Come on Rochdale, kick arse.
D'Mani Bughail-Mellor, now that's what I call a name.

Rochdale fans forum this evening, should be interesting.
It certainly did not get broadcast 'live' on either the internet or local radio. Maybe it did not even get recorded
by any media organisation and not by the club. Only those there have heard any of it? Presumably the local
press will have had a presence there?
We have Nigel Clibbens to thank for our fora going going out 'live' on the internet and remaining there for
subsequent viewing. Furthermore it is possible to download our fora to our individual computers just in case
we think that they will disappear off the internet at some stage. When it was managed and recorded by BBCRC
it went out 'live' on the night but was curtailed (at least the recording of it) to fit the BBCRC schedule. Thus we
heard it 'live' but not all of it and only once. We had no access to it after that.
Since the Clibbens influence has been brought to the matter we can watch it 'live' on the internet and subsequently
watch it at our individual convenience. I have downloaded the 3 2021 fora and edited them together to form 1 video.
Similarly I have downloaded the 2 2022 fora and edited them to form 1 video. For both years I have deleted the leading,
trailing and interval silences but all of each of the fora for both years remain from the beginning to the end of each.

Hi Stefan,
The last time it was broadcast live it was comedy gold & our ex-CEO started crying
The decision was taken by the club last year not to live stream because of the hostile takeover situation and although sorted now, there must be a valid reason why this is continuing.
There is a thread developing on our forum round what was said & asked if your interested. Nothing jaw dropping like the debacle of Brian Barry Murphy's secret contract extension from what I have seen.
It is mostly about the doom & gloom of financial issues, team performance/strategy & the recent transfer window issues.
Is there a video or audio recording of it and if so is it available to access by the general public?
It seems to be that Rochdale have done the absolute minimum to comply with the EFL rule that there must be 2 open fora per year with at least one owner, director or executive on the panel. Those of us who love Rochdale have been let down by it not going out 'live' on local radio / internet and it seemingly not being either video or audio recorded to give the option of there subsequently being the opportunity to experience it.

Twitter’s quiet but says just the same.
Going in person is not convenient for everyone. What about Rochdale supporters worldwide? When the Carlisle United forum is going out 'live' on the internet it accepts questions posted from supporters immediately from that internet page. Maximum access live and worldwide is the proper standard. Rochdale have done the bare minimum to comply with the EFL regulations. It seems that the 'powers that be' at the club did not want to be transparent about all things Rochdale, hoping that hardly any of those present would remember much of it.
