If you read this,
Know that 90%+ of the fans are supportive of you and the team.
Understand that every club has supporters who are never happy and criticise, ignore them you can't please everyone.
Remember that you have to be careful with your comments to the media, anyone would think the supporters at the Colchester game were baying for your blood.
Think - Abuse aimed at ex players such as joe Thompson was far more extreme than anything said this season.
Take it positively that some fans look at 12th in the division as disappointing, it shows how far you and the management team have taken Rochdale FC.
Work as a club to encourage supporters through the gates, we know it's a tough one but there are
ways and means which can help further.
Know on here that there are a couple of real wind up merchants who spout rubbish just to get reactions.
Dale fans don't want us to be anything like bury, we like our club run sensibly and with financial sense.
Realise the only person who can damage your reputation here is you.
Merry Christmas, and I for one will be cheering the team on v Crewe [Post edited 23 Dec 2015 10:28]

I think Hilly needs to accept that fans are not idiots and more than capable of identifying a poor performance from a bad one. Once he does that he will feel a whole lot better. Criticising a players performance or not being happy with a team display is a perfectly normal thing to do and is the very essence of going watching the game. The following game those complaints invariably turn into praise because of the nature of the game, each one is different.
Some choose to do their criticising at the game which is never a good thing, it effects the confidence of the players and fosters a bad atmosphere, the ones who do that are a small minority. I know of two who sit in the TDS stand, we could play like Barcelona they would still come out with some negativity. Some of these people need help and have somehow found themselves inside Spotland every week, they can't help it.
Then we come to this forum, what a fantastic place to get things off your chest, release your frustrations or misguided opinions, fall out with fellow supporters and vent your feelings towards the manager/ players/ Chairman/ Weather Forecasters or Fixture Board malfunctions. Even the girls in the office can have a bit, nobodies immune. Andy Thackerry seemed a nice enough chap but he still gets it in the neck because the coin flipped the wrong way and the wind subsided to a gentle breeze. The forum belongs to the fans, like the boardroom belongs to the Chairman and Directors. Those who are easily offended or perhaps not a paying Football Supporter should keep out and mind there own business, lest it causes offence.
Rather than vent your frustration at the game, wait until after and do it on the forum instead. By doing that the manager and players can have no complaints. Is that a sensible suggestion or am I missing something? |
"Those who are easily offended or perhaps not a paying Football Supporter should keep out and mind there own business, lest it causes offence."
You once quit this forum over a debate about BBM.
You talk a very good game TS. However, very much like Hilly, the problem arises when someone has the temerity to disagree with you. Some of your responses to posters on here who have disagreed with you, I'm thinking of Briels for example, have bordered on hysterical paranoia.
Forgive me if I find your lectures as to the merits of Keith Hill's character a little contradictory but you have been one of the most intolerant posters on here in the past. |  |

Notwithstanding how any supporter responds, there's little doubt that what has gone on in the last few days has been completely unnecessary and avoidable.
Have yet to see an argument to the contrary. |  |

May very well be the case. It's just the 'do what I say don't do what I do' holier than thou approach that amuses and bemuses.
Hilly should accept the views of others. TS doesn't but there you go. [Post edited 24 Dec 2015 8:20]

Yep, we all live in one big house and our whole raison d'être is to disagree with you. I'm not quite sure who "my mates" are supposed to be but if it makes you feel more justified then fine........I'm freinds with Bury, Pol Pot, Stalin, Keith Hill and whoever else you dislike.
Merry Christmas TS xx [Post edited 24 Dec 2015 15:06]

I feel certain people are betraying Keith and betraying the club, its like last supper and Judas.
They want to get a grip of what they are dreaming about, smell the roses and get a grip on reality. I promise you one thing if they succeed in forcing Hilly out of spotland,god help us all, be careful what you wish for because you lose the heartbeat of our club and it will die. Nobody else has had or ever will have the drive and balls to keep driving us forward, we are consistently in a great place for our little club. These are the glory days believe it and enjoy it, because it wont last for ever.
Remember Steve Eyre and John Coleman, did we relate to those guys, did they show us any kind of constant forward growth, any youth development and saleable assets....NO Nothing, nothing but pain.
I am pretty sure that every time a job becomes available in the Championship and L1 the chairman and board of those clubs think "Keith Hill" I bet he could do a good job at our club, well one day KH might just think you know what I might just FO and get out of Rochdale.
I trust Keith and love the way he manages our club, he says what he feels and can at times be grumpy and talks some crap but in all honesty he is Hilly The King and don't forget it !! |
In In In spot on mate | |
