Boyce and Horton absolutely awful!

Rene is Dec’s dad, otherwise it is a bit of an unhealthy obsession.

Absolute shit show today. We just cannot defend at the moment, not helped by Mahady handing them the first goal (again). Powder puff in midfield, Ewing couldn’t get near anyone (what’s happened to him since the turn of the year!?).
1 win and 15 goals conceded in the last 6 games (with the 1 win being a total smash and grab against Southend). New signings have so far contributed the combined sum of zero. The wheels have well and truly come off, something ain’t right in camp Scunny.

Regarding the penalty, just had a look on the FA website at the rules…any “illegal feinting” results in an indirect free kick being awarded and a caution (yellow card) being shown to the kicker.
The ref got it spot on, Dieseruvwe clearly completed his run up and then stopped, i.e feinted. Don’t think he touched the ball and he didn’t need to for the refs outcome to be correct.

If we can go back to the performance shown at Boreham Wood away then we’ve got every chance of getting a result. Play anything like we have since that night and Rochdale’s goal difference will probably increase significantly.

6 in the league (from 15 starts), 10 if you include the cups (including the Mickey Mouse NL Cup).

Not sure if we can say if Smith is a bad signing or not yet but what have Hurst, Smith or Dausch done that Dec Howe wouldn’t have done? Absolutely nothing.

I’ve always liked Brogan, works hard, not shy of a tackle and can clearly pop up with a goal out of nothing. He’s never really been given a run of games to settle into the side.
For all of Ewing’s strong points, 1 goal from open play this season (on the opening day) is pretty poor for a more advanced midfielder.
Don’t understand why Bellahoun doesn’t get more of a run out at full back. Denton is a real concern for me. His passing is awful and his defending leaves a lot to be desired. He seems to switch off quite a lot in important situations. I would feel confident meeting Carlisle in the playoffs if it came to that.
Think Belahouan is injured. But regarding Denton’s passing, it was his peach of a cross field pass that setup our only goal Vs Southend.

The funniest lines were around Horton being “vertically disadvantaged” and the offside law should be changed so that if you’re in an offside position when the ball is played but then receive it in an offside position, you should be deemed onside as it’s “just clever play”.
Real amateur hour stuff. DAZN should give the option for either commentary, Ollie Turner and Torps do a stellar job.

The double standards being applied to Mahardy mistakes are as evident as the disgraceful bullying of Campbell.As for Beck there was a lot of online noise but I remember him scoring and the majority being genuinely pleased for him personally
If you’re going to keep bringing up Mahady with comparisons to Campbell, at least get his name right.
There’s a reason Mahady has been signed for the rest of the season and Campbell sent out on loan to a club THREE divisions below us.

Their squad size is irrelevant, he went back to Coventry because he clearly wasn’t deemed good enough to get in FG’s team (managed to make 11 appearances off the bench so couldn’t have been that seriously injured).
He worked hard today in his brief cameo but that’s no different to what Dec would have done. Still find it a very strange decision unless Dec forced the move himself.

Didn’t see that one coming! Will have to wait and see who else comes in as a replacement but until then I’m not sure it’s the wisest of ideas. I’ve been impressed with Howe, he’s always a goal threat and never stops working for the team.

Connor Smith it is. Happy with that!
