Great win.
Straight at them from the start and first goal more than deserved. They held us a bit in check until Manny D boomed that header in. The only chance they had all half was the direct free kick really well saved by Whatmuff .
Second half was fairly even until a mis-placed pass gave Manny plenty to do, but boy did he do it and sat the keeper down with his finish.
BW have evident pace and it was a great through ball for their pen, well despatched too.
Not to worry, we have a striker who knows where to run and can certainly finish, glad after he had the one disallowed.
Manny D playing 60+ minutes is a massive boost, he gives us that edge up front that we haven’t per se missed, but greatly welcome back.
Thought Bush (5) for them was quality despite scoreline, can see why Rush scores, fast and makes good runs. Abdulmalik has darned good feet.
Powerful performance with 5 subs used as seems to be standard now, rotate as we go. |

Eng U19s just beat Aus in the WC semi final.
Ashes lite. |

Rest Eels at your peril.
Matty Rush is a proper threat. [Post edited 3 Feb 11:15]

Transfer window for big boys about to close. Read somewhere that clubs more likely to do loans at this point once they know exact position. |

We can’t control what York do.
York can’t control what Dale do.
We should simply enjoy what has been the most successful season results to date and see where it takes us, be that 1st, 2nd…or 7th. |

Two further questions from me, sorry TVOS but it is Q&A time it seems.
Is the 10 yellow/37 game rule against club games played rather than player?
What is/was the game quota for 5 yellows please?
Cheers |

1. Totally get opposition manager to change team
2. Score from 2 chances and defend like trojans
3. Possess the most lethal attack in the division (and many teams in division above too)
4. Get opposition to play home game away. Then blitz them.
These are the ‘tactics’ chosen by opposition managers to beat Dale so far, it’s not surprising that others are trying the Halifax tactic really, and for 94 minutes it nearly worked. |

Would fate have it any other way?
Kudos to any Southend fans making the trip up for the game. Aside from knocking us out of the playoffs and basically being French, I’ve developed a liking for their teams ability to mix it with the best and be inexplicably average against lesser teams. |

It has the hallmarks of that year too, York in the role of Notts C and Borehamwood as Bournemouth |

Southend next up.
We know what they will do, we’ve seen what they did to us in the playoffs, in the rain game, as they did against York.
They will come out of the blocks, press as a team, hustle as a team, put us under pressure.
Gilmour/East beware, a ball into your feet from Whatmuff will have someone all over your back every time. Every time.
Big Jim has got so much right this season learning from the past its remarkable and massive credit to him and management team for that.
I hope he preps the lads for Southend with lessons from the past too. |

Wonder if Truro will be travelling on the day.
Long way of course for them and their fans to sit in a 3’200 seater stand.
They are notably stronger at home than away but no chickens counted on any of the remaining 22 games. |

Crawley no footwork and naff all
Brook out stumped by a mile
It’s remarkably unremarkable. |

Anybody with Morecambe left to play should be more afraid than playing the top six, as their squad is better than Dale’s according to Solihull manager. |

U block will have a job to do. Lots of tough opposition to play, will no doubt be times when the team need picking up (not oppo fans insulted) in games.
Noise at away games has been awesome and you can see the appreciation from the players.
Keep it up youngsters! |

Solihull had one header that i remember and that was about it.
They obviously opted for the ‘defend’ button pre-match and first half was played pretty much in their half despite us playing into the wind.
They had a bit of play early in second half as our passes seemed to go 90 yards down wind. Subs changed that and we began to dominate again.
Hendo, East, Bilongo all going close before the most beautiful shot into the far corner you could ever wish to see. Pritch did look up before he shot, only it was a second or so earlier when he will have clocked where the keeper was.
Solihull didn’t get the Southend memo that says ‘if your best strength is attack, then attack’ |
