A few town fans called the back four of mcdermott, young or crane and hockless and the left back then the fab 4 even though none of them was fab

Clint marchelle
Pinult


Clint Marcelle no one rated, he was a pointless signing. If I remember correctly, Slade had said that either Marcelle, Mansaram or that trialist Abdul would be offered a deal, but he gave Clint and Flash one. He was like 36 when we signed him and had been playing in Non League for years. Pinault was over rated yes!

Also

John Thorrington (was awesome at Huddersfield, came here and did nothing)
Iffy Onuora
Isaiah Rankin
Iain Anderson

We'd be in the top flight by now if he'd signed.

McCartney, Lennon, Harrison and Hockless. What a band.

I really thought Damien Spencer would do the business for us, but he was probably the biggest dissapointment going. Him and Joe Widdowson (who everyone at Rochdale thinks is good), but i still think was utter excrement for us.

Mike Newell was the biggest dissapointment I've ever seen at town.

Hockless was a winger, he never played in defence.

If I remember rightly the defence for most of the time when Hockless played was Crowe/McDermott, Crane, Ford/Edwards and Barnard.

Jean-louis Akpa Akpro. Look like he should have been good, Had a similar look to Drogba tall strong looking African footballer with some pace on him. I thought he would be good after seeing him in a reserves game. Everyone else was convinced for a long time him being good was just down to him needing more games.

Several games later he still managed most games with zero shots on target and his pace was used to run into the corner and do sodomist all with the ball. He had his moments i guess like 1 in 20 matches but for the most part he was crap.

Also Rob Atkinson i thought was rubbish even though people thought he was ace.

Danny North. Utter crap but praised for the few good games he had simply because he was a local lad and everything local is the best thing ever to some fans.

i disagree, i liked akpa akpro, from a opposition point of view he was a nightmare, really got him self stuck in there and would love him back here !
