Out 17:36 - Dec 29 with 7518 views | D_Alien | Out-played, out-thought, out-fought, out-tackled, out-run, out-moroned (their fans) Outraged? Nah... i enjoyed watching football being played at such a high level in L1 Sometimes, you just have to take it on the chin, accept the opponent was so much better than you on the day, and move on I was pleased to see us keep our heads up, and enjoy some possession in the last 20 minutes. The only players who i'd be in any way critical of are Camps and Williams11 - not because they had poor games, but simply because both demonstrated beyond any reasonable doubt to me that they're just too pedestrian to progress. Coming up against a Bradford side obviously fired up, they shrank whilst the others kept plugging away and both were removed from the firing line. Adshead was mercifully removed after 35 minutes, not because he wasn't playing well - he was - but this was no game for him to become embroiled in, and it was a bit tasty at times Did anyone think i might've meant Hill Out? Nah... he put out a side on the back of consecutive wins with just one change, and can't be faulted for anything that happened during the game I've already moved on, and hope the players can put this behind them, with maybe just the thought that when they next cross the white line onto the pitch, THAT is how the game is meant to be played - hard, fast, skilful, determined... just like we were in the 0-3 win at Valley Parade in our first promotion season. That's the standard we need to aim for - well done Bradford, you were a joy to watch [Post edited 29 Dec 2018 17:39]

Out on 18:46 - Dec 29 by D_Alien | It could, but as with most home games, new threads are started apart from the match thread - i dare say you've done it yourself some time or other Thanks for helping put the thread in the spotlight anyway, you're a great help at times! Bradford will finish higher up in the league than us, i'm pretty sure of it based on that performance, though they've possibly got too much ground to make up to challenge for the playoffs. On that form though, they're a very, very good side and there should be no shame attached to our players Sure, it's galling to have 2000+ baying Yorkshiremen taking the piss out of us, but you just have to walk away and start again. It could actually do us a favour once the dust has settled, by highlighting more precisely than ever where are weaknesses are, providing we have the wherewithal to do something about it |
I dare say I haven't.. I have a weird habit of using the match thread for what it's for.. talking about the match. I'm sure posting this gave you the biggest arousal you've had for quite some time so I salute you.. | |

Out on 23:11 - Dec 29 by Bainesy15 | Presumably sarcastic but well done, exactly summing up what some bellends seem to expect from this club |
Yep I was being sarcastic. Said it before saying it again. Hill given marching orders=payout say we promote from within. what sort of contract is given? How long do fans give the new manager? If we go down is new gaffer sacked? That = 2 managers in less than a year. Surely a very important thing for a club like Dale is stability. IMO each game needs to be taken in isolation, because there are two many variables involved. It is the 46 game season to judge a team on. If Dale stay in League 1 that =success, anything else at the moment is a bonus. | |

Quite a lot of people neither understand you nor that James. Don't lose heart because of it. | |

Look back over our past 200 (say) home games and there's more than one thread about the match. Just what is your problem, eh? As it happens, the thread has been widely used for a number of different discussions, that's what happens on here. You've actually contributed nothing to it, except coming across as having a geet big streak of green running through you | |
