You're right, but the bookings weren't really in what could be called 'front foot' positions, as initially intimated. |

They were 2-0 down at the time, so they weren't gaining an advantage from delaying the restart, which is what those bookings are usually for. [Post edited 3 Mar 12:06]

Well it might do, but not in this instance. TAR was booked along with an Alty player after a set-to by the corner flag. Gilmour dragged back one of their players who was breaking free. Mitchell went in late on one of theirs on the halfway line. Beckwith was booked for time-wasting at a late goal kick. Can't recall what Bird was carded for. |

It's hard to compare one season to the next on attendances. For example, what you would expect to be the best attended home games v Oldham, Halifax and York, have all been Tuesday nights this season, whereas last term they were all on Saturdays. Not sure which figures you're using, ATP, but the overall average at this season's home games (2684) is down 62 on last season's 2746. The average number of Dale fans (2360) is down 62 on last season's 2392, yet 43 up on our relegation season and 132 up on our first season back in League Two, under Stockdale. Obviously, with a number of home games still to come, the current figures will swing one way or the other, but that's where we are as of today.

He's right - I was there 7 hours! |

It was and the one before it. It was the rotating circle that got me; just couldn't see it, especially under pressure in the studio in 30 seconds. |

Surely you've been watching football long enough to know that 'Former players invariably seem to score against their old clubs' is a bit of a fallacy. Most goals come from strikers, who by dint of their position will tend to score against most opposition, whether they played for them previously or not. Neither Rodney, Hogan or Gilmour have scored against Halifax yet in our colours, for instance. |

Bit difficult to talk to the commentators from behind the goal about 100 yards away! |

Well yes, but it's not realistic to extrapolate like that as you have to also take into account how the other 23 teams are doing. For example, bottom of the table Kidderminster had won four games, compared to Ebbsfleet's one, and had six points more. Also, nobody had 4/5/6 games in hand at that time, which distorts things a little. |

I haven't been a lad for about 40 years. Are you there tonight? [Post edited 19 Feb 16:27]

How would we have to win all our games in hand to scrape seventh? Other teams will also drop points, so it's impossible to say with any certainty what has to be done. What we do have to do is win some of those games in hand, as well as at least one of the two in the league we have against Altrincham, plus some others! The picture will be much clearer after that week when we have Gateshead, Wealdstone and Altrincham at home. [Post edited 19 Feb 11:01]
