Latics in early trip to final venue

ATHLETIC officials have made a trip to Wembley for a Johnstone's Paint Trophy final briefing.

All four area finalists, also including Chesterfield, Barnet and Swindon, were represented to discuss arrangements.

Athletic's party comprised chairman Simon Corney, chief executive Neil Joy and commercial manager Jenny Warburton.



SUPPORTERS wishing to avoid queues at the turnstiles can buy tickets in advance for Monday's JPT Northern final, second leg against Chesterfield at Boundary Park.


LEYTON Orient are the next visitors to Boundary Park. The game takes place on Saturday, February 4, and is classed in category 'C' which means adults in the lower section of the main stand can watch for £14.
