Not many know the truth about what happened - but many want to speak about it
I was not happy about Grant playing up to get an advantage. I was even less happy when he continued to wink towards me - apparently thinking this is what I had paid to see. I explained I did not like it and he continued to wink and appeared to encourage some of the other Rochdale fans to take it on themselves to have a go at me.
I was thrown to the floor and taken by yellowcoats away. I was not happy about this (I had not done anything) and forced away. Following assessment for head injury, and a cup of tea, I was taken back into the arena (I asked to be escorted back as I had been attacked earlier).
Id read the stuff about him apparently breaking down in front of Knill. I took that as being engineered by Coleman as a way of getting him to leave Scunny. Yesterday showed his potential to be a top class player for us. His finishing was wayward but I can't recall a Dale striker having that many chances since the promotion season.

So being apologetic is unacceptable and having a queue of people wanting to introduce themselves in this manner is all well and good?
What else can I do?
I have apologised to anyone who I may have upset - and stand by that. I do not like cheating and, if I over-reacted then that is what "our player" was trying to do to anyone. He happened to get someone red-carded and myself overly annoyed.
I do not like the theme of what appears to be veiled threats and hope I am not reading too much into them.
He didn't get anyone red carded the dons player swung a punch sent off whether he made contact or not. Learn the rules
I think once his own manager has come out and said he deserved to get sent off, it doesn't sound as if its the first time Midson has done something similar too, we have to say its nothing to do with how grant reacted, course I wasnt at the game, so what do i know.
OK - spotted it second time around. I exited the article very quickly - too depressing. Almost tempted to go to Rotherham now but I suspect our man won't be there.

Sounds like it is numerous voices against 1 to be fair Ricardo.
I was not there but if you have offended people on more than one occasion maybe its time you calmed your emotions a little - or your pre game habits. I would certainly be appologising to the person who's family was offended and upset if it were myself in your position.
Having said that I think its unfair that you have been outed on here - not something I would have done personally, but maybe your actions have led to this if this is one of a number of "incidents" over the years.
Violent conduct is a Red card if it makes contact or not - so Grant did not get Midson sent off - all Grant falling over would have done is ensured that action was taken for violent conduct - and that the ref and linesman spotted it - so in fairness he did nothing wrong - diving for a pen is far worse!!!!!
Every Team Needs A John Ryan - The Winger Who's a Ringer!!!!!

In fairness TR I have apologised on here and would be willing to do so in person.
As far as I can tell that apology has not been accepted.
I do not feel it appropriate to attend at the moment with such negative vibes - and I would not want to be in any way responsible for further upset
