Lee Andrews was a loan signing by Dale manager Paul Simpson towards the back end of the 2002-3 season. He joined Dale on a month's loan from Carlisle United having struggled to break into their first team during that season. He came to Spotland with a decent pedigree having won the Carlisle United Player of the Season award during 2001-2 as an 18 year old, but following an injury had fallen out of favour with Carlisle boss Roddy Collins, and had found first team opportunities limited as a result.

He made his debut for Dale as right wing back in our first ever win at Leyton Orient, but he soon reverted to a more comfortable position on the right hand side of a central defensive back three in his next game. He made a total of eight games for Dale, the last of which came in our 3-3 draw with Rushden & Diamonds. After a slow start, he was praised for his pace and being comfortable on the ball, though he did give away a couple of penalties during his brief spell at Spotland.

Despite talk from the North of a £25,000 permanent transfer to Spotland, he returned to Carlisle United at the end of his month at Rochdale.

Farke accepts Leeds have more to do after draw at Sunderland
Leeds can be delighted with the second half performance at Sunderland, which should really have earned us all three points, but Daniel Farke knows we will have to keep this run going before we can start to think about being safe from relegation.
Sunderland Awaydaze
Our game at Sunderland kicks off on Sunday at 2pm, thanks to yet another Sky Sports selection. You'll find the Stadium of Light on the site of the former Monkwearmouth Colliery on the north bank of the River Wear, the opposite side from the city centre.

Opinion: Brentford set example Leeds United would do well to follow
Sunday’s opponents Brentford are one of the best-run clubs in the country. They haven’t sacked a manager in more than ten years. We’d be wise to think on that before telling Daniel Farke to piss off.
