Amazing achievement from Hornets. Toulouse basically tried to buy that league. Some big teams coming to Spotland next season and the £££ can only benefit the town as a whole. |  |

Not kept up with Hornets but glad they've acheived something. What league are they in now, and what sort of teams will be coming to the COA next season? |  |

Hopefully extra income to the Dale . |  |

Congratulations. Out of interest how does the Hornets' tenancy work? Do they pay us a set amount or do we get a percentage of their gate takings? |  | | |

It'll be a fixed monthly rent I'd imagine.
This just shows the importance of owning the stadium outright.
And them winning promotion just after we've secured ownership must be the first favour they've ever granted us.
Indeed, it's in our interests to assist Hornets to stay up if their gates are now going to top 1000 on a regular basis. |  |

Can someone explain what benefits we get from Hornets apart from the rent mentioned above. For instance, do refreshments profits go to Dale or Hornets? What about car-parking profits? Hospitality etc? |  |

We can blame them for not eating enough |  |

I'd imagine we run the bars and the pie huts to our advantage. In other words all income which used to go into the Stadium Company now comes to us. That's my understanding of it anyway. | |

What sort of big teams? |  |
| When I was your age, I used to enjoy the odd game of tennis. Or was it golf? |

I would imagine that when the rugby league sold us the shares that were originally owned by the defunct Rochdale Hornets club, we would have got them at a reduced price on the condition that we give the new Rochdale Hornets a long term lease, so if we did not allow Hornets to play, we may not have been able to afford to buy the ground as the shares would have cost more.
I also understand that any sales from the bars or tea bars go straight to Dale.
They also bring occasional other games to the stadium such as the Rugby League world cup a few years ago which would not have happened if Hornets had not been playing there.
I'm surprised that they don't do more double header tickets though. Buy a ticket that gets you in to Dale on Saturday and Hornets on Sunday and save 10% or something like that. I have often heard people talking at Hornets matches saying they go there for rugby, but then go to MCFC for football, so if we can get those people going to Dale games, it can only be a good thing even if it's just the occasional game. Maybe we give Hornets a free advert in our programme if they do the same for us so we can advertise our games. | | | |

Hope they don't play at the same time as us again. Will stop the idiot in the Pearl St who had their match on his phone on speaker and complained when a steward told him to turn it off! |  | | |

Why was he an idiot? He had paid to watch the Dale and was also keeping up with Hornets. I remember when I first started watching the Dale you couldn't move for transistor radios in the Sandy keeping up with other scorelines. I'd have told the steward where to go personally.
Massive achievement by Hornets apparently (Don't follow the rugby, but bloody good luck to them). |  | | |

Because he thought he had a ghetto blaster rather than a personal phone?
Wasn't bothering me one bit #mutton but a few around me were slightly annoyed by it. | |

Fair enough then if it was being played at an unacceptable level. However some people just love complaining. | | | |

Fantastic victory! From 16-8 down at half time.
I think Hornets are the only side to beat Toulouse in the league.
Full credit to the players. Hope the travelling fans enjoyed their night out. |  | | |

On the BBC Sports page,it`s all about Super League,scores and news,and bugger all else,so no wonder they initially got the score wrong. | | | |

Fabulous result for the game,the town,and hopefully for Dale in the long run,all as long as Hornets can keep their status quo in the Championship. The board have a few months now to get ready for the big move,hopefully keeping most of those players and the coach who has really done a Keith Hill and in his first year. Home games with Oldham,Swinton and Halifax should bring in decent crowds,though we all know the ever dwindling sporting population of Rochdale will probably stay away as they have for decades now. Still,Onward and Upward,as we used to say in the "good old days". | | | |
