perhaps they just need a coach who can get the best out of the players they have. someone who is not seemingly constantly telling them they are not good enough. man management!

If he wants to walk away,just do it. Though I have to say that some of what he said there,I agree with

He's at our game tomorrow night too. :d

Is he allowed this far on a week night?

John Stankevitch - "This is something I don't say lightly"

Despite it being the second time he's said it in about 3 months!

Someone ought to tell him that if you make empty threats so often your embarrassing yourself. As has been said earlier if he's gonna quit he should just do it and if not he shouldn't threaten it and not back it up. If I was Chairman at Rochdale I wouldn't be keeping him on for next year regardless of how the season ends. Its disrespectful for him constantly to be announcing he has one foot out the door.

I agree. Rochdale could find themselves in a very uncomfortable position next season (I for one am incredibly relieved that the Dons won't be in next season's Championship One). The last thing they need is a Coach who's head is all over the place and who's heart simply isn't in it.

He'll not relish all that travelling again next season anyway.

This was his excuse apparently..

Anyway on a purely selfish level I hope that Rochdale get promoted.
Because I would sooner go to Rochdale than Whitehaven.
Come on Stanky!



Rochdale are at home to Whitehaven on Sunday ...spooky!


If Dale can deny Whitehaven a bonus point, they go above them and Stanky would be re-energised!

thats a big if though.im expecting haven to return from spotland with 3 points intact.a trip to whitehaven is alot nicer than one to rochdale surely.

It only takes a third of the time to get there though
