I see that Carlisle have released Thomas Holy.
Very surprised to read he was 3rd choice with them.
Would be a great signing for us. A six foot nine inch goalkeeper that dominates the box and is good with his feet.
Always thought he put fear into strikers with his physical presence. |

On his day Sinclair would be a valuable asset to the team. He started off the season on fire however this didn't last for long enough. I suppose his consistent inconsistency is the reason his career is in the lower reaches of the football pyramid.
It is probably likely that he will shine for a period of time at another club. Just like Campbell and Newby are doing at Solihull and Altrincham.
However on balance it is probably the right decision to let him go. |

I am also in the camp that we should retain both EEL and Rodney.
At this level EEL is as good or not better than the majority of centre halves.
Rodney since his return has made a hell of a difference to our attacking threat. He is strong, quick and packs a powerful shot. If he remains fit for a full season he would easily get 20 plus goals.
Obviously though none of know what offers they may have had elsewhere or what their wage demands are.
Time will tell. |

The statement is wonderful reading. I cannot help feeling that we have won footballs version of The Apprentice.
Instead of Lord Sugar and his experts guiding and investing in a business we have Sir Peter Ogden.
Hopefully good times are to follow and this project must be supported by as many people as possible. |

Reply | Club Appeal Red Card..
at 12:27 6 Apr 2024
I was one who thought the appeal shouldn't go ahead simply because I saw Oldhams appeal rejected for what I thought was a lesser infringement.
Glad to say I was wrong. Lets hope Mitchell now gets the winner. |

I think it unlikely that the red would be overturned if we made an appeal simply because Oldham recently had Fondop sent off and lost their appeal for something less innocuous.
This was highlighted on TNT's coverage of the Alty v Oldham game yesterday. The commentator and pundits were bewildered to say the least how it was not overturned.
Suggest we just save ourselves the £500 and put it to better use. |

I travel from the Leeds area and have read potentially it could re-open within the next hour or so. Would appreciate any more specific updates from anyone in the know. |

Not sure that he needs to prove his ability. He played for Salford in League 2 last year and has made 2 appearances in the Championship this year.
Probably its more likely that Huddersfield want to ensure he gets some game time as he is 3rd choice there. |

Jacob Chapman signs from Huddersfield until the end of the season.Perhaps Brooks is not coming back after international duty. |

Its good to hear the positive comments about the Chairman in the process. I can't help but feel that sometimes he unfairly gets bad press.
I am not one of those 'in the know' and would like to think of him as being someone who looks after the best interests of the club. |

An excellent result that brings a boost to the Club, players, supporters and staff during a difficult period.
Some great individual performances particularly Cian Hayes who turned their defenders inside out.
Pleased to see Mellor getting praise as well, as fans have been pretty scathing about him in the past.
It was also good for Brooks to get a clean sheet and a win. He was great last night.
Thought Mitchell worked his socks off but his final touch was just lacking. I'm sure it will improve as he gets over the rustiness of his long lay off.
All in all lots of positivity last night. Long may it continue. |

There may well be an injury to EEL or George Nevitt that has not yet been announced.
We are in the habit of making strange loan signings i.e Murray & Mather so who knows the reasoning behind the latest one. |

Thread | Where are the Sams?
at 11:21 18 Feb 2024
On Feb 1st the club announced the signings of Sam Murray and Sam Mather from Man Utd. It looked as though we had pulled off a bit of a coup and I for one was looking forward to seeing these 2 obviously talented players appearing for us.
Fast forward almost 3 weeks and 3 fixtures and they are nowhere to be seen. In fact i cannot recall any mention of them on the official site.
What is the point if they are not going to play? It completely baffles me and I would love to hear a valid reason. |

Like many others I no longer live in Rochdale and have been travelling to games from Yorkshire for over 35 years.
Yesterday was so frustrating in many ways. The football was not enjoyable to watch and it was compounded by awful journeys to and from the game.
We clearly have the ability but for some reason we play a style of football that is not working. Opposing teams have easily worked us out and must look forward to playing us.
It needs to change quickly. Jim has been given a lot of leeway for the circumstances in which he has to manage but his credits have virtually run out.
Football is a results driven business and ours have not been good enough. |

Agree about the strongest 16 comment. Its just the correct 11 in my opinion were not in the starting line up.
In addition we also have the 2 players from Man Utd waiting in the wings. Is there any likelihood that they will make an appearance? Surely they are more than good enough to play at this level. |

Probably not as much cover as we think because Finlay Armstrong is only on loan until the Wealdstone game. |
