Be interested to know how many times , if any, Rochdale were re-elected to the league by the 'old pals act' voting ?

what an absolutely brilliant article about the town and the club, as equally affectionate as it is sarcastic. I laughed out loud and agreed with most of it too.

Wonderful stuff from Matt Boothman. Compulsive reading, wonderfully entertaining and informative and with some brilliant Youtube links :lol: . Wonder if he realises where Dale's manager came from? 8-)

And he's a realist: 'Division Four' 8-)

Darlo's is quite apt as well.

"In the 25000 seater Stadium with 21000 empty seats"

"Colin Todd has cobbled together a side from the scrap heap of Division Four"
