEY BOUGHT SOME GREAT PLAYERS THEN BUGGRRED OFF, HES KUST GOT SHERIDEN BACK,
Owner can't even be arsed to be in Oldham
I'm from Oldham and I don't blame him to be honest.
@@AJ-xv7oh me too
Sensational stuff
Couldn’t understand a word he was saying
