Thought this worthy of its own thread.
Absolutely superb. Slight wobble with the ticketing issue initially.
But during and after the match. Spot on.
The Linesman at our fans end owes them several beers.


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

The bald steward with the sunglasses did a superb job.

I couldn't see I was the other end but looked like something was rumbling. Nothing materialised so can only assume whats been said holds true. What happened?

Max and Paddy! I was a bit apprehensive walking up to the bar thinking there was a possibility I might get knocked back wearing colours but they were great and said I looked cool in my shades (not sure if they thought I was with the disabled supporters club who’d walked in a few seconds before us).

They were sound to be fair, one of ours was walking up with an ale from the car and they just let him put it in the bin and in we went.

They’re like the most completely inoffensive club on the planet.

Stewards and old bill were decent and was great to see them not excrement their pants under the stand and keep selling drinks etc, which doesn’t always happen…

Amazing what happens when people treat others with respect isn't it?

Compare what you lot who went today with this piece of stewarding at Solihull.

Please do let the FSA know ([tweet]@FairCop[/tweet], [url]thefsa.org.uk[/url]).
Important to recognise and acknowledge good practice, not just complain about the bad.

Agree with everything said on here. Really enjoyed the Sports Club and the staff were brilliant. Prices were very good as well.

Regardless of result, Rochdale has always been a decent place to go and is definitely one of those away games you could take your kids to knowing it’ll be decent.

Positive stewarding and policing needs recognition as much as the dreadful approaches we witness. Anyone that’s seen the Solihull incident at the weekend will know what I mean.
