I think Keith Hill has just had an accident.... in his trousers - the thought of returning to his spiritual home was just too much!

for the last one, two pre-seasons ago, we had the indignity of rochdale splitting their squad and playing two fixtures simultaneously, such was their respect for their former betters. i was actually glad they stayed up though. mildly glad, but still.

some representatives of cheadle, certainly. the mighty linotype are a fair alternative.

Good Lord, what has become of our club. The clubs we used to play in friendlies are now our league opponents and the teams we used to play in the league, now see us as the little sh*t local club they help out every Summer by sending a team to humour us!
All I'm hoping for from the Rochdale game is for Gannon and Hill to have a literal fist-fight and for me to be busy doing literally anything else that day.

maybe, but shaying away is definitely one of the leading contenders for pre-season bingo. i'm still celebrating kristian dennis' volley!

I remember going to Halifax the Summer before, I had a wedding reception to get to that night so I went from Stockport to Manchester on the 192, from Victoria to Halifax on the train and sat at the game all whilst wearing a tuxedo and desperately trying to keep it clean!
I would be excited for our 0-0 draw at Ashton United, which we’ll still get, just later in the year!

For that you’d be better parking near Ikea and walking!
