This team needs all the support it can get and deserves it to help us keep our place.
Surprised to hear some fans being choosy about following Dale at grounds, especially rivals.
Shouting up from the main stand steps, some guy firmly shouts, 'I'll go if it's Accrington!, but not Oldham!"
Bit over top I think. Fkin get behind the lads, home or away. |

Agreed, I thought it was a decent half. We set up so many chances. Someone next to me said, 'If we got points for corners, it would be a cricket score.' |

I think Petit took his first full game well and owned his position. Quality passing, good defense, and vision. I think he deserves his place in the starting 11 on Saturday.
Sitting on the sidelines must have been painful. Benched, waiting for a chance. But if he can now go on and dominate that position, other players will have to up their game. |

Yes, Bobby Grant, a player, easily wound up, fiery character. A favourite of Coleman's, who scored a lot of goals for us under Reign.2012 season, I think. [Post edited 16 Nov 11:49]

I respect what he's done for teams without much finance. Dunno, about the dug out stance though. He parted with Bell due to Bell's personal issue with distance and travel, but he's had a great career working miracles with Accrington in the EFL. I hoped he could do a job when at Dale, but that went abit t1ts up. |

I think John Coleman knows what a Dale team is all about, and had the shots fired up. Pressing hard and putting us under a lot of pressure. Performance is not really that important today, but the win definitely was. |

Looking forward to this encounter, and I would think the squad can't wait to show that we are the best team in the league. No injury doubts reported. Smith's confidence is high, so maybe more exposure and goal chances for him, deffo deserves to be playing against York. Beat York and it's definitely a trip to the offy on a school night.
Pitch is what it is this season. The club has it all in control, doing what they can. Hopefully a dry Thursday up until the weekend. What a great season so far! |

Keeping players from last season has made this team a strong unit, giving us a big advantage over newish teams still evolving and learning.
We've good leadership with Ebanks, Gordon, and Gilmore helping guide the team and maintain cohesion.
Currently great days supporting Dale. |

You would think one player doesn't make a team, but look at us. Without Mani, I think our season would be a different story. |

Strongest side tomorrow. No cautious changes in defence. That would possibly slow down the tempo, using players not up to speed, and causing undue anxiety for fans. I just want to watch the best chance of watching a good game, regardless of the consequences. I want us to have the best chance of being in the next round. |

I would like to see Berkoe start next week he's looked good, quick feet and full of energy.
On the whole though, too slow in the first half getting past the half-way line. Note really using the wings like we did at Carlilse
Thought we definitely missed Ebanks we might have done better defending their goals and threatened more with Rodney starting.
We can't play our best 11 all the time though. Beaten by a resolute defence |

Definitely missing EELs distribution.
I wouldnt say Hogans slowing it down too much, but we are missing that adventure of a decent long pass, for the wingers or forwards to run onto.
Little bit too much of back and forth between our defenders, hopefully the guys are going to have bit more urgency 2nd half. [Post edited 1 Oct 20:44]

If the younger groups are targeted, I think it's a faster way of increasing attendance. Cost is a big factor - a cheaper entry for them. The buzz and lure of the U block energy and going mental. The songs. Rochdale, even being lower league, I'm sure, is possibly becoming fashionable to the younger sections in the town. A few hundred more of them in, and it makes a difference. |

There are more options to watch/listen to the games nowadays on the TV/laptop if it's a cold, dank Tuesday night, instead of attending....For those who finish later at work, have kids, or can't be bothered, there's the TV, internet option. Affecting attendances. |
