While we might not all have worded it like that, you can see the point. We’re starting one of our ‘youth team’ the rest are players in and around the first team including some loanees. It’s no different to a reserve game of old, except it’s against Blackburn’s u21s rather than their reserves.
It’s a stupid idea for a competition and the club shouldn’t have entered it. But as we have there’s no criticism for anyone attending from me, but can definitely understand the annoyance at why such a game is taking place. | |

Tried to register using 2 different addresses. Requested verification code but it has failed for both addresses. So given up. | | | |

Remember Scouts might turn up to see our youth team… remember R Luke?? | |

Except we are only playing Edwards from the start. The scouts would be more likely to be watching them in the youth games.
It’s a game of football, but one played in a stupid competition that shouldn’t exist. | |

Watching it, poor picture due to fog hard to see | | | |

426 in attendance apparently. | |

People are entitled to say why they disagree with it. If not, it’ll be seen as acceptable as a competition.
One of my main gripes is that we are risking setting a new low for an attendance for a competitive first team fixture. That’s an unwanted and unnecessary ‘record’. | |

Bad enough for lino to miss an offside goal for Brovers. | | | |
| Tonight’s Match… on 19:44 - Nov 5 with 7060 views | 442Dale |
Which, if correct, is lower than the infamous Cambridge game in 1974.
Unless there’s another. | |

Did I read somewhere that entry is free for the game against Manchester United later in this competition? That might boost the attendance? | | | |
| Tonight’s Match… on 19:58 - Nov 5 with 6917 views | 442Dale |
Yeah and they’re giving out tickets to schools and community groups which is a good idea. That should see a better crowd with it also being United.
The Wolves one in the first week in January could see half as many as tonight unless that’s free, with a pie and a 20 minute sub appearance for everyone who brings boots. | |

The camera also needs wiping, there's a dull patch in the middle of it and it's definitely not a isolated patch of fog. It's more noticeable at half time. | | | |
| Tonight’s Match… on 20:08 - Nov 5 with 6817 views | D_Alien |
I hate to think what the camera's being used for between games... | |
| |

Particularly tinpot as the NL TV messaged asking for the lens to be wiped. 2-1 to Dale | | | |
| Tonight’s Match… on 20:13 - Nov 5 with 6732 views | TalkingSutty |
Somebody must have found a hanky, it's been wiped now..halfway through the game. Why didn't they do it earlier?😀 | | | |
| Tonight’s Match… on 20:15 - Nov 5 with 6684 views | Rodingdale |
3-1 now - a brace for Barlow and either the fog has lifted or the camera has warmed up. | | | |

Do we not have an orange ball for these conditions? | | | |
| Tonight’s Match… on 20:43 - Nov 5 with 6466 views | pioneer |
It doesnt exist according to the fixture list on this site.
Under any reasonable interpretation this is a reserve game.
Are PL and Champ clubs entering teams in both this comp and the comp v league 1 and 2 teams? | | | |
| Tonight’s Match… on 20:52 - Nov 5 with 6352 views | Yorkshire_Dale |
Quite a decent game from our lot irrespective of comments herein.
151 for our no 40 too. | | | |
| Tonight’s Match… on 20:53 - Nov 5 with 6340 views | Rodingdale |
4-1 Henderson- the players not celebrating goals. Basically it’s a friendly - but one we should gain some confidence from. A win, is a win. | | | |

2 quid in a bit of footy and a few goals. Fringe players and new guys getting some minutes. Quite enjoyed it. Low key. We've a big squad, so I think good to put players out that aren't getting many minutes.
Played like a friendly game, but we still wanted to put in a performance, as a result 4 goals. Well done the players. [Post edited 5 Nov 2024 22:18]
