I must admit I don't like the look of the team Fax are putting out and think we may struggle. I hate backing against my own team but if the bookies offer Rochdale about 14+ I'm going to be tempted.

Thanks, will try the real ale pub.

Not a hope in hell that i'll be travelling over there today, off to visit the beautiful first granchild that son No.1 & his lovely partner have presented us with this week, also adding to the day in Rochdull distractions on tv is the Monaco GP, the RU Heineken cup final & failing all that i can look at blue moon & white coloured empty seats on some magic weekend tv extravaganza. Yesterday i was smart enough to switch tv channels at teatime to watch one of the greatest F.A. cup finals in memory. The wife says i can do some gardening but it looks like rain again to me, it threatened to pour it down all of yesterday afternoon so i watched the tv after a hard morning at work, she told me there was something she wanted to watch on the tele but i can't remember what it was so we continued with the sporting theme....

Dale 18 Fax 28. I'll be there.

Nice sunny pitch. This is the fast track Karl keeps saying we need. Need to put in a good show today.

22 nil at half time. 4 kicks missed by Tyrer.

Sunny Pitch



, Charlie had faith , no surprises from todays results ,Ce Plane Moi Mour as Plastic Bertrand used to say .

Hardly any ball in the 2nd half, but a shame we conceded two late tries (albeit the last one was probably the best try of the game). Game won at half-time, and much better to see Karl standing on the touch-line for the whole game. Great turn-out from the Fax fans as well.

Excellent first half, lost our way in the second. Apart from Leigh no one is getting their own way this season. Fev challenged well by Worky at home. I think good things will come off Johnston but we just need to be a bit cleverer on the last phase of attack.

Couldn't go today because I was playing away at Sheffield but just wanted to know how we played on a quicker pitch in the sunshine?

Didn't go today but did expect us to struggle TBH. More concerned at the big HT lead not being built on. Did we not play for 80 mins again?
