Jones nominated for prestigious award
Dale captain Gary Jones has been nominated for the League Two North West Footballer of the Year award and its your votes which could see him secure this award.
It's been a great year for Jonah. He broke the club's all time appearances record, the league appearances record, led the side out at Wembley and finished the season clutching a whole host of Player of the Season awards.
And as such, it was no surprise to see that he was Dale's nominated player for the North West Footballer of the Year.
The full list of nominated League Two players that he is up against are:
- Danny Adams - Morecambe
- Gary Jones - Rochdale
- Paul Linwood - Chester City
- Paul Mullin - Accrington
- Paul Scott - Bury
- Danny Thomas - Macclesfield Town
Obviously, we at RochdaleAFC.com believe Jonah would be a very worthwhile winner of this award, so we suggest you cast your vote, get your friends/family/pets to vote, start up "Jones for North West whatever...." face book groups, whatever it takes..... let's make Jonah the winner.

Gwyn’s Eye View : Swansea City v MillwallGlyn is back with his favourite stats as we build up to the last game of the season. That comes in the form of Millwall who it seems are close to selling their requested 1,148 allocation, so its down to the Jack Army to do their bit this bank holiday weekend.
The fate today’s Swansea footballers would never have to endure Swansea City bring this season to a close on Saturday with a home game against Millwall. However, what about those bygone days when footballers had no choice but to go down the pit after their career ended, or open a toy shop, pub or retrain ? That thought would petrify todays modern footballer.
Brave Swans in memorable game at Carrow Road It was a pulsating game to watch and very much one of my favourite away games of the season. The Swans looked an entirely different side to that we saw at Middlesbrough when it is clear a catalyst for commitment was agreed behind the scenes at Swansea City. To a man every player grafted and
wore the shirt with pride. To see the players really acknowledge the Swans support at Carrow Road this afternoon was emotional.
