It's disappointing when you lot make that response. If you really really think that then try somewhere else. I've lived here most my life but been elsewhere on many occasions, I know we get bad media attention etc but there are other places much worse. Stop it with that stupid response it makes you sound like a bunch of idiots playing with yr own poo. |  |

It's usually a lighthearted response to visiting fans taunts.........bit of fun really.
That said,I left Rochdale in 1985 and only return to visit San Spotty! |  | | |

No. It deflates the opposition's chants and turns it back on themselves. A clever ruse actually. Akin to Welsh team supporters chanting "2-0 to the sheepshaggers". There is just no answer to it. |  |

Spot on with that, and there is no answer to it. I remember on the last day of last season Newport fans singing to us " we're sheepshagging bas....ds we know what we are" and we couldn't really offer anything in return. |  |

It's both factually correct and hilarious. It's also only a response. It'd be a bit different if people randomly broke into song without being provoked |  | | |

Makes me laugh every time, Please don't stop! it's a bantourous response only, my mate is a forest fan, and he said that was a talking point, they thought was brilliantly funny. |  | | |

I have lived elsewhere for at least half of my life and I can confirm, Rochdale is a sh"thole. Look at the 4g coverage for the borough in contrast to bury or even owdham? Look at the shops in the town centre compared to other local towns....., how many decent boozers are there in the town centre for visitors to enjoy a decent drink and good atmosphere......
Its what we are , and unfortunately the council have run it down and acted too late . | | | |

The Council and Cameron are purely to blame for the charging higher rent than London for Shops that's why HMV moved to B**y |  |

When was the last time Rochdale had a Conservative led council?? Never in my life time if ever. The decline of Rochdale is solely down to the numerous Labour and Lib Dem councils.
Its no surprise that Bury has a Conservative MP (not sure of the make up of the council)and it has been developed well even when Labour was in power.
Why is that then? [Post edited 14 Jan 2015 10:42]

Back to the OP, I don't sing it - never have and never will.
Rochdale (well a good proportion of it) is a sh!thole but its OUR sh!thole and how any Bradford or Oldham fan can sing about Rochdale being a sh!thole is beyond belief.
(I know its supposed to be "banter" but really?) | |

Personally, I love it. It's factually correct, I'm proud of my team, not the town, and it's a clever comeback so, I suspect it will stay. |  |

Said it before. Funny the first few times it was aired now it's depressing that it's the loudest noise in the ground all game, every game. A bit of positivity about the game in view wouldn't go amiss.
Town centre may have a lack of shops but I personally haven't bought anything from a high street shop for years... the internet is the way forward. I'd much prefer investment to be made into "proper" jobs, not just shelfstackers and attendants for our 1249021 car parks. There's a few decent boozers prematch and that suits me... I don't work in Rochdale so other than football I have no reason to visit the town centre. The town's got plenty of good parts vs it's shiteholes. I won't name where I think is good v not cause I'm sure a fair few posters will live in the not-so-nice parts of town (don't want to offend...).
Does make me laugh when fans from equally salubrious places chant at us though.. Scunthorpe, Barnsley, Oldham, Bradford etc... yeah they're all cosmopolitan conurbations of culture! |  |

By my reckoning since 1970 Rochdale Council has been run by:
23 years Labour
15 years of No Overall Control
3 years Liberal
3 years Conservative
There have been 30 years of Liberal MPs and 12 years of Labour MPs since 1972.
You only need to drive through the town to realise that re-electing the same set of numpties is doing nothing to make the situation better. Rochdale is indeed a sh1thole, a situation which seems to suit Labour and Liberals alike as it maintains their client voters in a state which seems to perpetuate their power base, especially at times when they can blame a Conservative Government for their ineptitude. Its time to throw out the lot of them and start anew. |  | | |
