Is this true about Rochdale being better at business than us or a myth? Genuine question. One of my bosses is a Dale fan and he is forever bemoaning their transfer policy as everything is stacked on future payments e.g. sell on %, promotions etc. He gets the feeling Rochdale sell on the cheap in terms of upfront fee with lots of speculative instalments which bump the apparent fee they receive. They do seem to be good at talent spotting though

Not meaning to single you out but I think that's what people base most of their SPL facts on

Nice post - strangely these 2 points summarise why I choose a season ticket in the RRE. I have a choice between the Chaddy and RRE to get the kids season ticket offer to take my boys. I choose the RRE because there is a chance we move for the best games and then when we do we get to swap for a ticket at the side. Given the choice at the same price I wouldn't sit in either, I can't go on Saturday but I would view the move as a bonus. If there is some consideration about the coach incident from last year, and I wouldn't be surprised, then the club should be open about that

Lockwood was awarded MoM, that was funny

Ha! Not entirely related but... Anyway you can expect an upturn in fortune from August, I'm not exactly a lucky omen

I'm emigrating in the summer

That 'open goal' looked like quite a sharp chance, wasn't exactly a sitter. The one on one needed scoring though

You'd like to think so wouldn't you!

I don't think he communicates well to the back 4, if he did Conor Brown doesn't have to chest the ball out which led to the corner where we concede a penalty and red card

If you hear a bang it will be us falling into the basement. Be careful what you wish for!

I was really impressed with him too. Is he really only 17?? Kevin McDonald and Bakary Sako would have to be close

I never buy football shirts but i'd consider buying this

Brilliant - you've just nailed why this forum is so funny

I've no idea, but maybe they think he will need a month to get up to fitness? Can't imagine they've done it just for the hell of it. So are we ignoring Matt Chambers and just going with the lower offer story told by another journalist?

Yes exactly like him! I'm happy we're looking at people who have a point to prove rather than 18 year olds who think they've made it

Sick out of us continually scouting the non-leagues, why can't we give Premier League youth teamers games to develop in

Bloody mercenary

It sounds to me that he's probably got a more slapstick sense of humour, so it's unlikely. But you never know

I really think people the game too seriously, laughing out of embarrassment is a fairly natural reaction, doesn't mean he enjoyed it or intended to do it again

I did chuckle at the lazy tag as he covered back and put in a great challenge to prevent a goal scoring chance, then returned up the other end and nearly created a goal. He was incredible today

Second looked like a foul to me. We certainly gave them plenty of space to play

Well for what I know... I thought Kilmarnock moved the ball round really well and looked good. They lost 3-0 in the end. I also started to say to the guy next to me that Cairney was the slowest, most frustrating player I'd seen, but before I got to say 'but he's good if he gets the ball in space' he'd smashed one in from the edge of the area. We definitely did well to avoid Ryan McGivern though. Awful

This isn't just based on strikers who are too crap to play for us is it? They often seem to go upward after failing with us. Out of interest, when did you last watch a game? I watched Hibs v Kilmarnock over the Christmas period, two mid table sides and the standard was easily as good as League One.

Good to see the whole team backed Rooney to score the penalty seeing as no one followed it in. I'm ready to be shot down but... his miss wasn't exactly the sitter I'd imagined from the forum comments. Sure he should have got it on target but there was still a fair bit to do. Looked a good game

better late than never! I can't see those arrows on my phone
