I'd be very surprised
The 330 suffers greatly with reliability even off peak so extending it to Oldham would only make it worse. Plus is there really a big enough demand for it? I live on the 409 route just outside Ashton an it's very rare to see a packed 409 these days. Yes in the morning and afternoon peak school kids and college pupils make some journeys look busy but off peak most buses are only half full.

There seems to be a lot of rumours banded about at the moment by the 'bus wars' brigade who think an all out war between First and Stagecoach is iminent but ill believe it when I see it.
