We're stuck for choice !!!!

If you count loan players then in goal Matt Dickins goalkeeper (all 6 foot 4 inches of him) from Blackburn Rovers in 1994 would be worth a shout

Kevin Pilkington. Still on the bench for Notts County.

From the original post, Arthur, Brown and Coleman weren't terrible.

Durkan was gash when he came to us, if that helps with poor wingers.

How has Brown got into these teams? Can't remember him being particularly bad, is it just because people can't think of RBs?

TBF to Elding, if it weren't for him, we wouldn't have one of the most special goals in our history.

And hence we wouldn't have this



Elding.....JOOOONES....ROCHDALE HAVE DONE IT AGAIN

Yeah I struggled at right back probably the one position we've always had a decent player. Evans was there for so long and hardly missed a game. I think Brown actually played more games at RM than RB he always tried hard and could play but was just to small. As for wingers I did think of Durkan maybe McConville more recently and Bertos was terrible in his second season but for every winger I thought of I could think of a striker that was ten times worse haha.

Anyone think of a bad right back?

Tbf brown wasn't bad it was just that he was 3ft 2 and at the time league 2 teams tended to play more direct

Simon Copeland was far and away our worst right-back for those that remember him.

Got to be honourable mentions also for John Pender, Andy Morris and plenty of others from the Barrow era. Speaking of which surely Mark Bailey would have to be captain.

Reminds me of EGP days, oh what fodder we had available. Wouldn't like to write it this season however!

Almost certain Jason Lydiate coaches one of our kids teams nowadays.

Anyway, my first attempt (could name more than one side)


Dickins

Goodhind, Boardman, Trotman, Simpkins

Durkan, McClare, Brisco, Donovan

Leonard, Buggie

If I hadn't seen such riches, I could live with being poor

To be fair he did scold his gash when he spilled a kettle full of hot water on it.

Arthur could catch a ball but had no agility whatsoever and simon coleman was the original 50p head

Surprised MBH hasn't been mentioned - he'd at least make the bench.

Did Arthur Brown Coleman play for us in the 1920s?

When I was your age, I used to enjoy the odd game of tennis. Or was it golf?

Wasn't Lance Key prosecuted by Trading Standards for describing himself as a goalkeeper ?

John Pender a shocking omission IMO

I presume that's Andy Farrell and not Peter ?? Any worst XI Dale side should certainly have Alan Young, Richard Sharpe, Pim Balkestein, Jason Anders and Les Strong in there.

Yep. I remember one of his few supporters arguing that as he scored the odd goal, Farrell was well worth his place in Barrow's team of defenders.
