Monington gets a higher position because of his goals, though yeah you're right, he did have limitations defensively. Bloody liability visiting Rotherham too. |
Monington also had a large female support, mainly due to going commando... |  | | |

KH not happy from the sound of that. - Good. Clearly some players are not doing the things he wants them to do .Sometimes its good to crack the whip or January might be "interesting". |  | | |

I'm implying if you think Lancashire is as bad as you make out, you can't have been watching the Dale long. Yeah he's having a poor season, but as that list 442's put up their have some worse than him. |
I've been watching Dale since the early 90s and stand by what I say. He is absolutely woeful. Not a bone of leadership in him, woeful in the air and is pathetic with his distribution | | | |

Fair enough. Did you ever see Trotman, Coleman and Branston by the way? |  | | |

Yeah they were all worse. Yet he makes Mcardle, Holness, Stanton, Griffiths, Monnington, Hill & O'connell look like world beaters. | | | |

Lancashire isn't the greatest but we've tightened up the last four games and no mistakes from Lancashire |  |

No mistakes from Lancashire ? To me he seems to have no confidence and very rarely finds another Dale player when he releases the ball. He's put us under pressure too many times recently with his decision making/poor delivery. Not one to knock any of our players but to me it's a mystery why he is picked over Eastham. Maybe good for him and us if he were to be given a rest for a while in my opinion. |  | | |

Though there are valid arguments for different selections and we aren't aware of what happens in training, there have been selections that are mystifying. Alessandra's performances at centre forward has not been bettered by Henderson in the same role yet we're persevering with the latter when he's been much more effective elsewhere this season. Similarly you wouldn't find Lancashire complaining if he'd been left out weeks ago. So yeah, some players can be swapped in and out with decent arguments on both sides, yet there are some which remain unaddressed. |
Henderson played on the left in the first half and advanced midfield in the second. |  | | |

My post was more of a general one having not gone today. Who was centre forward in the first half, Bunney? | |

Were we really bad, or are we still punching above our weight? |  |

Personally I’d prefer Eastham but Hill will have his reasons for not selecting him. Lancashire has looked more solid last few games but I do wince at his distribution and always half expect a mistake |  | | |

Sounds like Hilly agrees that starting line was wrong.........protecting PV and Jamie.
Or,have we thrown the towel in on this one already. |
Protecting them in what way?
It didn't suggest the starting line up was wrong. It suggested we had to do something because we were 2-0 down!
On another day, without having Lillis' rash challenge, the same starting line up would probably have gone in at half-time at 0-0. | |

We'll always be punching above our weight in this division.
However, we can compete with bigger clubs with far more resources, as we have always done under Hill.
First half we were anonymous going forward and dozed at the back a few times. Southend could have scored before they did but we made some good last-ditch tackles and Lillis did well.
And then we had that crazy last five minutes of the half... | |

Hill isn’t protecting Allen or PV, reading his interview after the game he seemingly was angry and frustrated at the first half performance. I’d imagine the players and the 3 taken off in particular know that Hill wasn’t happy | | | |

Bunney, then Calvin in the second.
Henderson hasn't played as the striker since Milwall away though, IIRC. It's been Alessandra / Andrew until yesterday when Bunney was up there. | | | |

Fair enough. Alessandra did quite well v Bury and didn't play badly v Oldham - he received little support. Both times he was left out in the following game. He waited for a run in the side and responded with two goals, he deserved to get a longer go at it. | |

I wonder whether Vincenti’s drop in form last couple of games might lead to a re-jig and a chance for him or NML. Personally though a front 3 of Alessandra, Henderson and Vincenti is the one I want to see | | | |

PV's form is suffering through trying to play on through the injury he picked up against Bury. It's not doing him or the side much good, and I hope Hilly's not using him as an example to his so-called "malingering" team-mates because it simply ain't working. |  |
