The only way is ex Players

There has been a number of former Dale players who have switched clubs this Summer. Some you'll know, some may have gone under the radar.

Some were proper Dale players, some made cameo loan periods whilst one or two others filled a spot on the bench for the reserve team game only. But they can at the very least claim to have had a spell at Dale.

We've picked up on the following transfers:

Rob Atkinson - Grimsby to Fleetwood

Jon Boardman - Hungerford to Aylesbury United

Guy Branston - Torquay to Bradford City

Will Buckley - Watford to Brighton

Callum Byrne - Dale to Hyde

Liam Dickinson - Barnsley to Plymouth Argyle

Matt Done - Dale to Barnsley

Raphale Evans - joined Northwich Victoria

Frank Fielding - Blackburn to Derby County

Dave Flitcroft - Dale to Barnsley (assistant manager)

Danny Glover - Worcester to Nuneaton

Alan Goodall - Stockport to free transfer

Keith Hill - Dale to Barnsley (manager)

Ryan Jones - Northwich Vics to Richmond Kickers (USA)

Kelvin Lomax - Shrewsbury Town to free transfer

Alan McLoughlin - Senior Academy Coach at Portsmouth

Lewis Montrose - Wycombe to Gillingham

Glenn Murray - Brighton to Crystal Palace

Chris Oldfield - Aberdeen (on trial)

David Perkins - Colchester to Barnsley

Adam Rundle - Morecambe to free transfer

Deane Smalley - Oldham to Oxford

James Spencer - Northwich to free transfer

Scott Spencer - Lincoln to free transfer

Lee Thorpe - Fleetwood to AFC Fylde

Simon Whalley - Burton to free transfer

Owain Fon Williams - Dale to Tranmere Rovers

Robbie Williams - Dale to Plymouth Argyle

Grenfell Tower by Luther27

With the report due tomorrow will the victims get answers or will this turn into yet another travesty of British Justice.

Knees-up Mother Brown #24 by wessex_exile

After another weekend break to spend a very enjoyable afternoon with Spireite Craig watching the U’s get a well-deserved point at runaway leader Mansfield Town, followed by promotion back to the EFL for Chesterfield, the matchday Saturdays left before the end of the season are running out. So, given I’m away again next Saturday again to join 9,000+ for the visit of Planet Hollywood, I’m going to slip in a Good Friday special ahead of what will undoubtedly be two extremely important fixtures in deciding the fate of Colchester United. On Monday the family are arriving for their traditional Easter Egg Hunt (and obligatory roast dinner), so here goes for the visit of t’other Exiles to the JobServe. Come on Col U!

Following a disappointing result at Holker Street, exacerbated by yet more poor refereeing to deny us a clear penalty in the first half and award a non-existent free-kick to give the Bluebirds a first half lead (albeit the free-kick was an absolute blinder), and the inevitable postponement of the Donny game on Tuesday, the U’s now find themselves in the relegation zone. It is what it is, and with seven of our remaining 11 games at home, our destiny is still very much in our own hands – but everyone has to do their job, both on and off the (repurposed) pitch.

Thanks to a combination of postponements and a trip to Sutton following the U’s, it has been three weeks since the last blog, as the U’s prepare to face a very tricky opponent in Barrow AFC. Since they were voted out of the football league in 1972 (arguably thanks to Ronnie Radford’s screamer against Newcastle in the Edgar Street mud), the Bluebirds spent 48 years in the non-league wilderness before their return following the Covid-19 curtailment to the 2019/20 season. Some are surprised at how well they’re doing this season, but probably shouldn’t be – under new manager Pete Wild they finished a very respectable 9th last season and are clearly aiming to improve on that this time around. Mind you, we’ve got our own new management team in place too, and whilst wins are proving elusive right now, we’re certainly making ourselves a team hard to beat.

Bill Shankly once said that form is temporary, class is permanent. He was of course correct, but let’s hope never more so than today’s visit to Wetherby Road to take on the form side of League 2, Harrogate Town. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to say the Sulfurites have defied the expectations of most pundits, many tipping them to be in another relegation scrap this season. But, long-standing manager (and former player) Simon Weaver has turned things around, and they currently sit just two places and two points outside the play-offs. Weaver was rightly awarded the Sky Bet League 2 Manager of the Month for January – hope he looks after it, because it’ll be Danny’s soon.
