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?

Poll: So who do you believe - Hendo or the Board?

Odd one from the Brackley game.
The videos from the game will support this.
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.

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?

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.

There will be quite some detail released re questions about exits, stewards etc. Discussion felt a separate report aside from the CAB meeting minutes was worthwhile at this point in time.

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

From being stalked by predatory vultures
To being the GM town of culture
National league positions are precarious
But we dont care none of us
As the vultures can choke on their ulcers

Or summat.

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

Worst last word ever but here goes...

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!
