Match thread on 20:31 - Oct 25 by dalenumber2 | Happy days as a Dale fan. We're having a very entertaining season and witnessing some great football and exciting games. I don't really care where we end up at the end of the season as long as we stay in league 1 - just enjoying the ride. Thank you Keith Hill. |

Match thread on 16:48 - Oct 25 by 100notout | Yes. I'd play him in front of Lund at the moment. Lund is not the same player as he was last year, not match fit, heart not in it, won't sign a contract. Who scored the winner at Swindon? Hery doesn't deserve to be dropped imho. |
Agree about Hery. Surprised he didn't feature today. | |

Match thread on 17:12 - Oct 25 by 442Dale | Biggest thing remains that gap between us and the bottom four. If it remains a three game turnaround required in terms of points/goal difference, I'm happy. Currently it's as good a four game difference. |
Don't worry about the bottom four. It's really not our problem. | |

Agreed, we can sit and debate the team sheets and substitutions until the cows come home, but at the end of the day we're in a fantastic position and Keith Hill is the man who has brought us here. He engineered our highest ever league finish four seasons ago, and I won't be surprised IF* he does it again. Enjoy the ride ladies and gents, Keith Hill's barmy army. *FGs take note | |

Match thread on 16:54 - Oct 25 by Daley_Lama | Who scored the first at Swindon? Oh, it was Matty Lund, the player with no heart, soul etc. I will leave the message board managers to debate our staff/formation while celebrating back to back wins at Swindon and Yeovil, all managed with Lund and Rose starting in both games. #unbelieveablejeff |
Rose came on as a sub at Swindon, tbf. | |

As always, I can be fallible. I normally am. On the other hand, I spent 15:00-17:00 today enjoying from my sofa us winning at Yeovil rather than typing self opinionated, I know better than Keith Hill crud. Good luck with that one message board managers. YAAAAARGH! Still doing it. Smug with it too it would seem. Even the delectable Steve Evans thinks Keith Hill is a perfect manager for our club. There had to be a downer in all of this somewhere. | |

The Radio Manchester reporter at Yeovil said his man of the match was Michael Rose He an excellent game against Gillingham and it couldn't have been easy being his first full match for some time. I for one was surprised he was in the team That we have suddenly scoring goals with headers from corners (sent over by him) is in miracle in itself considering we do not have a lot of height compared to other teams. Our record in scoring from corners has been pretty abysmal most games Whether he plays or not (and lets be honest he had taken a lot a stick on this forum in recent times - unfairly in my view as Hilly tells him where to play on the pitch) he is worth his weight in gold the dressing room with all his experience Well played Michael !!!!!!!!! | | | |

So it's "crud" to hold open debates about team selection on a fans messageboard? The comment about people who do so thinking they know better than KH is utter tripe. We're simply having an online chat about the team we love. If you can't handle that, that's your problem. As far as I'm concerned, the only downer yesterday was your utterly smug response to a fabulous victory. You, in fact,are the real messageboard manager - trying to manage what genuine fans should or should not discuss. | |

I think we'll just have to agree to disagree on our definition of "downers" - and sorry you don't like inverted commas. My version of having a downer would probably make a lot of people feel better than they normally do! That almost certainly sounds insufferably smug - hopefully. So, it was just the one messageboard manager then? I apologise for misinterpreting your use of the plural. [Post edited 26 Oct 2014 21:53]

It was one part of one post in truth, but added to previous crud written about other players by other posters, plural was used. I simply want to enjoy the best team we've ever had (your words roughly) without reading nasty personal comments while we are winning 3-0 away. If 100notout knows better than Keith Hill that Lund's heart is not in it then fair enough. If not he's being a self opinionated messageboard manager in this instance. Not somebody i would usually single out for this to be honest and with hindsight he probably meant it in relation to the fact that Lund didn't sign a contract extention. I was here when we were sh*t. So was you. Some of the guff on here lends it to that era not nowadays. | |

100notout is indeed a whole-hearted Dale fan and I don't think for one minute he thinks he knows better than KH how to handle players - he's simply speaking from the heart when he sees a player not willing (for whatever reason) to commit to the Dale cause. In response to my (among others) suggestion that, having played his part in Dale's move into 5th place, Hery might feel justified in speaking to his agent after being omitted, ColDale was right in pointing out his best interests lay in staying put whilst KH developed him towards his full potential. Many of us feel the same about Lund, and perhaps the last few minutes of a resounding victory are quite a good time to point up the fact that Lund should be bloody grateful for his place. It's nothing to do with "messageboard managing" though - simply a heartfelt expression of wanting the Dale family to value their shirt, especially when the side are playing great football. | |

Match thread on 07:48 - Oct 27 with 1066 views | Daley_Lama | Ok. Imagine if you will a coach load of Dale players stuck on the M5 on a saturday night returning for the second time with 3 points from down south. Having done their civic duty of thanking the thankers on twitter and facebook one of them decides to read the match thread on the only Dale message board of note to bask in the feel-good factor that is surely to be had. "Oi Matty. One of our lot reckons you shouldn't be playing because your heart is not in it" I've no doubt in anyway that 100notout is a true Dale fan and as above, he/she is not a poster i would ever associate with talking tripe but i equally know the above scenario happens and healthy debate leads to annoyance and then the manager criticisng messageboard managers and then fans getting uppity because he dare to criticise their right to critcise ad infinitum. We could 'healthy debate' til the cows come home, i'm done and will leave it as me being both irritated and smug. | |

Fair enough, but the squad will be neither irritated nor smug, because they'd have already grown the balls required to perform at a professional level. Sorry your Saturday afternoon was spoiled, but maybe you should take the advice you dish out to others and grow some too. [Post edited 27 Oct 2014 11:55]

I have seen no sign whatsoever of Matty Lund "heart not in it" in fact exactly the opposite Kindly provide some evidence As far as I am concerned he has never given less than 100% and is a great credit to himself and the club Not 100% match fit against Barnsley most likely yes - but how could it be otherwise after his lengthy lay off. Once he gets match fit I am sure he will be just as good in this Division as he was last season As for 'won't sign a contract' maybe so - but that isn't to say he isn't in negotiations with the club unless you know more than the rest of us If Matty hadn't scored the first goal at Swindon then Hery couldn't have score the winner | | | |

Lund didn't play that well in pre-season or before he get injured, but players suffer dips in form. It happens. Plus he's got the cursed no.8 shirt. | |
