The Revolution
at 18:07 3 Aug 2013

Afternoon all, Spireite here who goes to Dale a fair amount with a mate.

Thought this would tickle you lot.

Got to Gigg Lane about 2:30 and queued up for a pie in the away end. Children of the revolution playing on the tannoy, "the revolution starts here" we were told, a few puzzled looks on CFC faces. About 10 local "yufff" giving verbal abuse to everyone walking past, more puzzled looks.

Subsequently quite a lot of aggro in the snack bar near the entrance. No alcohol on sale, no burgers left, pies nearly run out (before the majority of away fans even in the ground).

When quizzed some classic quotes from the tea ladies on duty:

"The stewards won't let us sell booze as they don't think they will be able to control you lot, they say there are too many of you here for them"

"We were told that 300 away fans would turn up so ordered pies and burgers accordingly"...there were 1,200 away fans there

To which some wag replied, "we'll it's no wonder you went out of business really is it?"

A few strains of "small town in Rochdale" really seemed to rile the locals too.

Viva la revolution. Tinpot.

Ps hope you lot as my second team have a great season.
