Word of mouth 10:09 - Dec 23 with 4417 views | Daley_Lama | I have it on good authority from a very reliable source that today there is a small degree of happiness amongst a select few Rochdale fans. These fans, known as ‘realists’ are reported to be over the moon that Rochdale not only won, but also away, a long long way away, where we normally get nowt, on a cold December saturday. It is rumoured that some of these were even happy for Calum Camps and even more remarkably, Jordan Williams. This sweeping mood of bon homie has been put down to The Magic of Christmas. It’s even rubbing of on others, with a decrease in ‘our manager is a clueless meglomaniac’ posts and questioning of individual players. It wouldn’t be Christmas without Santa bringing bagfuls of transfer rumours and in the know posts, but they can all wait for the new year, that is of course if we still have a club in January given us being less financially stable than an umployed gamblaholic and the four horsemen may ride out if we lose to Blackpool on Boxing Day. Deck the Hill with loads of money Fa la la la la, buy a strika We should soon see old Joe Bunney Fa la la la la, lanky winga | ![](/images/avatars/1088.gif) |

Word of mouth on 11:01 - Dec 23 with 4209 views | SunningDale | Of course people are happy for Jordan Williams, not rating him is not the same as actively wanting to see him fail. Sure, there are some negative posters on this board but equally there are some who try too hard to prove just how positive they are, which is just as irritating. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Word of mouth on 11:07 - Dec 23 with 4175 views | rochdale_ranger | Very happy with the win. Don’t know how we played so can’t really comment. Just a shame we can’t do it against shite like Plymouth.

Word of mouth on 12:12 - Dec 23 with 4040 views | YouTubeDale | That win yesterday was a Christmas present from Keith and his players to the best fans in the country. The best Christmas present I will receive this year and that includes the socks and underpants. I sense that Keith has sharpened his pencil since the Plymouth game and taken on board some of the criticism from this Forum. That is the job of the supporter to get management and players back in line. We have vented our feelings here, not word of mouth but word of th’internet and Keith is watching this space for feedback. Talk about spirit, to his credit Keith has maintained that at the club so far, and you could feel it again in yesterday’s performance. MJ Williams certainly upping his games recently and adding a solidity which we really need. Jordan Williams getting a deserved goal after all his endeavour. Moore stepping in and doing well, Perkins ,the wise man coming on at the end with his good touches, and Camps providing the cherry on the cake. But let’s not get carried away, we still haven’t sorted out our defence. How on earth were they allowed to get that front header which looped to the back post (should have been defended) and nodded into the net. Two mistakes in one movement. Sorry to be a scrooge but we can’t give any more gifts away over this festive period, we have been far too generous. Once again, thank you for the 3 points. That has cheered us up no end. | ![](/images/avatars/1550.gif) |

Word of mouth on 12:18 - Dec 23 with 4023 views | aleanddale | something close to our 27 point return in the next 23 games will see us safe in league 1 for another season. This is still not enough for some. It is still a big ask as some good sides in our league but with some luck and hard work / application lets hope we get to 54 points with at least 2 or 3 games to spare! Merry Christmas - I am now going for a few cheeky pints at the medicine tap and they always taste sweeter after Dale have secured 3 valuable points. Up The Dale.

Why not go for a New Year reboot, and rename our club Real Dale? If Madrid can find success that way, why not us? It wouldn't be long before someone massaged a banner with Real Deal on it... | ![](/images/avatars/1219.gif) |

Is that a challenge to R Kershaw to come up with a song for a baldy Zidane or are we not bestowing that honour on Keith just yet? It was, after all, only one (more) away win. | ![](/images/avatars/17584.gif) |

R Kershaw will be gnashing his teeth now that your bro, Daley_ , has entered his Christmas Carol (not 'er again?) for Dalesong of the Year. It's got my vote | ![](/images/avatars/1219.gif) |
