The Sinclair C5? Barings Bank? Ratners Jewellers? It's hard to tell which is the biggest financial disaster - those or the signing of Warren Goodhind.

| Goodhind was recently voted as one of our worst right backs in the history of the club, and its difficult to point to any positives to his time with Dale, other than it is finally over. Signed on a free transfer following Cambridge's relegation from the Football League, he came with a decent reputation. Indeed, the Cambridge supporters were so taken with Goodhind that they became his kit sponsor not long after he had signed for Dale. However, it soon appeared that this was nothing more than a cruel joke at Dale's expense in the same way that we may sponsor Boardman at some future club of his, as Goodhind proved to be disastrous. It was debatable whether we had more injuries or mistakes from Goodhind, but the fact that he made no more than ten appearances for the club speaks volumes. On a reputed very large wage for a club of our stature and finances, he will have to go down as one of the worst value for money signings in the club's history. |

Against Stoke City Russell martin selected a side that was very much a second string line up, with the play offs looming should the manager repeat this for the trip to take on Leeds on Saturday.
A big big game for just Leeds now, although by Saturday the odds on them going up automatically might have changed slightly so here is all the info for those travelling Saints fans who are still going,
The hope of getting back into the Premier League automatically has long gone, but the season is not yet over and we now have a good chance of getting to Wembley and going up through the play offs, here we look at who we could meet.
This should have been a celebratory day for Saints fans, there should have been a feeling of positivity, but the truth is that the fight has been knocked out of the supporter base and we go into the play offs with confidence both on and off the pitch at a low ebb.
