How do you know the ins and outs of what has gone on with in the club. Doubt Jones is whiter than white in all of this. Like i say, I back the manager as he has the clubs interests highest, as if the club doesnt do well, he doesnt, simple, whereas a player its easy to shine in a bad team. |  |

Anyone considered the possibility that Jonah may have picked this fight deliberately because a payoff and move is more attractive than 46 games back in League Two ? | | | |

I don't think we missed Jones at all today. Kennedy and Tutte looked a better partnership for me and it was good to have two central midfield players who complemented each other. Kennedy and Jones have always been a one paced partnership. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Who's saying we played well? We won though, that's what counts, and it made us leave the ground feeling a bit better than usual. | | | |

Why ask a question and then answer it? When the two Joe's came on we looked a lot better balanced side and had much more drive. It was obvious that JC was trying out players with next season in mind. Some things worked such as Edwards, Minihan and the Kennedy/Tutte partnership.
Others didn't especially Twaddle. I also thought that both central strikers struggled for long periods of the game. | | | |

I do think we need to be careful to not get carried away with the late comeback. For 75mins, it was as bad as any performance all season. Tutte needs game time in that role to full develop but he deserves the chance to do so |  | | |

Yes. 30 seconds before we made it 2-1, Edwards made a very good save to stop Exeter making it 3-0. A lead that wouldn't have flattered them. |  | | |

Wasn't Eyre the one who agreed to his 2 year deal on a very good wage as well? A deal that Keith Hill would not have sanctioned. | | | |

Eyre had every opportunity to drop him.
Or sub him.

All we can do is speculate about what's gone on behind the scenes, but I'm actually encouraged that Coleman (and/or Bell) have the balls to drop Jones, whatever the reason. Gary Jones is a Dale legend, that is not up for discussion, but no man is bigger than the club.
Dale fans seem unanimous in their view that a fresh start is required. That fresh start is not possible while Gary Jones is at the club, such is his influence (positive or negative). I'd love to see Jonah finish the season in the team, and on good terms, then secure a nice 2 year deal to prolong his excellent career elsewhere. |  | | |

Based on what Coleman said on the radio, there is no need for that to happen. | |

For good or ill, few people have more autocratic power than the manager of an English professional football club. We saw this when Parkin set his cap against Paddy, a potentially priceless asset of infinitely more long-term value to the club than the manager. In the hundred-or-so-year history of the club, only in the last five has the manager been of more value than the players they often chose to overlook. |

I've got to say, i thought at first it was simply Jones letting his ego as Mr. Rochdale thinking he knew best before i knew what the allegation was, however if what has been posted is true, then i've gotta say Jones was right to react how he did. | |

Well thats the crux of the matter isnt it really, I have probably heard the same version as you and if its true then the captain was 100% right to react as he did. This incident as set the alarms bell ringing for me regarding the management team, lets not forget this is also Jonahs benefit season and we as fans have been contributing financially by attending functions etc to honour his service to the club.
The fans are treated like mugs by this club and as a life long supporter i am quickly becoming dissilusioned with the arrogance shown by everybody connected to the club, lets have a proper statement regarding what happened last week because if its as serious as suggested by a lot of fans then a proper investigation needs to take place and disciplinary action needs taking against the right person.
To just take the managers word and sweep everything under the carpet is setting a dangerous precedent at the club and will only result in more incidents occuring.
To completley drop the captain from the squad amid terrible speculation and then insult the fans by not even giving a reasonable explanation is bound to cause unrest among the fans, i take it Jonahs benefit season as now come to a shuddering halt ?
This club seems to be rapidly moving from a respected professional football club to a amatuerish laughing stock and its about time the Chaiman and directors got a grip of the situation. This rant isnt about Jonah not being in the starting eleven because he has been just as responsible as the other players for the seasons demise, its about the whole general demeanour of the club.
We have two new kits which we need to sell, there is no consultation with the fans and the only place they are advertised is in the club programme,its a joke.
Is the club just being used as a Saturday club for the Chairman and directors ? I ask that question because they dont seem at all interested in the day to day functions of the club.
As a fan i am getting sick to the back teeth of keep forking out money hand over fist to keep the club running whilst persons employed by the club just sit there in their own little comfort zone, these people are laughing at us, they must think we are mugs !! Lets remember its us as fans who are paying their wages and for the last 5 years how much potential income has passed us by ?
The Chairman needs to employ a troubleshooter and set all the staff targets, give them all 6 month appraisals and if they cant come up to standard then replace them with persons more competent.
A couple of weeks ago i purchased two new season tickets, the dishevelled, disinterested female (who is the face of the club to any visitors to reception) who served me didnt once make eye contact, she huffed and puffed her way around the office and then slapped the tickets on the counter, it was such a effort for her and i payed nearly 500 quid for the pleasure.
If there is no improvement in the overall running of the club next season i wont be renewing my season tickets and i mean that !! [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Spot on.
Hillcroft where willing to offer a 12month deal of take it or leave it..
As hillcroft must have known jones was almost burnt out.
Eyre had a meeting with jones and offered him a 2 yr deal to stop him going to bradford...if i remember correctly. |  |

I think it was Dunphy who brokered the Jones deal, with SE acting as the front man.
The club had just lost it's complete backroom staff (apart from Beech & Ellis whom Hill didn't rate good enough to take)
We had also lost Dawson, Wiseman & Done.
The last thing the Board wanted fans to see was the captain leaving us as well. |  | | |
