Blind side johnny Posted February 12, 2024 Posted February 12, 2024 As we are now out of the 1895 and Challenge Cups we don't have another game scheduled until March 17th. Is this just a chance for Dale to refine the team structures or might we be better trying to arrange a friendly? I'm sure that there will be plenty of other clubs in the same position who would be interested in a hit out. Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change.

Only genuine friendlies count, and only one of them at that. Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change.
Wakefield Ram Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 Guessing this is to give fringe players on both sides a run out? 1
Crown Flatter Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 Pity we are not allowed in. I’d have liked to watch it. 1 Legs, Dews, Legs.

For the last thirty years, they've been trying to find the perfect scenario for the lower tiers, but they just can't get it right. The chief exec is on a salary that touches a quarter of a million quid per year for running (more like crawling) the organisation. Oh well, I've got the game in Vegas to keep me occupied for at least another week. I wonder if the pitch will be a mud bath, played in a dilapidated stadium, with one kilowatt floodlights? Don't be daft, lad! 2
