Sodje: We will beat Rochdale! Tuesday, 6th Sep 2011 18:33 by Col
Veteran Bury defender Efe Sodje has started talking like a Heavyweight Boxing contender by declaring that his Shakers side will beat Rochdale at Gigg Lane this weekend.
In an astonishing interview which has the potential to blow up in his face, Sodje came out all fighting following Bury's 4-0 hammering at Sheffield United at the weekend insisting that Dale will face the full backlash from Richie Barker's side.
Despite going into the game on the back of four successive defeats, Sodje declared bullishly: "It's going to be a big test on Saturday, but as I always say we're going to win it. I just want it to be a good game, it's not going to be nervy and we will win, simple as that."
Since the sale of Lowe and Mozika, the current Bury squad have a total of just three goals to their name.

Got a fair amount of time for Sodje - been a good servant over the years for all his clubs, works hard for charity and is the sort of larger than life character that football could do with more of. I hope this one blows up in his face, though... | | |

I do think football would be far more interesting if footballers were like this more often, hyping up the games like they were some Heavyweight boxer promising to do utter damage to the opposition. | | |

Blogs 31 bloggersKnees-up Mother Brown #19 by wessex_exile February, and the U’s enter the most pivotal month of the season. Six games in just four weeks, with four of them against sides also in the bottom six. By March we should be either well clear of danger, or even deeper in the sh*t. With Danny Cowley’s U’s still unbeaten, and looking stronger game on game, I’m sure it’ll be the former, but first we have to do our bit to consign Steve ‘Sour Grapes’ Cotterill’s FGR back to non-league. After our shambolic 5-0 defeat at New Lawn, nothing would give me greater pleasure, even if it meant losing one of my closest awaydays in the process. What’s the excuse going to be today Steve – shocking pitch, faking head injuries, Mexican banditry or some other bit of sour-grapery bullsh*t? Charlton Athletic Polls |
