The only result possible on a day like today was a WIN!!
The lads, including all the new ones with little first team experience have done us proud

Special Agent Odoh finishes the job, really great game by the lad.
Between him and Newby we have great attacking on both flanks.
I personally think we were unlucky to lose at Harrogate, better team versus Scunny and FGR scored with their first attack after 30+ minutes (but were very good second half admittredly)
We've a decent team individually and the team play is coming collectively. | |

I'm sat watching the forum, the BBC text commentary, BT Sports Live and expecting a Northampton equaliser..
The screen turns blue...
It's the Dale!!!!!!!!! | |

There’s a chance we could go as high as third on Friday...
So pleased for Stockdale. You could see how the changes he’s made were with the intention of making us far more effective and actually forcing the other team to defend in their own area more, but he needed a win to illustrate it. Today was massive.
Interesting stat after Tuesday to back that up:

Off to the Star shortly to toast independence and Robbie's first win with Dale. Today has been a good day. I suppose you could even call it memorable | |

Thinking exactly the same thing!
Excellent result and welcome first win, especially as it comes off the back of the EFL news.

Any thoughts that the EFL statement this morning has affected the playing staff? | | | |

Thoroughly deserved in the end. Hopefully gets some confidence into the lads. It was great to see Keohane back and I thought he made a big difference. Still players to come back and once we get a settled team we will be fine. Andrews & Odoh both took their goals really well.
What a day, Up the Dale. | | | |

I'm a London based Dale fan and I got the train up to Northampton. Was feeling lazy so I caught a bus up to the ground. Two MASSIVE Carlsberg trucks drive past as I was waiting. It was a sign!!!
Superb day. First time I've seen us under Stockdale and I must say I was impressed. We grew into the game steadily but securely, and we defended pretty well and with increasing confidence as the game went on. It really didn't feel too tense as we went into added on time. MoM for me was Keohane despite only playing half the game, but I was impressed with several of our lads including O'Keefe and Lynch.
The manager must be delighted as we looked like a team implementing things we've worked on in training, and we got stronger as the game went on. This win will give the players and staff some much needed confidence. And with the off field events too...what a great day for the club.
Downsides: I walked back to the station, got soaked and my train was cancelled 😂 Having a celebratory scoop in the dry. UP THE DALE! | | | |

How did Andrews and Dorsett play? I must admit I never expected the result and watching the scores come up, I expected to see the Dale concede a goal. When it went to 3-1 I was so relieved.
Today as been a good day to be a Dale fan. | | | |

Not great IMO. Dorsett looked a bit nervy and played a very poor back pass to Lynch which was almost costly not long after coming on. TBF to him I don’t think the plan was for him to play today having just come in. Andrews showed he can certainly finish but his all round game looks lacking to me, though not sure he is yet fully fit. I think they will both improve ðŸ‘🼠| | | |

Is there not some sort of record here: 3 players, each scoring his first league goal in the same game for Dale ... ? | | | |
| Match Thread: Northampton vs Dale on 18:30 - Aug 21 with 2822 views | Salegraham |
He scores when he wants (Andrew's) | | | |
| Match Thread: Northampton vs Dale on 18:31 - Aug 21 with 2805 views | boromat |
TBF I think Dorsett probably met the players today  | |

That line about his half time reaction is bloody funny. | |

Northampton manager has said our second goal was definitely not offside:
https://www.ntfc.co.uk/news/2021/august/reaction_h_21222/
He also said elsewhere that from what he had seen of us before the game that he thought we were a good team. He added that our formation was difficult to play against as well in his post match comments with local radio - I cant remember the exact words and don't have a link. | | | |

More importantly, how good are the blackout shorts? | | | |
| Match Thread: Northampton vs Dale on 19:16 - Aug 21 with 2503 views | 442Dale |
Believe they are the alternative shorts for the FL centenary kit which has white-out shorts and plain black socks. Today’s socks were the home alternative socks (note the trim is the same as the white versions), so you have to wonder where the alternative black home shorts are with the same design as the first choice white were.
Well, I certainly do. | |
