My virgin post on this site,have read the threads on here for a couple of seasons and thought I would join in.This post aimed at Dale fans who stand/sit at the Crown Oil and listen to the opposition chants/witness 3,000 in the Wilbutts ,of these so called “superior clubs” and who go to work places on a Monday morning alongside people who support the so called “bigger clubs” and get the history lesson!! Let’s have some examples if coming face to face with some of our League 1 rivals this season. Bury, I remember the bloody banner at Gigg pointing at us “Trophy virgins”....ok, they won the cup twice over a hundred years ago. The here and now,the club will be lucky to survive liquidation with a 12 point deduction if it does!! Bolton,a rich history indeed. Deep down though,show me a true Trotter who wasn’t embarrassed by the Normid store jutting out at Burnden and who is truly happy out in Horwich. The here and now,minus 12 points before they start a season in League 1!! Coventry fans annoyed me last season singing that our support was f****** shit. The here and now,yet another season in League 1 for this “huge” club and I am planning a day trip to St Andrews to watch Dale play them. Say no more. Next,Sunderland,40,000 capacity ground. Wasn’t happy with our chairman treating them like Real Madrid,they didn’t impress me as a promotion side,and so it proved. And we go on to relegated sides who came to the Crown Oil as the big boys...Bradford,Scunthorpe. We are about to start our 6th season in League 1 with possibly 1.5 million in the bank courtesy of Craig Dawson and Dan Adshead transfer. So next time these “big boy” clubs come marching in the Regal and up to Spotland be inwardly smug. Up the Dale |
