Their keeper repaid the favour to give us a goal, though between them Hendo and Mitchell tried their best to not score. Another poor performance. 1 win in 6, 2 goals in 6. |

They also only won 2 of their last 11 games falling from almost certain automatic promotion into the play off places. |

They also picked up that McNulty is statuesque and says nothing on the sideline seemingly happy with what he sees. |

Nearly 500 minutes of football and we've scored 1 goal in that period. Different players, same boring system, we can't break them down and as usual we've had more of the ball but the better chances have fallen to the opponent. Calamitous goal to concede but they put the ball in danger areas, all of our crosses have floated like a feather straight to their keeper. |

As others have said, they were everything we weren't. Organised, physical, clinical, up for it. There was a stark difference between their manager who was barking instructions and encouragement to his players even to the point you could hear him telling his defenders they could afford to relax when they had a corner. To ours who stands there, hands in pockets looking clueless once the players cross the line. |

Poor game of football, neither team created anything clear cut and we go home lucky that Waller guessed the right way for a poor penalty. |

It's a huge game now tomorrow. In our last 7 away league games we've only scored more than one goal once, I have a feeling we'll need to improve on that tomorrow to win. We started the season winning 4 out of our first 6 away games but since then have won 2 in 8. More in hope than expectation but Jim really needs to drum into the players the importance of this game in the season given Halifax's proximity to us in the league. [Post edited 19 Feb 0:24]

I don't think this team is good enough to win the league but I do think its good enough to get into the playoffs. If we don't then I do think its down to the manager rather than the players but we'll see what happens. |

In 31 years of watching Dale that's comfortably in the top 10 worst games I've seen at Spotland. Playing a team as bad as them we had one shot on target which was a hit and hope from 20+ yards. They had equal chance to score than we did and we were completely out of ideas. |

We're playing a team that concedes nearly 3 goals a game away from home and we've created next to nothing. It's not even a matter of whether we're good or bad. It's just so unbelievably boring to watch. |

We were awful tonight. Pedestrian and never posed a threat to Oldham and they knew it. They managed the game well knowing that we weren't likely to score. Disappointing after Saturdays performance. |

It was clear last week that that corner wasn't fit to be played on. Not sure why we did then either. At what point do the league step in and say, come on guys... |

We don't know. Will it be a cash injection? Will it affect the playing budget if its hundreds of thousands? |

Surely this is where the benefit of having wealthy owners should come in. We're not expecting them to spend millions on players and wages but the pitch is integral to having a football club and a working pitch is needed to make it sustainable. We must be losing thousands to these postponements and potentially even more if our fixture congestion catches up to us. |

This is where I think we're heading. The pitch clearly can't handle any adverse weather and we're only a 3rd of the way through winter so there's plenty more to come. When will we get to the point where we have to look at playing games away from Spotland and actually doing something with the pitch? What can we do at this time of year? |

Great 3 points in the end but my God was it boring to watch. |

Defeat lies at the managers feet on this one I'm afraid. We've gone from 2-0 down to 3-2 and he's killed all momentum with the tactics and the subs inviting them to come and beat us. |

Theres no hiding from the fact that we were really poor tonight and offered absolutely nothing going forward. Neither were they but they took their chance and go home with 3 points. Let's hope they regroup and produce something better on Tuesday. |
