| Forum Thread | Rochdale Supporters Game Report Bury B vs Rochdale NW CUP QF at 22:09 2 Feb 2013
For anyone who is interested! Game started off badly for us going 1 nil down to a poorly judged defensive header and a good finish from the bury forward. We got an equaliser not long after with a well flighted free kick finding Jack Forshaw at the back post to tap in. 1-1. Both teams were fighting hard for control of the match but we got a break down the right our right winger took a shot which their keeper parried and Paul Hudson drilled home to make it 1-2. As was the balance of play Bury carved out many chances for themselves and went up the other end to equalise with a well taken finish from the left of the penalty box. Bury conceded a penalty late in the 1st half and Jack Forshaw saw his penalty run wide of the right post. HT: 2-2 The second half started brightly for dale. Two quickfire goals at the start of the first half from Jack Forshaw and Kyle Davies saw us stretch our lead before constant Bury pressure on our back four showed with a good move from a corner finding the back of the net. 3-4 was the comeback on? Dale stretched their lead out to 3-5 following a mix up between the Bury left back and their keeper with Kyle Davies on hand to tap home his 2nd of the day. As ever Bury heads weren't down and they forced a poor back pass from one of the Rochdale defenders and pounced on the chance. 4-5. Tricky work from the right of the box by Luke Walsh saw him felled by the Bury centre half inside the box. The ref gave a foul and a penalty. Truth be told Rochdale needed this 2 goal cushion as the Bury front line were carving out good chances consistently. Kyle Davies stepped up and scored. But the ref disallowed it due to him not having blown the whistle to take it. Kyle stepped up again and got his hattrick putting the ball the same way and rippling the net. Chances came and went for either side but the ref called time to an entertaining game and Rochdale progressed to the Semi Final of the North West Cup 4-6. Rochdale Team: Adam Stott, Iain Murray, Jack Leeming(c), Rhys Wolstenholme, Joe Ralphs, Jack Forshaw, Luke Walsh, John Barton, Liam Jennings, Kyle Davies, Paul Hudson Subs: Paul Smith-Markl. I'm going to try and raise the profile of the supporters team by posting reports from our matches. Hopefully the above hasn't bored you all to death and you will take more interest in the lads who always carry the good image and reputation of the club into every game. |

Hi Everyone, As some of you may know the Rochdale Supporters team has been running for a good number of years and continues to play in the IFA Supporters league. The main goal is to build relations both with other clubs but also within our own support by playing games on the morning of a matchday either away or at home (ideally against a supporters team of the team Dale are playing that day) Over the last number of years due to a mixture of work, family and health commitments the size of the squad of players we have to select from has dwindled and we are now in need of fresh blood. The main ideology behind the supporters team has never changed and our only pre-requisite is that you are a Dale fan. It has become increasingly important that the supporters team play games away as this gives us a chance to secure the financial future of the supporters (generally the team hosting pays a lions share of the costs and by not playing away we are running at a loss year on year). As such we will need to recruit fans that follow the dale both home and away. You don't need to follow Dale every away game but ideally it would help. There is a game tomorrow against Bury A at Goshen sports centre in Bury (BL9 9RG). The kick off is at 11am and anyone is welcome to come down and introduce themselves to the team or just to watch. The likely next game will be away to Wycombe and anyone that will be available for that game is welcome to message me on here or DM me on the twitter feed.

Thought I'd kickstart the thread. Will be a good test for our team, hopefully we wont see it as a be all and end all but a cup run this year is important for the club in my opinion whether it be Carling cup or FA Cup or even the JPT. I do think that Barnsley should have enough to edge it tonight. 3-2 in extra time. Would hope that Hill goes for a very similar team to Saturday and would look to introduce a couple of players in the second half from the bench. Lillis Wiseman Dawson Holness Widdowson Kennedy BBM Jones Thompson JLAA COG Subs: Edwards, Goodall, Done, Tutte, Elding, Andre, Flynn. Tutte to replace Kennedy or BBM and Elding to replace Joey T or JLAA. |
