Snookmeister

Ernie Cooksey at a petrol station on the way back from Grimsby after the 3-3 draw where he scored that screamer a few years ago. He was chatting to all the tics in the queue whilst waiting to pay. He was made up with his goal. Such a humble fella. It's all been said a million times already, but what a thoroughly nice guy.

If all your tracks are still on your ipod, you can transfer them back onto your itunes by either enabling your pod as a hard drive or by using one of the many ipod to itunes software packages. Go to the support section of the apple site and choose the appropriate forum, there you will find the answers to your problems..... I only know this because that'w what I've been doing today. Apart from "working" from home of course......

Agreed. The 4-5-1 didn't work at all. It didn't work in pre-season, and didn't work tonight. O'Grady did a lot of running, but was out-muscled by the Burnley back line. As was our midfield for most of the game. They seemed to be able to knock us off the ball at will. And when we did get the ball out wide, it was wasted time and time again. The main culprit being Eardley. He couldn't cross his legs tonight - reminded me of Griffin - and his general distribution was awful. £3m??? You're having a laugh. Maher didn't do much, and Whits was kept on top of. Same for The Rat. We looked a little better second half, and Alice looked sharp when he came on, nearly scored too but for a smart save by their keeper. Hughesy didn't do much for the time he was on and neither did Lee. Taylor looked like our only real outlet, made a few good runs, but, unfortunately, they all came to very little. A bad day at the office today as far as I'm concerned, against a decent side. They didn't look to even break a sweat. Hey ho. Back to the league and back to 4-4-2

On the basis of tonight's performance by him, it might be a name that sticks.....

I've changed my mind! Thank god for the changing face of football!!!!

I'm not singularly saying ban instruments and you've got no atmosphere, it's all part of the whole package of changes thats been occurring in football for some time now. As you've said, it all started with the abolition of terracing, TV issues etc, but is going right down to smaller issues like a bloke making some noise. Not my cup of tea, granted, neither is Josh and his infamous drum, but it's the principle of it all that hacks me right off.

Just seen on Sky Sports News, John PFC Westwood, the Pompey bell ringer, has had his bell and bugle banned!!!! They had him on the phone, and he basically said what a lot of people on here are saying: that the fans who want to make some noise and create an atmosphere are being forced out of the game. It's such bollocks. It won't be long before every ground in the country is completely sterile. Oh, and that should read Josh's drum....

Got a new Vista laptop and everytime I try to watch the match highlights on LW, it tells me "a component of Media player needs to be upgraded" Whenever it starts to download, it then tells me it can't be upgraded. It's Media player 11. I've sent PTV an email, but I'm not holding my breath. Any ideas?? P.S. The only resaon I mention Vista is that on the PTV tech help section, it deosn't mention vista at all in the list of compatible OS.

He lost his man for both Georgia's goals. Didn't do himself any favours there.....

Ohhhhh Joooohnny Eyreeeeee.......

Great work there my friend. Particularly like the centre stripe ones. Might even buy the pink one for the Mrs!!! Now send them off to Carlotti and you could have a job offer on yer hands!!

The bottom line, as we all know, is that it's no different from anywhere else really, there's places you go and places you don't. The Dog & Partridge is usually good for overdressed gash on a weekend. Let's hope it's the same on a Tuesday!! More in blind hope than expectation........

This thread hasn't quite gone the way I intended!! But then I suppose it's my own fault for mentioned alleged firearms incidents!! I'll probably do the usual town centre boozers then maybe go up to the D&P or the E&C for a few more looseners.....get the ole vocal chords in shape for a zigga zagga or two!!

Take a bow GMP.....

I know what you mean. I was talking to a Bolton supporting pal of mine earlier this week. He said when Dale played the Trotters a few weeks ago in a pre-saeson friendly, both Dale and Bolton's yoofs were going at it all day!!! He also said a lad he knew went into the Woolpack (top of Drake st, near MFI) and got a shotgun pulled on him!!!!! Serves him right for going into one of the roughest pubs in the North West though!!!

Should be. All being equal!!

Who's drinking in Rochdale pre match and where? Me, I'll be finishing work about 3, getting into the war zone for about 4.30 ish and getting on it!! Not quite decided which of the many fine hostelries(!) yet though.....

Pervy joking aside, that's a quality looking kit. Why the hell can't we get a decent shirt manufacturer if the likes of Linfield and Rochdale can, why can't we????

One of the club's main sponsors is a company which supplies electronic security and the club gets turned over yet again............................... I'll be happy to give them some advice if they don't mind me stepping on the toes of Detect All!!!!!

I'm not THAT zigga zagga starter, but mine are louder!! I'll be in there next season! edit: the RRE that is....

How much cheaper?? (wince...)

I picked one up about six months ago. Brand new Altea FR TDI. 0-60 in 8.2 whilst returning 45mpg!! Great 17" rims, bluetooth and ipod preparation!!! David Cook in chad are top lads............

Went there myself tonight with the brother in law and a mate who are both Dale fans. I always try to get to 4 or 5 games at Spotland every season when Latics aren't playing or are away long haul. I must say I was pleasantly impressed with the whole evening!! Dale were on top 1st half without creating too much, but how County missed that scramble at the Sandy end I'll never know. Nailed on pen for handball, don't think the ref could see it, but the liner should have given it. County actually looked quite solid at the back. 2nd half a different story. County looked ragged and that #11 Rundle deservedly won MOM. Wasn't too impressed with Perkins, got bullied off the ball for County's first. And how gay does he look????? Bleached white hair, white boots, tights and about 4 foot nothing!!!! Thought he was a dancer when he was warming up pre-game!!! Quality move for Dale's third, just as you thought County might get back into it, then strolled it until the final whistle. Thoroughly enjoyed the evening. How it makes a big difference to watch a game in a positive atmosphere as opposed to all the bitching we've had to endure (and sometimes contributed to!!) at BP this season. Obviously it makes a difference when you've won so many on the bounce and lookin good for at least a play off place, but still, it made a pleasant change. Great pies (smothered in mushy peas!!), a pint in a glass, a decent DJ , and only £15 to get in. Superb value for money. TTA take note. I'll definately go again before the end of the season. Oops, nearly forgot, Butcher was pants!!!!

He was in his element........

I'd go watch The Dale. Most local for me. But I don't think I could ever be a "fan" though. Just a casual supporter.
