If anyone remembers this lad we had on loan in 2004 (If I do correctly, I think he was full of running and effort, but missed a sackful!) he’s had quite the career and life since!

Some real blasts from past in that list. Amazing how many ex Dale are amongst that lot on both sides!

What a coincidence!
at 18:31 12 Feb 2022

Did anyone else notice that a few seconds after 30 mins and a few seconds after 70 mins, a Harrogate player went down with “cramp” ?

The goalkeeper going down in the 85th minute was farcical, to say the least. Newby clearly also twigged this after not giving the ball back!

Did Robbie comment on this when we last played them? Or was it another team doing similar?

Glad the referee added 6 mins, but ultimately the equaliser was vindication!

Never have I felt so little emotion from a late equaliser.

Passing accuracy was abysmal.
Far too many passengers in the team.
Dorsett is awful, he has no awareness and can’t pass for toffee.
Midfield was non existent. The tactic of Morley passing it to Kelly and trying to attack down the left side failed time after time.
Substitutions were bizarre and it was completely predictable that we would wait for them to score.
Stockdale may as well not be there on the touch line, he offers nothing.
Officials were poor. Bottled 2 red cards and some of the yellow cards made no sense.

Credit to O’Connell and Done for at least trying.

Another result that papers over the cracks.

The BBM love in.
at 14:19 24 Jul 2021

I really wish we’d stop this BBM love in, not so much on here, but on Twitter.

Yep, kept us up, but then stayed up on a technicality before succumbing to the inevitable. The man was clearly out of his depth as a first team manager.

He applied for the City job last summer and apparently applied for another job with a rival during the season. He then applies for the City job again this year, gets it, tries to get us to pay him up and then leaves for nothing to the richest club in the world. How an earth have we not got anything out of this? It stinks!

I don’t actually believe BBM is the snake he is coming across as - blame his other half and the circles I imagine she mixes in.

Good riddance!!

Both parts are a great listen, but frustratingly he only talks about his time with us for about 10 mins.

I think it’s from about 55 mins in the second part. I challenge you to listen to him without getting watery eyes, talks about Joey T coming back and builds up to the Charlton game. Thought he might mention the Spurs game or have some Keith stories, but he doesn’t.

Fat lad Parkin annoys me just after the Dale bit when Davies talks about playing for Hamilton and goes “How small are they? Smaller than Rochdale?” F off!

Poor Management.
at 21:11 27 Apr 2021

I’m sorry, but BBM lost us 2 points tonight.

Why were we not making a sub every 2 mins to waste time in the last 6 mins?

Why did we not put Humps or Lund at the back?

Why did Baah come on in the 6th minute of 6 minutes added time?

Beesley was clearly knackered. Why did he not come off?

Players gave everything. Jim is a liability. Lynch had superglue on his feet and was stuck to the line everytime a ball went in the area but redeemed himself with the penalty. The Conor’s both looked handy.

We need some decent defenders that stay fit, but otherwise i think we’ve got half a chance next season.

It’s time

No spark or creativity on the pitch or sidelines (Humphrys tries... too hard)

Baah looks like a completely different player in just a few months - very ordinary.

Key players missing but we persist with this style of football that just doesn’t work for this set of players. There is no plan B. We’ve got 8/9 very defence minded players who started this game and these tactics don’t work.

We haven’t scored a goal or won a game for god knows how long.

The players look dejected and just going through the motions.

We aren’t out of it yet, but if we are serious about staying in this division we need to make a change now, a big personality, lift the players and simplify the football. Squeeze out a few 1-0s and stay up.

I really hate to say it, because he really is a lovely bloke and he’s trying to do things the right way... but it’s not working and he can’t see it.... BBM out.

I see on his Instagram that he is out in Dubai training... I’d love us to try and sign him for the season to get his career back on track.... worked for him last time and I assume BBM still has his number!

Although the circumstances behind his departure from Cardiff were mysterious, but given he is abroad, he must still have his passport!
