I guess Keith Hill does know what he's doing after all, chuffed for Andrew to hopefully prove the doubters wrong, playing alongside top quality as opposed to Georgie will no doubt help.
People should always remember that its evolution not revolution with Hill's team. Whatever happens, there is a plan behind it, and short term reactionary slating of the team should always be ignored in favour of the long term. There will always be the disappointing days, but the big picture is that with Hill in charge, we will always be heading in the right direction.
I think most fans know that there is always method in Hills "madness" Dale fans are a patient bunch, and more importantly, trust Hill to make the right decisions on everything football related, everything is done for the benefit of the club, no ridiculous talks of championship or bust, its a journey that is always meticulously planned months/years in advance.
Hill really wants the Dale youngsters to succeed more than anything else. But as he has said recently, he has to weigh that up against his own career. If the youngsters don't get results it's Keith's balls that are on the block. Then he has to reluctantly sacrifice the youngsters in order to save himself. But with results like that today let's hope he can keep with the young ones and push them higher and higher. It may not be this season but in the next or beyond we see the real fruit of their labours. That will make Keith's day.
Fantastic result today and it can't be a coincidence that Jacks return coincides with two clean sheets. Glad we have strengthened over the last few weeks and with players like Lund, Lillis and Muldoon to come back things look a lot better now regarding holding our own in league one, the performance at Chesterfield left me seriously worried.
Big shout to all those who made the journey down, they where we'll rewarded.
