Full credit , Hill outwitted his rival and your football was a credit to the Division .
Unfortunately you won't come across such a weak spirited opponent every week . |  | | |  |

And that's the difference.
Thought you were quicker on the ball than us (hence our challenges which led to the cards) but team spirit is something that just can't be bought.
For what it's worth, think you'll do ok this season. |  |

Fantastic display from the defenders today and Lancashire was the pick of the lot i thought.
Hilly must have been feeding them raw meat this week because there was only ever going to be one team winning that game.
Regarding bURY, if you are a supporter tonight you must feel as though your team and manager have kicked you in the gut, a spineless display !!

Hendo for me. I'm not a massive fan of Rose but he had a solid game today, but how anyone could overlook Henderson I do not know, he was fantastic.
Lancashire was excellent too. |  |

Hendo seemed to get clattered endlessly and still get up and fly in to the next tackle,the most pleasing thing was the commitment to the cause and every player put their body on the line,the challenge from Reece near the wmg would only ever end in a clash of heads and the lad gave everything to win that header,well deserved from all concerned!!! | | | |

Lund is a great find, agree about that pass. He has a fantastic engine on him. But, for the first time this season that I've seen, I thought someone else was better today. | |

Yeah O'Connell marshalled a very disciplined defensive performance today. Was both committed in the tackle and intelligent in his positional play. |  | | |

I thought BBM was excellent and bossed the midfield. How many headers did he win!! Hendo's commitment and running - but with a product (take note Mr Tutte) - was magnificent. Tricky game (made more tricky being down to ten for so long) well dealt with. | |

Jamie Hoyland and Steve Eyre were the Radio Manchester summarisers. Hoyland in particular was scathing of bURY.
No passion, no pace, no ideas, no significant work-rate and no end product was his opinion. Steve Eyre (who ?) was mightily impressed with Dale, especially Matty Lund, both summarisers disagreed with the Vincenti red card decision by stating that it was 'harsh' to say the least.
Hoyland though that bURY were without a 'team spirit' and both agreed that Dale were well worthy of three points and that bURY were justly sent packing with no reward. |  |

Don't think BBM put a foot or head wrong all game today, he was superb. | |

Seriously? I don't think he completed a successful pass in the first half. Improved in the final third of the game, but until then the best you could say was that he was committed (like the rest of the lads). [Post edited 7 Sep 2013 23:48]

First half hour he put plenty wrong. Improved after that admittedly but still think that position needs strengthening. |  | | |

Bury offered nothing, even against our ten men. Improvement is needed for us to progress. Great win though and very happy with the 3 points. |  |

Wagg to Hoyland pre-match on GMR: "So Jamie, you must have played in a few of these Rochdale-bury derbies?"
Hoyland: "No, none Jimmy!"
Dearden to a Rochdale fan pre-match: "Who's your favourite Rochdale player?"
Fan: "Jason Kennedy ... but I haven't been since we got relegated." [Post edited 8 Sep 2013 0:52]

Bury are actually quite a slick outfit. They just lacked any kind of cutting edge. And, just like against Chesterfield, it was our determination that saw us through. If we play like that at home every week, we won't be dropping too many points. |  |

Agree that Bury are comfortable with the ball but as Fitz says no cutting edge. I think a few of us have been worried about certain aspects of the defence but to be fair, and having played some so called leading teams, we have hardly seen us overrun!! When we find the right balance in the front 6 and everyone is fully fit then we should see some scoring improvements. |  | | |

Yep, they did... And we put two past them... Something we didn't look like doing until we applied ourselves. We won't see many better sides at Spotland than Chesterfield this season. | |

Whilst I'm very pleased to have won the game and kept a clean sheet, it won't go down as a footballing classic.
The referee can take some blame for brandishing early yellow cards, but at the same time, Dale players were guilty of several stupid fouls all bar one of which were worthy of yellows. No complaints regarding the sending off. it was a tackle that shouldn't have been attempted by Vincenti.
Dale were comfortably the better footballing team and created almost all the chances, both before and after being reduced to ten men. I thought bury were poor...constantly giving the ball away when in decent areas of the pitch. I also thought that they looked dodgy in defence, and had Hogan been able to push on more, he would have caused their two lumbering centre backs real problems.
Their basic problem though was that they didn't know how to get at us, and only when Grimes came on did they have a clear sight at goal.
Thought that our best players were Lancashire & O Connell, closely followed by Lund, who recovered well after an un Lund like opening to the game.
BBM had an anonymous first half, but did very well in the second half.
Special praise to George D. That was as good a shift as I've seen him play, and he looked knackered when he was subbed. Anyone who can't see how important he was to the team might as well give up.
I have to say that I thought Bennett had a mare until the last quarter of the game. He can and should be doing much better with reading the game and distribution.
Finally, regarding Grimes....when he came on, a large percentage of the Main Stand booed him. I honestly can't remember the last former Dale player to be booed on a return. One for TVOS? |  | | |
