Dale fans...

Do either of you know the parent of the little girl who wet on the pitch with stan the monkey? got a couple of good pics that i didnt put on the web with the rest

Re: Tonight
 

lol! Where did you see me? I'm confused how you know me!!!

Re: Tonight
 

No kipax i don't sorry. Well i don't know you sazzy i just know what you look like somehow if this makes any sense

Re: Tonight
 

To play devils advocate a little, I noticed that before the corner that led to our second goal Dale`s keeper was being jostled and had his toes danced upon once or twice. It`s not big and it`s not clever and considering the reputation we picked up last season it`s not acceptable. Lets beat teams on skill and not some Euro 2004 fancy dan antics, I mean we are good enough. :engsmil:

Re: Tonight
 

Dalefan, according to all the reports I have seen, the own goal Hacker scored would not have counted, because the assistant referee had already flagged Dale players offside, so the goal could not have counted. Hope this clears up the misunderstanding.

Re: Tonight
 

Surely if the ref sees that the rochdale player did not get the ball then he was not interfering? The ref could have overruled his liner

Re: Tonight
 

Well he is interfering if Hacker was cutting out the cross before it got to the 'Dale player, this is how he can be flagged offside and therefore the goal not counted. Simple really...

Re: Tonight
 

Fellas, don't get too excited about beating 'Dale.

We beat Wolves 5-1 last season and had a crap campaign. Pre-season results count for nothing, and though it's always nice to win....get it in perspective.

Looking forward to our first meet at The Pie on the Tuesday.

Who do you guys think will win league? ( besides either you or us of course)

Majority seem to think that Carlisle will have too much.................but funnier things have happened.

Re: Tonight
 

Why not.. theres little else... we have been starved of football for months.. we get to play and win... surely we can be happy :)


I dont think anyone is thinking we beat a rochdale slung together side so we must be fantastic... half our first choice players wernt even playing and I know some of the rochdale ones where trialists.

?



I am glad you said beside either of us cus I doubt either of us will... It will be a fantastic achievement if we make the playoffs.. such a big upheavel the last few weeks.... the team that runs out for our first game will hardly know each other... geeze we dont even own a goalie yet ... surely it will take time to gell the team together....



Lots of teams drop down and dnt set the place on fire... But carlisle are a little different in that they wheer sort of on the up as they came down..as daft as that sounds...

Carlisle are bound to be up there.. looking at top two i would say.. as for us I would be more than happy if we sneak into the playoffs :)

Re: Tonight
 

isnt the rule from when the ball is played............

Re: Tonight
 

There have been plenty of goals scored were despite there being players in offside positions the goal has been allowed because they were not interfering.


Anyway it doesn't matter!

Re: Tonight
 

it was only a friendly......

the new interpretation of the offside rule is crap anyway, some referees look as though they dont understand it
