steviestevieneville Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 One of them was blaming Clarke for not signing any quality. Geoff correctly pointed out it needs to be sanctioned by the board which wasn’t done. Still don’t get it some of them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wendyredredrobin Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 L1 looking a bit sick this morning, whilst we are still in a playoff place in the chàmp. No shame in losing to Leeds when we had 5 key players out, but losing to Rochdale, I ask you, especially after being drubbed 4 0 wy the shrews last week. How they must envy the atmosphere of a 24k+ crowd in a stadium against an 8k crowd housed in tents and tin huts. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got taught a lesson and Leeds deserved the points . Very tough league and also shows perhaps our bench isn’t as strong as we all thought . Never mind, bad day at the office . looking forward to Sunderland next week and a night on the piss in Newcastle .COYR I agreed that you guys could put a few past us, on our current form we looked so vulnerable at the back and toothless up top, think the difference was the Leeds who turned up yesterday was the Leeds from the first games, not the last few, totally different beast.

You did to us what we’ve been doing , pressing high up the pitch , winning the ball back quickly etc. Yes we had 4 important players missing but every team will go through that during a season. Edit.

We play Leeds the day before....it would be brill to hear that chant again, it used to roar out of the 'proper' East End - let's recognise that stupendous day and the amazing role our very own Colin Lee played in their embarrassment in front of the nation! I couldn't care less that he played zero games for us, he was on our books and he scored four against the gas.

Jack Dawe Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 1 hour ago, Kid in the Riot said: 300 for a Saturday game near Manchester is ******* shit. I don't agree with that, Kid. I think that for a L1 game, that's pretty normal. I think, for them, that's normal, ok. Not great, not sh1t, just normal. Unremarkable. For Rovers, after three successive years of winning and improving their league standing within the pyramid (after a humbling and humiliating low in the Banana league) and a gathering "we're coming for you" head of steam groupthink feverish enthusiasm, with some good and sometimes very good away turnouts they very selectively (and understandably) highlighted and trumpeted, and used to compare with ours (minus all relevant and crucial context), things over there are likely going to level out a bit now, as the exciting novelty and new-grounds-not-visited-for-a-generation giddy excitement of - for them - the wonder that is League One, wears off a tad. Along with the wins. And the "coming for you." Their numbers, inevitably, will go back to something more "normal," for them, back to the levels their away support was at when they weren't very selectively comparing their away numbers with ours because there were few if any that - viewed without context (ie, Wolves, number of times played there respectively/novelty value/ground to be ticked off, league game v knockout cup tie, respective record at said bloody ground, price of tickets, history of fans being kicked to sh1t on the ground between rival firms, or not, etc etc, as you already know) - showed them in a good light compared to us. In the time of Steve Lansdown, we have had more years of second tier football than they have had third tier football (to get a similar level of "buzz" and enthusiasm to them finishing top half in L1 last season, we'd have to reach another Championship play-off final or something). With another season of midtable frustration/mediocrity and poor away results for them in an increasingly familiar and decreasingly novel standard of football, it will be no surprise if - Blackburn away aside, say (whom, like Wolves, they haven't visited for 25 years) - they see, like Saturday, a "normalising" of this mythologised support. Interestingly, they tweeted the numbers last Tues at Shrewsbury, but not Saturday at Rochdale. Selective tweeting! I can remember the days when they struggled to fill the one third of the old Open End for Bristol derbies - which changed when they went about 4 years and 10 derby games unbeaten. Funny that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weepywall Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 I did hear from a gas head "mate" that Rochdale police didn't have any horses on duty on Saturday so I would imagine that stopped quite a few travelling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
