| CAB meeting 9th March on 18:55 - Mar 2 with 2317 views | 100notout | Not a major issue in the overall scheme of things but I know of quite a few people who would like to see this changed so could you raise the issue of using / not using the exit of the Sandy Lane at the Wilbutts Lane side? I can understand this might not be used where there is a large away following but not when (as on many occasions) the away following is quite small. Why is it never used? Is this club policy or on the instructions of GMP? I am aware that there are repercussions from the Spennymoor game last season and the whole subject of crowd control / segregation is under constant review. On that point could away fans be kept in for 10/15 minutes after the game? |  |

On The Sandy, we counted 15 Brackley fans in the away end. Turns out there were 17. Why were there FIVE stewards operating in that end? Seems like a big waste of resources and possible unnecessary cost to the club as ticket sales would be known prior to kick off. [Post edited 4 Mar 0:46]

| CAB meeting 9th March on 12:15 - Mar 4 with 1803 views | D_Alien | As per my post on the Brackley thread: Rochdale is currently the Gtr. Manchester "town of culture" Could the club consider using this opportunity to collaborate with the organisers to raise awareness of the great season Dale are having, and try to bring more people through the turnstiles for the remainder of the season? Football is very much part of the town's culture, and it's a global game involving all cultures, so no reason for us not to be included in this initiative which prides itself on 'inclusivity' For instance, how about inviting the local "poet laureate" to a game as a guest, prior to penning an Ode to Dale? https://www.rochdalecreates.co [Post edited 4 Mar 12:31]

Good post. |  |

| CAB meeting 9th March on 17:44 - Mar 4 with 1566 views | Maddens_Mercenaries | There have been some posts about the issue of exiting the Car Park on foot from Pearl Street to Wilbutts Lane, with the gate being closed causing a narrowing of the exit route. Fully understand the Clubs repsonse regarding the Ambulance route, but surely to alleviate the issues and make the route safer, the club could utilise the lights fitted to the Rear of the WMG Stand, which would then effectively light the area and highlight the two concrete stumps with cardboard around them. The lights have not been on either Pre or Post match for some time. |  | |  |

As a "poetry fanatic" you can step into the breach and write the Ode to Dale instead |  |

Not bard at all... Owed to Dale Now leading the league of the nation We're safer from relegation That in seasons yet previous Despite the devious Attempts to bankrupt and derail The shame of directors found guilty Replaced by the pride of McNulty With Ogdens to spare We're not short of a chair Who through and through is for Dale |  |

A devious roger once thought He'd an empire that he never bought He payed himself loads And some other toads, But eventually he was caught Be gone said shareholders good and true We've had enough of you Then one dark night He recruited some $h!t€ And thought he'd put us in the poo He wasn't clever at all Of rules he knew fook all The league stepped in Showed he was dim So onwards did decency call The legal challenges did pail Faced with "Up The Dale Not For Sale" United we stood The forces of good And the hateful fookers did fail Along came the Ogdens Almighty Honest, not like roger's $h!ti€s. They won't get a ban They're the people who can Get us back to league 2, alrighty! |  | |  |
