Reply | Examples of bad Covid protocol management in football

Did Rochdale suffer any covid related postponement 12 months previously, subsequent to an alleged Xmas drinks party at the club following an away game. The stadium being left unlocked afterwards? |

I think the way the poll vote was.decided upon was, in itself, incorrect.
From memory a vote is taken on a showing hands unless a poll vote is requested AT THE MEETING and has the support of 5 members at the meeting.
The poll vote decisions taken at an earlier board meeting and we have no independent witness to who voted for it and were they actually shareholders.
This decision was challenged at the meeting and from memory the solicitor appeared to dodge the request to refer to a copy of the articles.
There was also an accusation made by a serving director, I believe, that the Trust was visiting shareholders "with menaces". |

Draft script: next broadcast from RAFC
As a well run football club with an unblemished track record in keeping supporters on board I thought I would update you on recent events.
Firstly, I would like to commend our talented young manager on keeping us in league one until the end of the season - you will notice we will be playing in that division on Sunday and we have earned that right.
Some quarters are focussing on relegation, which is something that simply does not bother me. The way I see it, it is the start of a tremendous journey for this wonderful football club, starting with our celebration on Saturday at the football club. Yes, celebration. In 114 years of solvent existence, 100 years of unbroken football league membership and 50 years of fandom, no Rochdale football club has EVER finished as high in the leagues whilst achieving relegation.
Ladies and gentlemen - I give you the HISTORY MAKERS.
Talking of the celebration, we were honoured to host our new special friends, the Speakingmans, who kept the whole squad entertained. I do not remember booking them as an act, but as I looked at the young lads laughing away I could only admire their skill in stitching us up. Is that the correct turn of phrase?
Talking of the Speakingmans,I was speaking to Joel about his fans protesting on Sunday and told him when I had my own revolting fans causing some bother, I sent the Speakingmans out to quell the riot. I think one of the better fans called them the TV tit with teeth. If only they had been our fans v Bradford.
Talking of big clubs, my mate Mauricio "The Poch" was in town with PSG today but he didn't swing by for some advice, surprisingly. If he had,he'd have found us working tremendously hard as we prepare for life in league one lite.
Talking of swapping divisions, I've been pondering changes that we haven't made yet as we march relentlessly forward. One thing that needs refreshing is our slogan - "Crede Signo" or crude signings in the Queens Engerlish.As we do not really make any signings of note I think a more pertinent phrase to be Praemium Defectum, which will adorn the badge, hats, scarves, entrance mat, and mugs from next season.
Talking of next season, we and in fact no one is, when it comes to season tickets. We may just keep it that .
Talking of talking, I was talking to the people at Wimbledon on Saturday,who suggested had we concentrated on getting more points on board, we may have stayed up. Well I was certainly up well past 11.

Dearest Kid Bingo
One of my cadre of interns has finally brought to my attention your recent email, and as ever my door is open, especially if you have a mic and camera.
Deepest apologies that you have had to wait for me to patronise you Bog Kleaner. It appears your email was lost among the incoming deluge of applications from talented people from all walks of life from as far away as Bacup and Westhoughton, Europe. No one works as hard as me,me, me or my team who are all on furlough so we have had to employ more of them. Did I tell you how hard working I am? And the most professional? Anything else is just fake news.
I note with interest that you had a job in customer services or something, which is highly commendable, so I am sure you can appreciate it when someone so steeped in a successful business career as me, me me can undoubtedly teach you a thing or two about it.
The only sure way to grow a business is to keep putting prices up. Of everything. Then if it does not sell, put it up some more because then it will mean more revenue. If it sells. I had a very successful job doing just that, but eventually judged staying there was a high price to pay so I moved on to create the 15th biggest company in the world. Of protractors. I then sold it when my partner bought me out and I ran another successful company until my dream job came up just about 2 years after my last pay packet.
I hope that you realise that even though I work so hard , harder than the hardest working hard worker in harworkville, I still have time for new fans like yourself and am so delighted that you have got yourself a blue Dale badge from our excellent choice at the club superstore that I set up.
So, Mr Bisto, what was it you wanted?
As ever, you servant
Best
D
