  1. He is CLUELESS!!!!!

     

    What person in the right mind takes off Chris Taylor who ran riot all game and Pawel Abbott who is our top goalscorer when we're 1-0 down and playing well?!?!?!!

     

    Is this man for real?

    Taylor and abbot were both dead on there feet, he brought on like for like dont really see an issue, seems like any exscuse for penney bashing

  2. I don't think I would ever consider bringing Worthington on, especially when :censored: is there as well. Penney made the right substitions, just a little surprised by the order as we had no width for a few minutes with both Eaves and Abbott and no Taylor until Colbeck came on.

    just thought furman faded badly in the 2nd half, i didnt realise :censored: was on the bench until he came on i was still convinced it was smalley until the PA announced it

  3. agree completely. when lee went off lomax started warming up and i thought the worst but he actually went for it and tried gettin the goal instead of goin defensive. one or two of the subs were questionable although the right players came on just at the wrong time. but we went for it and got caught on the break cant complain at that and can't complain with the performance. more of the same and we might just have a chance

    the away following was 598, yes wasn't sure about taking abbot off but to be fair he did look knackered, the only change i would have made earlier was perhaps to bring worthington for furman (just to see if he performed against is old club) but no real criticism of penney tonight and also will say despite the low turnout i thought our fans were great,

  4. Think I heard in the background on Latics World that there was 659 Latics there. Not sure what the total was.

    Think it was 589, really cant fault that performance tonight full of effort, we actually had a go at them and made them look second best, well done to penney for trying a new formation and putting players in there correct position!!!! I can accept defeat when we put in 90 minutes of graft, just wish we had been doing that every game this season.

  5. I thought Abbott was brilliant first half. Gregan excellent again. Credit to Lee too. I also thought Taylor looked more of a threat, but DP really needs to let the full backs overlap occasionally.

     

    Stephens for his dead ball delivery, control of the midfield and goal gets it for me though.

    Dale Stephens for me the one player that as shown massive signs of improvement this season and scored a great goal tonight.

  6. Its not the result that bothered me tonight, its is baffling substitutions and lack of plan b from penney, lomax (why is he not starting??) for furman who had a average game, this allowed :censored: who was abysmal to go into midfield were he continued to be abysmal, then eaves brought on, good i thought 3 up front but know he takes abbot off our only goal scoring threat in 2010, we never once pushed our midfield forward, in the last 5 minutes colbeck put a dangerous cross in and :censored: was on the half way line and stephens 10 yards in front of him. I am losing faith with him by the minute and struggling to see where we will get enough goals from to keep us up.

  7. Agree with the comments from people that went yesterday.

    Smalley is really disappointing and Parker a waste of space.Substitutions left me a bit baffled.

    It was never going to be a classic but we got the win.Most of the fans showed patience and got behind the team except the knobs at the back singing die Penney die.........Whats that all about ?

     

     

    Cant see a problem with the subs, taylor for the anonymous (again) whittaker, :censored: for stephens (he was one rash tackle from being sent off and was perhaps lucky not to go a minute before he was subbed) and abbott for parker (abbott was dead on his feet admittedly parker his not up to much but our forward choices are a bit limited).

    As for the tools who watched the game at the back(they don’t deserve to be called supporters) they should have been thrown out it not really worth criticising them much on here as i doubt they are capable of operating a keyboard and mouse to get on this site.

     

  8. Want to hear them loud and clear on Saturday please.

     

    Others include:

     

    ARE YOU LISTENING TTA ARE (tune of you are you watching)

     

    YOUR :censored: AND YOUR TAKING US DOWN (directed at the team bar :censored:)

     

    PENNEY OUT etc

     

    Anything pro Andy Ritchie.

    Where are you sitting on Saturday? I just want to make sure i am as far away as possible from you at 3pm.

  9. Well, there is nothing happening at our club...is there?

     

    It's a bit 'damned if you do, damned if you don't'. The official site has to be seen to be doing something in the wake of Ackey's departure...least they could do, is put up a report of the Reserve's match. Then again, there probably wasn't anybody there to watch it.

    The reserves are playing tonight...they could make it up though Radio Manchester reported on monday morning that Rochdale Hornets won the Law Cup on Sunday beating Oldham 26-20 the match was actually called off and is taking place tonight.

  10. Went into Stockport at 8.30 this morning.

     

    Because of traffic, I parked on the car park about 100 yards from E.P. With the heavy rain it was like a skid pan.

     

    Within 5 minutes, I saw 5 different people slip on their backsides, and this was crossing the main A6 by the Town Hall.

     

    If it thaws enough, I thinks the pitch will be waterlogged - not looking good

    it wont be waterlogged, the pitch has covers on, i believe the problem was that the covers were frozen to the pitch.

  11. I know the points about Kingsway are on here in a joking sense, but perhaps it's a good time to point out Alan Hardy's comments about Football League rules.

     

    Basically a club can not move outside it's metropolitan boundary, and as Rochdale already has a football club, the league would never alow another club to relocate on their "patch".

    wouldn't that mean manchester united are breaking the rules?
