Reply | George Nevett to Peterborough
at 08:46 18 Jun 2024
Lots of reporting that the deal will be concluded today.
Peterborough have an excellent track record of buying well and selling players on for a large profit. Their Chairman certainly is no mug and plays hardball when negotiating.
I doubt if the figure will be as high as we may have hoped but hopefully we have agreed good sell on clauses.
Football wise it seems a good move for Nevitt going to the higher reaches of the First division. Potentially he will make the first team or bench sooner than if he had gone to a team higher in the pyramid. |

Big Jim gets plenty of criticism on this forum and maybe in some cases it is justified.
However he has to get a lot of praise for the development of Nevitt and also having the courage to play him in the first place.
Personally if we get a sum in the region of £500,000 I think we will have done well. Obviously the add on clauses are where potentially the real money could be made. |

Just pre ordered the book on Amazon. They have it on sale for a maximum price guarantee of £14.69 including delivery.
Appears to be sold by various channels for different prices.
As someone who is not in the know about behind the scenes issues I am looking forward to hearing what Chris has to say.
I have all the books by Mark Hodkinson and hope this new one matches up. |

Excellent signing in my opinion. Solid experienced defender and good in the air. I think he looked after Nevitt last year and needs to take a bit of credit for the young lads progression.
Agree that he is not entirely comfortable on the ball but overall pleasing to see him sign a new contract. |

With regard to the training ground is the funding to come from a separate pot provided by the Ogdens or will it come from the £2 million invested already?. |

I am an exile as well and also didn't much enjoy the style of football last season. However I think there is a lot more expectation this coming season and believe we should get behind the club as a whole. We have had a few dark years and are lucky to have found the investors who are backing the club.
We need everyone to continue buying their season cards and also encourage others to do so. For me the coming season will go a long way to defining our future,
Perhaps I may be well off the mark but we have to believe the good times are near. This is what being a Rochdale fan for over 50 years does to you.
Its the hope that will kill you!!! |

Does anyone know how the season ticket sales are going? The only update I saw was on Monday advising just over 150 had been sold.
In view of the recent good news regarding the Ogden investment I expected that there would be a positive response from fans. |

at 10:05 18 May 2024
i am a member as well as my wife. We are not on auto renewal but neither of us have received anything about subscriptions etc.
Is it time to renew and if yes what is the easiest way to do this?.
Would hate to think the Trust are losing members and donations because communication is not being received. |

I see that Carlisle have released Thomas Holy.
Very surprised to read he was 3rd choice with them.
Would be a great signing for us. A six foot nine inch goalkeeper that dominates the box and is good with his feet.
Always thought he put fear into strikers with his physical presence. |

On his day Sinclair would be a valuable asset to the team. He started off the season on fire however this didn't last for long enough. I suppose his consistent inconsistency is the reason his career is in the lower reaches of the football pyramid.
It is probably likely that he will shine for a period of time at another club. Just like Campbell and Newby are doing at Solihull and Altrincham.
However on balance it is probably the right decision to let him go. |

I am also in the camp that we should retain both EEL and Rodney.
At this level EEL is as good or not better than the majority of centre halves.
Rodney since his return has made a hell of a difference to our attacking threat. He is strong, quick and packs a powerful shot. If he remains fit for a full season he would easily get 20 plus goals.
Obviously though none of know what offers they may have had elsewhere or what their wage demands are.
Time will tell. |

The statement is wonderful reading. I cannot help feeling that we have won footballs version of The Apprentice.
Instead of Lord Sugar and his experts guiding and investing in a business we have Sir Peter Ogden.
Hopefully good times are to follow and this project must be supported by as many people as possible. |

Reply | Club Appeal Red Card..
at 12:27 6 Apr 2024
I was one who thought the appeal shouldn't go ahead simply because I saw Oldhams appeal rejected for what I thought was a lesser infringement.
Glad to say I was wrong. Lets hope Mitchell now gets the winner. |

I think it unlikely that the red would be overturned if we made an appeal simply because Oldham recently had Fondop sent off and lost their appeal for something less innocuous.
This was highlighted on TNT's coverage of the Alty v Oldham game yesterday. The commentator and pundits were bewildered to say the least how it was not overturned.
Suggest we just save ourselves the £500 and put it to better use. |

Not sure that he needs to prove his ability. He played for Salford in League 2 last year and has made 2 appearances in the Championship this year.
Probably its more likely that Huddersfield want to ensure he gets some game time as he is 3rd choice there. |

Jacob Chapman signs from Huddersfield until the end of the season.Perhaps Brooks is not coming back after international duty. |

at 11:03 16 Mar 2024
Its good to hear the positive comments about the Chairman in the process. I can't help but feel that sometimes he unfairly gets bad press.
I am not one of those 'in the know' and would like to think of him as being someone who looks after the best interests of the club. |
