Rochdale fan here, coming in peace. First of all, good luck tonight, facing you will be the biggest fixture ever for our club, from a financial pov. Secondly, im going to apologise for the state of our pitch, we got mugged off during the summer from the company that laid the pitch, but it should be better by the time we potentially play you, weve hired out premier league equiptment for the last round which contarary to the pictures actually helped,as far as i believe we will continue to rent it.
Our league position doesnt realy give us credit, in a league were we have probably one of the lowest budgets, we have lost to many games by the odd goal or drawn when we were better value for a result. Recently lady luck is swinging back our way. All Rochdale fans respect the way your club has gone about things against the money bags that the big 3 have.
Our team is made up from our academy players and casts offs that have been forged together weve moved tp 3-4-2-1 recently with attacking wing backs. We like to play football, we wont go out to injure your players. We have to much self respect for that. I do hope you avoid playing kane just for tthe facts its world cup year and knowing england its our luck hell get injured ha.
It could be our first time facing you. Weve been having a debate on our site to how many of your fans will turn up. We have 2k seated away stand--will you fill it? What team can we expect to face? Seeming its jammed in to some very important fixtures for you. Much love and good luck for the rest of the season.

Would you guys be opposed to switching the game to Wembley if you were to receive a large chunk of the gate revenue? I understand the thrill of seeing these players close up on your home ground and that's not to be underrated. I do however wonder if your players would love a competitive game at Wembley? As a spurs fan I would happily see any profits going your way once costs are covered. Sorry if this comes across in the wrong way, the pitch looks bad and i'm worried for our players as we have an intense run in.

I can see us getting a 40k+ for this game (if we were to get through)

FWIW I think Daniel Levy is a fair bloke, they donated valuable turnstiles to lower league clubs and have made decent gestures in the past. He's a man of honour and knows how to make a difference. It's part of our club values and something every fan and player likes to be a part of. If we get through – you'll do ok :levywhoa:

It's a ridiculous rule. Screwing us over.

I didn't have a problem with it until it adversely affected Spurs, but now I think it's an awful disgrace and only there as a conspiracy against us.

Might tweet the Met about this.

Absolutely a conspiracy. all driven by lollerpoo, think they're demanding newport have a 2 penalty head start

Thanks mate, nice post.

I thought we were the reincarnation of Revie's Leeds but glad to see we're not that hated. ;-)
