They have a goalkeeper called Harker……surely no relation a couple of generations later….? I seem to remember that Chris finished his career at Stockton and died in Darlington?
Woking have won tonight in the FA Trophy so will be playing in the next round on Saturday 1st February when we should have gone there irrespective of whether or not we win on Wednesday.
Might it be worth having a word with the likes of Bradford City? They spent a lot of time on their pitch last summer after a lot of postponements last season?
Amidst all this is someone at the club going to ask why, with a hardcore of 2000+ season ticket holders, appparently only 300 tickets had been sold to home fans by this morning.
Is it the uncertainty over the weather and the state of the pitch. The vagaries of a fixture list which means that people get out of the habit of going to Spotland? By my reckoning Dale have had two Saturday 3.00pm kickoffs since the end of September. The perceived relatively weakness of the visitors? The closure of the Sandy? Perceived weaknesses in the ticketing system? The style of football? Lack of money straight after Christmas? An amalgam of all the above?
Something will have to be done urgently. The next round of the FA Trophy is timetabled for Saturday 1st February with the draw presumably on Monday. What takes priority on a Tuesday? The FA Trophy or the NL Trophy? We certainly don’t want to end up like Halifax last season, playing “home” games at places like Accrington and Chesterfield.
