Could anyone save me a trip to Touchstones and tell me when exactly Mike Ferguson was sacked in the 1978-79 season ? |  | | |  |

The Droylsden 1-0 defeat at home is still the worst I have ever felt as a Dale fan ( and there was a lot of competition )& not surprised he was sacked within a week |  | | |

Some of their fans were violent scum too, One Dale fan had a dart thrown at him. It was an embarrassing day. |  |

WellI I would rather be poked in the eye with a stick than have to go through that game again. | | | |

Yes it was bloody awful. At that time we seemed to lose to Non League teams regularly. | |

We lost to the cones in training, despite manager Ferguson having our scouts watch them. | | | |

He had been a good player for us, and had a very good career. Just shows good players don’t always become good managers. Mind you, he would have had next to no funds to build a team. | |

I remember an article in the Rochdale Observer that he tried to sign a footballer from Akranes who later became a superstar in Italy Simmonson or something like that lucky boy! |  | | |

He was nothing more than average as a player with us, and was at the end of his long career.
He was clueless as a manager, all Dale managers are constrained by tight budgets. The good ones still manage to find bargain basement players and build teams that have been better than the sum of their parts.
Sadly Mike just didnt have it as a manager, which probably explains why he didnt emerge in significant positions at other clubs.
He passed away last year. | | | |

Yes he was a poor manager, and like you say other managers found good players and moulded decent teams , better than him, with no money. Suppose I was trying to make an excuse for him. | |
