The main reason for the thread is to keep me focused on the save, hopefully improve my writing, & might be of mild interest
Anyway, the first few tweets of this thread will lay a background and set the rules.

I am going to start a save with Oldham Athletic. This is in part the challenge and because as a fan of the entertaining & always informative @POF_POD, the demise of many old northern clubs at the hands of poor ownership is a loss to many local communities.

Oldham start with a transfer ban, so no signings in the 1st window. There is little (even for EFL L2) in the way of budget/finances, minimal staffing & an underdeveloped youth structure. A few local rivalries will keep it interesting too.

Mining scams can be a brilliant way to con investors (pump & dump) and because of their erratic revenue streams & international make-up, they can be great vehicles to launder money through.
