If we can accept a Codhead how about keeper Harvey Cartwright. Contract at Targers ends this month, been there 6 years and had several loans principally Cods & Hartlepool where he impressed. 23y.o and 6’4″
I wouldn’t bother suggesting keepers on here. I suggested Jake Eastwood at the start of the season…deemed not good enough by almost every poster on this site. Oh wait, he’s just won promotion from Cambridge in League 2 as their no.1 keeper.

Jack Nolan out of contract in June. Would be the perfect Roberts replacement and probably the best we could hope to get. He’ll probably be snapped up by a league club though, spent all his career in League 1/2 (over 100 appearances) before joining Morecambe this season.

Just saw that Tom Pugh played for Spalding in the final. Some still think he’s “one that got away”.

Butler has done well and isn’t going anywhere. Got us promoted last season and I think literally every fan would have accepted a season of mid-table mediocrity without the threat of relegation. We definitely exceeded my expectations this season, especially considering the reduced budget compared to last.
However, his stubbornness, the way he comes across in interviews and his attitude towards any fan that isn’t of the Positivity Dave ilk makes him pretty unlikeable.

Roberts contributed to over 30% of our goals this season so will be a massive loss if he goes (which he probably will and deserves a crack at league football).
Pat Jones needs to step up here in Roberts’ likely absence. Lots of effort but 1 goal and 1 assist in his 12 appearances so far isn’t exactly great.
Ewing no great loss, would prefer to see Alfie be the regular starter as the more forward midfielder in a 3. Always pops up with important goals and has scored more than Ewing/Westbrooke/Rowley combined.
Unsure on Jones in goal…he’s done ok but nothing spectacular, could be the answer with a full pre-season under his belt and with injuries hopefully behind him.
Right back hopefully sorted with Rose returning, but can he stay fit!?

A game of this magnitude and on a bank holiday Sunday was always going to be very in demand. It really should have been simple, give season tickets holders a day to purchase their tickets…1 season ticket = the ability to purchase 1 ticket. Once that priority window has elapsed, any left over go on general sale.
The club (yes, the club, not Rochdale, not Fanbase) have ballsed this up massively by allowing it to happen.

6 per season ticket…absolute joke.

Don’t get the “big and nasty” shout at all. We’re a team of vertically challenged players. Apart from Evans, Whitehall and JB everyone is below 6ft (not including the keeper).

Congrats Cal Roberts, well deserved! First time a player has won it twice on the bounce?

I’ll be there, hoping to catch a glimpse of the Raider and give him some!

If we kept our composure when in and around the oppositions penalty area we could have easily won by 3 or 4. Far too many wrong decisions made in the final third.

The whole situation is being blown out of proportion in my opinion. Someone gets told off by a steward for shouting abuse at Butler. One rightly gets thrown out for abusing a steward. Butler mouths ‘f off’ (not ‘out of the ground’ as BLT has claimed) and people are up in arms about it). Relatives follow the ejected out the ground. The ejected person is banned. Apart from the last bit, which seems harsh, no one would bat an eyelid had it happened around them in the Mortz. If it was such a big deal at the time to others, why didn’t anyone intervene? Anyhow, that’s my opinion. Sorry if it doesn’t chime with the pile on.
What “abuse” was shouted at Butler? Something along the lines of “bloody rubbish Butler” or a general airing of frustration is not abuse.
Bhuna states that Butler mouthed F off and gestured with his hands to get out of the ground. Sorry that was a bit tricky for you to comprehend.
