I see that they COULD be at home to Spurs in the FA Cup. Their replay against Millwall is next Tuesday so, hopefully, none of them will want to get injured on Saturday  Smiley
    The ideal scenario for us is that they take it easy on Saturday and then get knocked out by Millwall, thus depriving them of extra cash  Cool

I think Keith Hill should rest his key players in readiness for the big cup match against Millwall and a chance to take on Spurs. They need the cash to sort out the swamp of a pitch they play on.

Their game at home to Wigan Athletic tomorrow night has been postponed - no guesses why!

Slight fixture pile up on the horizon there for Dale!

I guess they would rather not play the league leaders straight after a tough cup game. They could have had the decency to pretend they wanted to play the game rather than call it off two days in advance.

Must be bad if it's being postponed this early.

There was a photo of the Rochdale pitch on Twitter, looked pretty waterlogged!

No suggestions if they watered it themselves.

I saw that - bizarre! Talk about contrary to the integrity of the competition - they even suggested a neutral venue!

If you are building an ideal scenario: surely it is for us to win by at least 30 goals.

They will be amazed at our pitch. Looking better than many big name clubs above us. Cardiff's pitch looked a mess on TV the other day.

Havant & Waterlooville wanted to switch their Tue night home game with Oxford City a couple of weeks back, offering to play at Oxford City (who now have 3G pitch) for the same reason.
Also refused by the powers that be!

Don't want to burst any bubbles on here, but Rochdale will be no walk over and may be a hard nut to crack! Their display at Millwall suggests that alone, which according to match reports they should have won. To me the important thing is not to lose or at the very least not to concede a goal. What is certain they will not want to lose here. Incidentally the Sky Prediction League 1 table still had us in the relegation zone ! With Rochdale above us (even tho' we were several points ahead of them). What a strange formula they use.

20 wins, 20 losses and 22 draws against Rochdale down the years. Probably end up being another draw.

I wonder if we will play Bunney at left back. Rochdale more than anyone will know all about him and how to exploit his weaknesses.

Let them worry about his strengths, mainly his ability to find JJ with pin point crosses. Should be a good passing surface with rain forecast in the morning but dry for kick off. Quite cold though.

It's hard enough predicting our results yet alone forecasting the weather in 5 days' time.
