When we all started to use the #RAFC hashtag, we were the only ones using it but in recent months we're being swamped with Belgian tweets and tweets from some Welsh Sunday league and an amateur team somewhere. These days you have to rake through a bunch of belgian stuff to find the odd Dale related tweet. If like me you have a permanent search set up to catch #RAFC tagged tweets then I'm guessing you find this as frustrating as I do.
I think we have to find our own unique hashtag that isn't likely to be highjacked and used by any other group with the initials RAFC. I suggest #DALEAFC.
Anyone else agree, or have any suggestions, or do you think it should be left alone leaving us to trawl through the crap we don't want to read? | | | |  |

What about #Rochdale or #Dale - I think they help with the fanpower things aswell for those that have signed up? | | | |

#Rochdale is too specific to the town plus there is a town in the states called Rochdale.
#Dale is already used for all kinds of crap, we'd be better off with the Belgians!
I like #DaleAFC, only 8 characters, but what about #Daleys? | | | |

#Dale doesn't work as you get loads of teenie girls talking about their latest heartthrob.
Or loads of middle-aged Friends of Dorothy talking about theirs... | | | |

How about we start a Twitter 'firm' and bully off the Royal Antwerp fans and make them get their own tag! | |

So many a pre-pubescent girl and middle aged queen is adding to our Fan power status?

to allow those looking to find it, surely it should be something you could guess
#upthedale
#rochdaleafc
I know there's a character limit but those extra 4 can't do too much damage | | | |

As long as we agree on one I don't mind what it is.
Poll Col?

We used to use #RochdaleAFC in the old days before it all got standardised into #RAFC cos some people used to use #Dale and some #upthedale etc.
I reckon #RochdaleAFC is a bit long but I'm good with #upthedale or #DaleAFC [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Looks like somebody got there first with #upthedale, its been used loads already, there is a football club called Kingsdale FC who are using it. Search and you'll see.
Looks like its #DaleAFC or #RochdaleAFC then.... | | | |

Keep it the same.
It's #RAFC and should stay #RAFC.
Considering the alternatives...
#DaleAFC and #UpTheDale. What about #WintonsSuperSoccerAFC? | | | |

Thing is Ken, the Belgian tweets are increasing all the time, we're already getting at least 3 Antwerp tweets to 1 Dale, How long before its 5 or 10? Not to mention the times Dale tweets are outnumbered by the Welsh sunday league stuff. I can't be arsed trawling through it. Surely the whole point of a hashtag is a single recognisable tag for a specific topic? | | | |

Yes.
#dale #upthedale #thedale are all being used by others already leaving...
#daleafc #rochdaleafc and #twitterdale. I think the last two are too long personally.
