Not too long ago I found this cheeky and delightful song. I can't remember if it was posted on here or not, but it seems to have grown with some popularity, I believe he played in the flying horse and is campaigning with "I love Rochdale".
Now although I don't take that campaign with much or any seriousness, I did however think that if we could get enough of us to know the chorus for an away day, then it would be quite a good laugh!
So I remember we started a rumours and facts post and it turned into a bit of a joke/parody. And I thought it would be fun again to give it another go.
So, I'll begin.
George Donnelly has collected 27 coke bottles with his name on.
Was doing a bit of reading last night and saw that (Wayne Rooney's brother) John Rooney is a free agent following his release from Barnsley.
He played mainly over in the MLS before joining the Tykes only to be released.
Not sure if Hill was in charge at the point or indeed, if we actually need another striker at all, considering that we've already got Grant, Donnelly and I'm sure even though he isn't competitive quality yet, that Gray will make a few appearances this season.
I'm more than happy with Lillis, I've seen what he can do on form.
But would you want him back?
Also, does anyone remember the goal keeper we had on loan from West Ham when Beechy took charge? He was brilliant but came to an abrupt end when he was seriously injured by Lee Hughes' deliberately two footed him.
I heard he was released from West Ham after mutual agreements. Is he at another club or was his career brought to an end after that?
I know we should be over this, but I feel quite angered.
Without doubt Gary Jones was and still is a machine on the field, his effort and passion is without doubt one of the 'never say never -ever' attitude, that only very-very few have in the football league.
I am incredibly pleased for him to go onto another playoff final being the captain again. He deserves it after the way he was treated in his final days at our club.
And that's what angers me.
The way Coleman came in, striped 'Mr Rochdale' of his captaincy and pushed him out of the club.
And not one of us thought anything of it; not even after all the times he served us through the difficult times. He never left through-out them.
But instead when he was the only one who stood up and voiced his anger and questioned to why his 'managers' came 2 hours late to training hung over, he was given the boot.
No other player stood up and defended him? Not one board member did? Not even us?
Why not?
We let go one of the best players to wear a dale shirt and the captains armband, someone who was the voice on the field for the fans.
And we stood by and watched him be treated like a bad-apple fringe player with a very out of ordered attitude.
Now you don't have to reply, although I assume someone is going to come up with an excuse or another story.
But the fact remains, as fans from terraces, we voiced nothing.
I'm just glad he's at a club where fans realise how much of a footballing giant he is and let him know.
