Mendez-Laing causing all sorts of problems today. Best player by far

This time he runs at the box after a decent through ball, Ref says Stokes fouls him but with the first foul coming on the edge of the area

He sets up the free kick, slips as he takes it and it just goes wide despite ironic cheers from city fans thinking it has gone well wide. It hadn't.

Burge then sets up to take what looked to be a goal kick in the same position so suspect ML touched the ball with both feet after he slip so we got a free kick instead of goal kick

Not surprised he took thomas off. Reckon he touched the ball about 5 times whilst on. He stood and watched his man run with the ball for the second. Bigi had to cover and was left out of position.

 

[devonrich]

Where's Willis, Reid, and Bigi today?

Oh yeah, fucking shit again now that Wembley's over.

I wouldn't mind offloading all of them to be honest.

Can't wait till next season. Tingling all over to have a season of this shite

 

[skybluepm2]

It was surreal! Even by his standards, he looked to be in the perfect position to stop it and there was nothing behind it!

Yet some people are clambering for Robins to offer him a new deal after huge strides under the new manager. He's shit and will always be shit.

Apparently MR is missing from the dug out?

 

[sw88]

Chants of 'we want a shot' go round

We have a shot that goes well over but we'll take it!

Now we sing 'we've had a shot'

He's dug his way out of the ground.

Looks like he's there to me

CWR saying they can't see him. I trust you more though!

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Time to remind you all that we have a total of 1 point this season from games where we conceded the first goal of the game....anyone feel like guessing which game that was?

Northampton at home

Just popped his head out of Joe Bunny's burrow apparently.

 

[sw88]

Low long range effort at Burge who fumbles but the ball goes wide

 

[shy_tall_knight]

tudgay what has Robins seen that convinces him that he has anything positive to contribute, 3 years of dross

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

CWR saying they can't see him. I trust you more though!

He's only 'ickle, and probably hiding inside his tracksuit now that he's been through another 'away day' performance. Fair play to all you regular away day attendees (clap, clap)

 

[sw88]

Hopefully they see him now. Pretty sure he's stood in the area alongside his no.2

 

[skybluepm2]

We do have to rely on Linnell and Squeakin for information. The latter usually doesn't even get the opposition correct, so I'm not surprised they are unable to locate an individual.

 

[sw88]

DKE on for Willis

 

[eastwoodsdustman]

Hes been stood in his technical area all game. Cwr are goons

 

[skybluepm2]

Low long range effort at Burge who fumbles but the ball goes wide

If he's not careful, Andy Turner may end up only giving him a 7 after this performance!

 

[hill83]

Zero shots on target after 75 minutes

 

[sw88]

Another Rochdale cross headed over

 

[sw88]

Stevenson down and receiving treatment from both medical teams

Not even sure what happened.......

Stretcher being called for

 

[sw88]

5 added on but will be more added on as Stevenson still getting treated

Looks like a neck brace job

 

[sw88]

Not even sure players thought it was anything. They were setting up for a free kick to us and only our physio initially treating him

SW or Eakin. Now which one do you trust in matters relating to ccfc and football? Like ccfc92 my faith is in SW

Has he been stretchered off now or still receiving treatment?

If we have a shot on goal can we organise a street party

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Said DKE piled into the back of him (the ref then gave us free kick!) But that was CWR - await SW88's verdict....!

 

[trevelfarandwide]

Aye, back to default now, no need to maintain a momentum or anything...fucking pansies.

Saying that, this has been an amusing match thread, viva la acerbic wittage.

Is the game fucking over yet...

 

[lifeskyblue]

Safe journey home to the mad fools/exceptional fans (take your pick) that were at Rochdale today

Have to echo what lifeskyblue says above. Have a great journey home guys. It's nice to know there are some die-hard fans here that will still travel to watch the city!

 

[sw88]

Christ that was dull!

After the first 15 or so minutes we just went to sleep; fans and players!
