My mic wouldn't have been much use anyway as I've still not got my voice back from Wembley!

I don't know who exactly it is you think I am TS but I think you've got me confused with someone else cause none of that makes any sense to me. I certainly never fought Bottomley's corner for a start and you can go back through my posts and listen to 90+ podcasts worth of me asking people for their opinions and spouting my own nonsense ones to clarify that.

Two other people have also messaged asking who it is you think I am so I'm fairly sure you've got the wrong person here.

And you can keep telling yourselves the reason that they're becoming rarer and rarer is due to 'subservience'.

Enjoy the game all. Up the Dale

Because it's so utterly tiresome that it leads to more and more other posters doing the first two things from your list.

If we're talking about the long-term future of the club and the reason for it's existence, then obviously the supporters are much more important than any group of players.

That wasn't what you were talking about in your original post though, your original post was about motivating the players/fans for Saturday and in that context, the fans are nowhere near as important.

Aye, 'subservience' is the reason this forum is dying a death, not the fact the same 2 or 3 posters have to write fourteen dissertations on every half decent thread and make it all about themselves.

Fans are not equally as important, ridiculous thing to say.

Yep... I'll be honest, I wouldn't have even known about the reaction had it not been discussed in our pod whatsapp ad nauseum since Monday.

Paul blamed Elon Musk but I blame them lot!

If we never enjoyed watching Dale until we'd 'achieved' something it wouldn't half be a miserable existence.

I'm by no means Jim's biggest fan, I thought the Brackley debacle was a disgrace, but I think the wins at Carlisle and FGR have been fantastic. Not often we're in this kind of form, you've got to at least enjoy it to some extent while you can.

Up the table-topping Dale.

Tell you what, I've not really look at the messageboard for a while... 30 points from 12 games, away wins against two of the favourites for the league, 1 point clear at the top with two games in hand, I bet it's a much happier place than it used to be...

Wait, never mind.

I've not seen Whatmuff play yet but the fact we're clearly going to rely on him as first-choice this season has actually made me a bit excited. He must be very, very, very good for his age.

Thanks for conducting this interview and writing this article Fitz. It's nice to get some proper insight into Jim's thought process instead of the standard soft-serve questions from the club media. Would love to see more of it.

Unfortunately for me personally, all it's done is make me feel even less connected to that thought process of Jim's though.

“Quite simply, most of our players had never been in those kinds of situations before" - had the Spennymoor players been in loads of FA Trophy semi-finals?

"Last season, in any other division in the Football League − not all of them, but most of them − we were one place away from an automatic promotion place." - Only one league has three automatic promotion places so not only is that not relevant cause we're not in the Football League, it's also not true. And what's the point here anyway? If we were in a different league, we'd have been closer to the automatic promotion places but still not finished inside them? Great.

He's not in the social media circle yet somehow fully aware that people don't like him using the word 'clout.'

Stuff about being 'deeply connected' and 'new curiosities' gives me Flitcroft vibes.

Now that the dust has settled from last season I really don't think Jim's doing a bad job overall and certainly hasn't been bad enough to get the boot, yet every time I listen to him or read from him, I just find myself wishing I hadn't.

I agree with the majority of this post, but my issue is those crunch matches and the frustration is that in a league where you have to be either completely dominant and win the league, or show a mental rigidity to get through tough play-off fixtures, I don't see us having the right attributes to achieve either of those under Jim.

We'll go into the play-offs with a fanbase that's pretty disillusioned, a team that has little confidence of seeing out a game away from home, a manager that has a shocking record in more high-profile games and without a group of our best performing players.

If we were playing 3 home games against mid-table teams in the play-offs I'd fancy us. Given that we'll have to play an away game against a team like York or Forest Green, we might as well cede our place now.

Shows how difficult it is to be competitive and sustainable in the lower leagues. County have increased ticket prices and are still selling out regularly and still so far away from being sustainable.
