I expect he isn't looking forward to the hike in energy bills along with the rest of us. | |

He was at Morcambe 17 years, must be a millionaire 10x over by now!!!! This is the most crucial appointment in Dale’s recent history. So hope he can raise the confidence levels around the club. When does the transfer window close? I hope he has wriggle room to bring in some players he trusts. Good luck, get em at it. | | | |

Jim Bentley - officially appointed. on 12:18 - Aug 29 with 8239 views | HullDale | If I had to describe how I feel about this appointment in a word, I think it'd be 'relaxed'. I'm not massively excited, but I'm also not disappointed... its a sensible solution to the problem we find ourselves in. I'm not expecting champagne football, but I am expecting hard graft, physical fitness & in-game tactical flexibility. Do I think he will get us challenging for promotion in 2 years? No. Do I think he'll make us solid & tough to beat? Yes. If he has a personal fire within him which matches that of Dale fans because of how he left Fylde, that can only go in our favour. Wozz made a good point on Saturday - thanks to the actions of the previous board we are basically starting from scratch. We're not a stable Lg1 club that should be fighting to go straight back up. Equally, we're not a bottom of Lg2 club that relies on re-election... both are in the past. We are Rochdale AFC. We are fan owned & sustainable. & we will build gradually over the next few years in the hope of exiting Lg2 (the right way!) again. | | | |

Jim Bentley - officially appointed. on 13:44 - Aug 29 with 7818 views | TalkingSutty | Great to have you at our fan owned club Jim...just to play football in our opponents half and look like scoring goals will be great. Players fit enough to press our opponents and players who show desire, fight and a real will to win games. Why did we have players passing it around in defence during the last minute of Saturday’s game, why did they they not try one last time to get the winning goal...what sort of winning mentality is that rubbish? The lot of them need taking out of their comfort zone and need to man up, you can do that Jim. We are good at fighting wars, we’ve just won one, when are the players going to come to the party and start showing the same passion? | | | |

A couple of years ago ( or longer ) didn't Jim get fined by the EFL for something . A couple of grand and the Morecombe fans had a whip round to pay his fine. | |
