A competition that very few people want to see. Our attendances were low when it was the EFL trophy so they will be even less for this.
Even if the home team do keep all of the gate receipts. Are we going to make any profit if we get 500 people paying between £5 and £10? |

Dagenham have just absolutely spanked Gateshead 7-1, scoring all 8 goals. So we've moved back up a place. Every cloud... |

Things have gone our way recently (largely down to how good we've been of course).
Let's see what we're made of now they haven't. |

It was another great performance for the first 50 minutes. The striking difference between this season and last is that we can rotate a lot of the team and there's very little to no drop off in performance.
We unnecessarily panicked after they scored their first and were under pressure for the rest of the game. Last night showed the importance of TAR to the team and the way we play. They hadn't had a sniff down our right hand side all night until he went off but when he did, their left back had pretty much free rein to go up and down the line as he wanted and it caused us a lot of problems. |

First half - superb performance.
Second half - professional performance.
We got a 2 nil lead in the first half and protected it in the second. The fact we've conceded two goals, (the one at York completely preventable) is un believable.
TAR and Gordon on the right is as good a partnership I've seen in 30 years of watching Dale. |

Yesterday was a great game and like others have said, one of the best team performances at Spotland for a long time. It shows what we can do when we play without fear and with an attacking mentality. I don't think Woking are a bad outfit but we made them look like it yesterday.
A lot of the new signings performing well, Mitchell breaking his duck and for me, the best player of the season so far in Gordon. He seems to have come on a lot since last year and having TAR to the right hand side of him seems to give him confidence to both attack and defend.
Play like that and any team in the division will struggle to beat us. |

Was quietly confident going into this season that we'd make progress and become an attacking force but it looks like nothing is changing at all. Another drab half of football with no pressure on their keeper. |

We played better than on Tuesday as we cut out the daft mistakes.
FGR were well organised but nothing special. Our attacks for the first 70 mins were too predictable. Run down the wing, overlap and play it across the 6 yard box.
We seemed to attack more and have a few more shots from distance when the subs were made. I don't think either team would have scored if they were still playing though.
I wasn't at Boston but I don't remember Rodney having a shot in the last 3 games. He's wasted in the system we're currently playing, he needs to be central. |

Got what we deserved which was nothing. York better in attack and defense, stronger and quicker than we were.
We came out fighting in the second half but it soon petered out when York had a decent chance.
From starting XI to substitutions it was a really poor game from McNulty.
Go again Saturday. |

They appointed Southgate off the back of finishing bottom of the group in U21 Euro 2015. Carsley won the Euros against a really strong Spain team last year and I think that will be weighing on the FA's mind. |

Can't see it being anyone other than Potter or Carsley to be honest.
I'd like to see an attacking manager come in now. There wasn't a good consistent team at the Euros outside of the Spanish and when you look at the rest of the world, Brazil is the probably in its worst footballing state ever, Argentina just won Copa America but Messi isn't getting any younger, I don't think any of the African or Asian teams are ready to win a world cup.
With this group of players I don't think we're ever going to get a better chance over the next 2 to 4 years so its crucial the FA get this right. |

Tomorrow will be interesting, the Dutch seem to have found their shooting boots with 9 goals. You'd expect both teams will score in 90 minutes at some point. The Turkey team gave the Dutch defence problems when they ran at them.
I suspect Van Dijk will be more than happy to see Kane drop back to get the ball so everything is played in front of him. It's screaming out for runners in behind but not sure that's how England will set up.
It's worth noting that France are in the semi-finals, too. Only one French player has scored a goal all tournament and that was a penalty so we don't have it that bad, do we? |

Portugal won Euro 2016 and the only game they won in 90 minutes in the entire tournament was against Wales in the semi-final. They won the final AET without their best player for the majority of the game. |

That link was the club co-efficient rankings. Based on how they have performed in UEFA competitions to determine how many clubs go into next years competitions. UEFA doesn't have an international team ranking system, they are based on FIFA's.
Germany were ranked 12th ahead of Euro 2020 and 16th after it.

Yes, there are increases in far right politics going on but I don't get why the people who want to put those already in the country first and stop uncontrolled and illegal immigration are tarred with the 'far right' brush.
The opposite end of the political spectrum is just as bad, has it been the far right protesting and rioting on the streets of France causing shops to board themselves up after election results? There doesn't appear to be any protests of a Labour government over here either, had Reform gained power, would that be the case? |

The kit last season was out on the family day that the club put on wasn't it? That was around 1st July but nothing like that has been put on or mentioned this season. We start pre-season next week surely something should be happening soon but due to lack of communication, we've no idea. |
