Losing to the team on top and in form is no great shame but the way you do it by playing absolute dross is clearly on show this afternoon. Today has to be the turning point that the owners see it's not working and we need a change if we are to save the season.
Crowds are falling, the players look totally demotivated and drained of any spark they once held. I've given him a bit longer to sort it out after him sticking with us last season when we were on the brink of nonexistence but you can't run a football team off the past and the current and future holds more importance.
Thanks for everything Jim we appreciate it but it's just not working. |  | | |  |

Feels like a significant defeat and sounded really bad on Dale Player. We are not out of the race yet but are making things very difficult for ourselves. |  | | |

Ive resisted posting for weeks because Kel knows everything so there was no need.
Men v boys today. Useless tactics, clueless gameplan.
You’re a gentleman Jim. Do the honourable thing coz this is horrible to watch and the players have clearly had enough |  | | |

Absolutely not. Jim McNulty needs to leave the club. He's been heavily involved for far too long in the poorest sides we've seen. |  |

Not aimed at you in particular, James, but people really, really need to get over Keith Hill. It’s in the past (which we used to mock bury fans for before they let their club die). Time to look forward with or without McNulty. | |

Won 3 out of 40 games at Scunthorpe.
Will always love Keith for what he did for us but the game has changed so much in the last 10 years and it's left him behind unfortunately. |  |

Whenever I read threads like the recent ones on here, I am reminded of a story from a pal who used to sell pet food for a well known manufacturer... He attended a sales conference , with well over 100 other salesmen and women, at a prestigious venue, there were a number of highly paid executives on stage and a long discussion about a new range of dog food. The animal dietician spoke about the carefully selected ingredients, the gravy and why it was excellent for animals, the marketing team talked about the TV coverage, the new commercials, the magazine articles , vouchers, special offers etc. And at the end the MD stood up and looked at the salesforce and asked a question,,...
" Given everything we have heard this morning, why are you not selling more of this terrific product"?
There was much shuffling of feet, eyes were diverted away from the stage and an amount of coughing and harrumphing and then a voice eventually piped up from the back of the hall..." THE F**KING DOGS DONT LIKE IT....
So here we are the football is crap, the results are mid-table we have only won 33% of home games over the last 4 seasons, 83 games and scored slightly more than 1 goal per game... " The F**king dogs dont like it". Something has to change. This situation is why gates are falling, season tickets will be a hard sell, sponsors will quit. What happens on the pitch affects everything and right now we are being fed thin gruel leading to starvation. For Gods sake give us something to cheer and shout about...and if McNulty won't, find somebody who will, we need a leader, not a lecturer. |  | | |

Gates are falling, the sky is falling.
Average attendance as things stand is 34 less than last season's average attendance. We've still got York to come and Hartlepool who always bring a fair few on their last away game.
Everyone on this forum always massively overplays how much the attendances are falling. | |

I'll ask again (not to you in particular), but:
Who will "find somebody who will" ?
There's no-one at the club with the knowledge or experience to do so. Not counting Gauge, who's acquired 'some' experience but all negative, and wouldn't trust him to catch a cold |  |

To say that "everyone" does is massively overplaying it too
The hard facts are known to many, as is the likelihood that those figures are only going to go one way (downwards) if our current footballing malaise continues into next season | |

I'm not doubting that they will, but the hard fact is that they haven't. Not really anyway. Not yet. | |

If have counted correctly we have won 7 league games at home so far this season scoring 18 goals in those victories. | |

……and in the other 7 games we’ve drawn 3 and lost 4 scoring only 2. So your point is what ? | | | |

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.
