Oldham shirt sponsor - CM solicitors - says it will support the League One club whatever decision they make regarding signing convicted rapist Ched Evans. The club says talks regarding the possible signing remain ongoing but more than 30,000 people have signed an online petition urging them not to sign the Wales international striker.
"As secondary shirt sponsors, we are obviously aware of on-going speculation concerning the possible engagement of Ched Evans by Oldham Athletic," read a CM solicitors statement.
"Whilst there are many difficult considerations with regards to the matter, we believe that this is solely a matter for the club and we are confident that they will make the right decision in all of the circumstances.
"Whatever the outcome we are and will remain proud sponsors of the club going forward."
