Letters to the Editor 19:51 - Sep 21 with 2823 viewsEGP

Since our appeal to revive our erstwhile feature, the EGP inbox has received a number of letters. We'll try and publish monthly, so if you have anything you want to get off your chest, then feel free to email us stating your name and vague location. The best letters will be published, and contributors will receive an EGP gift.

Dear Editor,

There’s a lot to be said for watching game shows. Until I watched Pointless, I had no idea Bury had won the FA Cup.

Charles Regina, Windsor

Dear Editor,

I’ve noticed a disturbing trend in Dale away matches evolve over the last few seasons. When we are winning by a single goal, the 4th official always signals 4 minutes of added time, despite the number of goals, substitutions or injuries. If however we are trailing by a single goal, there is only ever 2 minutes added on despite the number of goals, substitutions or injuries. Yet again it’s one rule for Dale and another for the other clubs.

Jim Delsey, Hamer

Dear Editor,

I was driving down Kingsway the other day and noticed a pub called The Hornet. Surely it should be The Rochdale Hornet, or did the pub company go bust and have to reform under a different name? I think Greene King should be more transparent with us.

William Morrison, Kingsway

Dear Editor,

When away fans sing “Rochdale’s a shithole, I want to go home” you can only imagine they have arrived by train and have walked through town to the ground. They will have seen a number of doorways are being used by homeless people to sleep in, and will have also noticed the empty cans of cider, and fag ends littered around. If these homeless people tidied up a bit on Saturday mornings, then surely we wouldn’t hear the aforementioned song as often?

Nathaniel West, Town

Dear Editor,

We’ve got Ebola screamed my mate down the phone. Imagine my relief when I later read we’d re-signed Dele Adebola for a nominal fee.

Neil Edmonds, Milnrow

Dear Editor,

I have been disappointed with this year’s home shirt design. The Dale crest is 1mm smaller in diameter than last year’s shirt, yet we have been charged £1 more this season. Yet again, it is the fans who are being ripped off.

M. Thackeray, Norden

Dear Editor,

Why is it not permitted for fans to enter Spotland with a pie from the chippy? It seems so unfair. Last week, I bought a pie in the Sandy Lane kiosk and ate it sitting on the wall outside the chippy. No-one batted an eyelid.

Mr Holland, Accrington

Dear Editor,

I visited that famous old ground Gigg Lane the other day, and was dismayed to find some scaffolding on one of the stands. For such an old club, you’d think they’d have got the roof fixed by now. Another sad reflection of the “rip-off Britain” building trade I suppose.

R Shaker Whitefield

Dear Editor,

I was dismayed to hear our star striker, George Donnelly, has been sold to Tranmere. Over the last year, I’ve built up a nice sideline by spending matches in Denehurst Park. I can get £50 for a hardly used matchball. On a good day, I’d be earning over £100. I’m not sure I can carry on with my sideline now though, as it would mean having to buy a boat.

Mike Mitre Passmonds.

I disagree, got much more of a New Testament feel to it.

Brilliant stuff as usual EGP - Mike Mitre Passmonds' letter had me in stitches.

Couldn't agree more, Taz.


When I was your age, I used to enjoy the odd game of tennis. Or was it golf?

Breaking News .... Police have found a partially decomposed human leg behind the back of Healey Conservative Club. It was wearing a hooped RAFC sock. Hopefully it can be reunited with its owner when it is packed in ice and a taxi driver from Intime is found who is willing to make the journey to Tranmere.
