    Looks like the East move was caused by some midfield panic from tonight's opponents. Rochdale had midfielder Cody Johnson on a season long loan from Stockport, however they recalled him after the first weekend of the season and put him straight into their league cup starting 11 against Sheff Weds where he played an hour and also played the full 90 as the sitting midfielder against Walsall last weekend. Looks like he is told to site deep and move the ball left to right.

    It's seems as though he was brought back in to cover some injuries but also gaps in the window as Stockport couldn't bring in a CM they had their eye on, as well as some interest in Will Collar that might well have gone now. Stockport openly told Rochdale he could come back late in the window, but it looks like Rochdale didn't want to wait that long and moved for East who would be able to do a similar job.

    Good move for him, he should get regular football there, but a little sad to see him go, even if only for the energy he provided when he came on.

    Could be tricky for Johnson,if he has already played for two clubs ,and Rochdale don't want him back.

    He's only played for Stockport so far this season, he was recalled from Rochdale before making an appearance.

    He is 25 and hasn't even played 36 league games in his whole career. He's done nothing to warrant the love he is getting on social media alongside the hate aimed at Hughes. Bizarre. Same with Foulds... he was rubbish. Anything to throw shade at Hughes.

    I seriously think some of our fans just want us to fail.

    That's what a forum is all about opinions, everyone with one thinks their opinion is the right one.

    Thats a big price to pay in wages and a squad registration for just 'energy'.

    While I would have kept Foulds over Rides, they are both much of a muchness. Foulds wanted to go. Rides wanted to stay.

    Both capable back ups and nothing more.

    As far as I know Foulds would have loved to stayed but felt his position had been made untenable after what happened in January. A few differences of opinion on Foulds, personally, thought it was the wrong move to let him go but ultimately the manager has to do what he thinks is right for his team.
