    The aim has to be for a top half finish. Might not be achieved but it should at least be tried for

    Go to the pub and have a beer, go out for a meal, spend some quality time with your other half, enjoy some free time if there is no other half, read a book, watch a film, basically do anything apart from obsessing over something as meaningless as an attendance at a football match. It's utterly bizzare.

    These are key factors but Edin doesn't get off that easily. You take the toxic element away and things start to improve. Similar to what's happened at Man United with Mourinho gone.

    I like to think that he's sat in a dark corner somewhere, crying.

    That's precisely the attitude I've been taking with WHU since 1959. Expect the worse and sometimes you're pleasantly surprised

    Well must admit I thought the system and lack of height up front would be a problem, But credit to DH he has these players on turbo charge and long may he be right and myself wrong if it produces results like today, Big well done to him and the players who are now obviously playing for him,

    Anybody who thinks that Rahic going was not a large part of our improvement is living in cloud cuckoo land. That was the catalyst.

    People saying it’s the only reason and not giving Hopkin any credit are equally bizzare

    Mate I am not feeling well, otherwise I would have been at the match, so a little more time on my hands.
    No pub, beer I could not face. May watch ‘killing Eve’ on catch up tonight.

    I agree. He's finally been allowed to manage.

    Rochdale have previous for the under reporting of match attendances. Ask BfB!

    Not a priority but I think we still need another forward.

    2 and 3 were Rahic's fault from pre season and 1 may well have been a symptom of number 3.

    Accrington got hammered 4 nil at home today. They'll be looking forward to pitching up at VP! :joy::joy::joy::joy:

    Agree. Lack of confidence target man necessary as can lump it and you need it to stick. Less so I’d pass it with purpose. Another striker needed though I agree

    Accrington make me nervous, They tend to do quite well against us.
