Rochdale Post Match Thoughts

[rolymiller]

Yep poor today a game too far methinks. Think we dont tend to play well after a break in fixtures. Passing was poor again today and Keith hill obviously did his homework on us. Our midfield was very weak and never got going. But hey it was going to come to an end sooner or later and better against a lower team than a promotion rival. We start on our next run to see the season out next week.

Best team won today.
Terrible ref absolutely shocking.
Thought he should have took smith off invisible today.
Onto next game and we go again.

[Casper64Frank]

Got what we deserved.
Experience of Keith Hill v the novice Paul Warne.
Credit where credits due, well done Dale.
No7 that Brin asked about is 20yrs old Stephen Humphrys, they have him on loan from Fulham.
My man of the match for us....Marek Rodak
Two superb saves to actually keep us in the game.

[mellowmiller]

Agree with the assessments above.
I would just add that Rodak was man of the match for me. If it hadn't been for him Rochdale would have won more comfortably. No idea why the sponsors gave it to Smith.

We can have no complaints. We were outfought, out-thought and outplayed. Hill got the tactics spot on. We had no plan B and looked leaden footed from the start. Rochdale were first to the ball at all the fifty fifties and our cause was not helped by defenders wanting an age to get shut of the ball. Very bad day at the office for us and 4 or 5 for Rochdale would not have been a travesty.

You did call it correctly as well...

No complaints whatsoever,they were stronger all over the pitch,and yes there right winger is some player all right.

[Grist_To_The_Mill]

We were second best.
Rochdale deserved their win
Couldn’t see anything wrong with our disallowed goal
Poison from Salisbury twice in a week.
Smith laughingly awarded MoM, bearing in mind Rodak kept us in the game.

Could not believe it myself when Smith was announced as man of the match,he was one of the worst players on the pitch,you can see why he as had so many clubs,he was a passenger today,but so were the majority of his teammates.

[Brin]

Nobody covered themselves in glory today. Couldn't even choose a MOTM today.
