As Latics fans are openly discussing coming into the home end on their fora and the authorities have decided that it's not all-ticket, despite making so many less attractive matches all-ticket in the past, what is being done to prevent disorder?
The accent/postcode check isn't going to work so all we are left with is a Dale-related trivia question which has to be answered correctly at the turnstiles to guarantee admission to the home stands.
Question 1: Between 1993 and 1996, which colour socks did Rochdale wear only once?

I am not an idiot and well past the hooligan days but I will defend my friends or fellow Dale fans from any Biffo who decides to act up and threaten decent dale fans trying to enjoy a game. I also know there are many more like me in all areas of the ground so any biffo thinking of causing a scene should think very long and hard before doing so!
Surely all their potential trouble causers are all past it now and hopefully have grown up them all no longer being "Young"

Tazzy, it's a common mistake made by "the young" to think that people get wiser as they get older. Some do, but you've got to have a brain that works properly for the wisdom to filter through!
For those who haven't, the only thing limiting their ongoing aggressive stupidity is when physical frailty sets in.

Whoever is chosen won't have an easy game
I agree, I think it's going to be a decent game with a few goals. There bound to be a bit of local media interest so lets hope it's a good advertisment for both clubs

Ryan - i recon you are a youngish fella.
A nice enough youngish fella I will give you that. Debate on this board is always welcome - not like other message boards i could mention.
Life has rules - This is our home game and we can accomodate 3200 of you. I am sorry we dont play at a bigger stadium but thats life and 3200 is more than enough week in and week out.
we have season ticket holders in all other areas who have paid to sit where they like to sit.
Its not worth the agro and bad will moving these Dale fans and setting up a potential for conflict for pro rata very little cash in return ( the additional policing costs would wipe any extra money out )
so back to the rules. You all know that if you have a ticket for the away end as a club we will do our best to make sure you all have a great / safe matchday experience.
WE CANNOT ACCOMODATE ANY MORE!!
And again. I dont think many on here are bothered if 1000 Biffos sit in the home end as long as they pay there money and come and go quietly.
No doubt some Oldham fans will be in the home ends - but that doesnt mean you are right or that these fans have a devine right to be there.
Enjoy the game.. enjoy the day.
Pop back on here on Monday and let us know what you thought of the game and Spotland in general.
Fair enough, I will accept that the allocation should have been sufficient. However, I'm more interested in what the strategy for preventing trouble is as fans are segregated for a reason.
As for Spotland I've been three times before (the 0-0 where Davies was sent off and Hughes missed a pen, it was either the JPT or League Cup, I think we won on pens, I've been as a neutral once against, I think, Gillingham it was a few years back and final game of the season and the 3-2 two years ago). A ground I must admit I really like, smart in my opinion, made better by the fact it's a local derby.

It is a great view from that stand - and looks superb when its full. Looking forward to a cracking contest.

I know a few Owdham hoolies or whatever youd like to call them....? I received a text this week to watch my back as there are a 'good number' coming into our end for 1 sole reason, and it isnt to watch the game!!! So personally i'm expecting some incident/s to occur.

However clever they think they are they will stand out like a sore thumb and be wonderfully outnumbered so all the best with their plans

Ha. Someone's been on the wind up. There'll be a fair few in your ends but not many that daft enough to start ballooning in the ground and getting themselves 3 year bans. No doubt there'll be a few 'offs' here and there but I wouldn't be worried about punches to back of the head.

Just been sent a text saying one of our female programme sellers has been attacked outside the Sandy Lane end by a group of Latics morons. Not seen it myself to comment but my mate is enraged by the lack of response by Police and stewards.
If I hadn't seen such riches, I could live with being poor

It should have been more difficult for the away fans to come in our stands. One suggestion I have is that you receive a voucher at the two games before this and you can only get in if you have a voucher
