Roughyeds chairman Bill Quinn has toasted impressive early season ticket sales for the 2026 Betfred Championship campaign, and urged fans to secure their seat before November 3rd to avoid disappointment.
Our Early Bird prices are live now, right up until November 3rd - and Bill does not want any of our passionate fanbase to miss out.
"What I would say to people who are pondering getting a season ticket is just do it - because with the designated seats you don't want to be disappointed.
Get the season ticket as soon as you can, you know where you are sitting, you know that if you have extra people joining you we can accommodate and sort that out."
Quinn explains the club's season ticket strategy on a new episode of The Boundary Line, out now on Roughyeds TV. One of the biggest talking points ahead of 2026 has been the move to designated seating, to allow all fans to purchase their own seat for the season.

"We have had fans after many games complain that they went to the toilet or to get a drink and when they came back their seat was taken," said Quinn.
So it caused quite a few problems that other people don't realise. We looked at it and thought that if we get into Super League and are getting bigger crowds then we would have to have designated seats.
Some of our fans like to change ends. But the trouble with that is it's great when you have lots of room and maybe we don't have as many, but if we are trying to progress and go into Super League that stand would be full. How do you do that? That would have been impossible to do."
Quinn has also urged those wishing to take advantage of our new 450 Club - which includes a padded seat along with pre and post-match hospitality in the Broadway Suite - to do so quickly.
"With the 450 Club it is not just pie and peas, it is having the environment inside the Broadway Suite, the presentations, seeing people in there every week. This is selling out so we don't want people to disappointed. Get into it as quick as you can because in another week to a fortnight there won't be any 450s left."
Quinn says the club is keen to work with fans to make the Boundary Park matchday experience as good as it can possibly be for everyone involved.
"We are prepared to do the work to give a better fan experience for everybody. There is no way we want any fan to be disappointed when they come to Oldham, we are trying to do everything we can to give them the experience and make sure they have a great day. We can't on one hand beg for bums on seats and think about Super League and IMG and then not listen or do what we can for the fans."
