Rochdale were VERY decent against us on Saturday, but like I say every single 'crap team' will play well at some point over a season. Including their win versus us, thats 5 wins from 27 they've managed. And less than a point a game.
To suggest they will stay up based on their performances against us on Saturday and Millwall in the cup both being decent is rather silly! Its almost as you's lot think they've been good the rest of the time…which they clearly haven't been. Jesus, they even did their very best to lose against us after being 2-0 up, only a missed penalty in the last minute saw them get a draw! And that was after we hadn't scored for 6 games!
I *suspect they are a decent footballing side but with a very soft centre. Perhaps they lack leaders? They certainly lack their top assist player, who they sold to us!
They need to produce top half of the table form for 19 games to stay in this division. Id say that is highly unlikely.
Fair play to them for their win against us though…they played very well!
Drilling, can you not see the (rather silly) hypocrisy on your part?
No one (certainly not myself) is basing opinions about Dale on seeing one performance on Saturday - except you!
Games in hand ( a lot!) two performances against Millwall (now) a win at Donny, coupled yes, with a fine performance against us, suggests they are considerably better than some are giving them credit for.
You still (to make yourself feel better I guess) keep trying to consign their win on Saturday (ooh the downright audacity) against the mighty Cobblers...as a 'one off'!
