Dale were relegated after a late Chesterfield comeback condemned us to a life back in League Two.

Whilst the relegation may have been confirmed today, it had been a case of "when" rather than "if", and despite Jean Louis Akpa Akrpo's opener, it was the same old story as Dale lost their third away game on the trot.

The result was undeserved as a spririted Dale performance took the game to the home side from the start, and a home victory never looked to be on the cards.

Aside from the result and relegation, the game was noted for a second half show of support from the travelling supporters.

If we are honest then we deserve to go down as we are the worst team in this league, we have lost to every one of the bottom teams with the exception of Walsall.
Just seeing JC on Sky walking across the pitch reminded me of my grandad and I fear for us next season as JK and Tutte will find better teams and all the loan players will return to their clubs.Thanks a bunch Dunphy you really have fxxxxd up big time and perhaps it is time for you to go.........

I have read with interest geraldo's comments throughout the season, he claims ro have supported the dale for years, a most unusual form of support constant moaning, criticism and laying of blame to all and sundry associated with our club. Yes it has been a disapointing season compared to the highs of the Keith Hill era however it has been nothing like as bad as the Dolan or Barrowball tenures of the past. Now he is having a go at our chairman I think perhaps he should remember chairman in charge of stockport or darlington and be thankful that we have someone in charge who will ensure that we have a club to support in the football league. We go again next season UP THE DALE

For attention of Essexdale;

If you look at my posts following SE's appontment you will see that all the reasons I quoted against his appointment came true.Dunphy has failed us by not admitting his mistake early enough and then compounded the mistake by allowing Beech 6 games during which he got 3 points.On appointing JC he should have released some of the "warchest" he boasts about - surely it was better to spend to stay up than to get up?? Don't assume next season will be a walk in the park.....
