    What would he do if he managed to get Rochdale promoted? He didn't have the stomach for the Championship five years ago. His massive head would explode if he saw some of the money swilling about in the Championship today and the differences between the haves and the have nots. What could he possibly do with a club getting sub 3,000 gates. Probably best to forfeit promotion should it happen.

    He'd probably blame the fans when it all went wrong.

    Hats off to him. They had a **** start, he and the directors were verbally insulting their fans, their fans were asking if it was time he went, they were a mess. And what is it, 8 wins or summat daft, on the spin?

    Man's a ******* genius. And they all love him again.

    I'd love to see them promoted.

    They're welcome to him. I hope he never sets foot in Oakwell again. I still have nightmares about 2012

    Fair play to your lads.

    I don't get the negativity towards your team purely because Keith Hill is in charge. He's a prat but I've absolutely no beef with your club.

    Would love for you to beat dem Blades in a play-off final. Even if it meant seeing Keith Happy.

    I'd rather they get promoted than the blades or Bolton. Who cares how many they get Burton are doing okay and they are only getting around 5k in the championship always nice to see the small clubs over achieve. Flicker ain't doing too bad at bury either.

    He's not. He's collecting players and illustrating that he knows no other way of managing. Easily the most ill-disciplined team I've see in many a year.

    There were a small minority who questioned Hill's suitability, most were concerned at his recruitment over the summer, even then we've seen it so often before that he pulls rabbits out of hats and turns it round. We're back to playing strikers at full back again, kids in midfield and Calvin Andrew scoring goals. It's quite remarkable.

    Genuinely would love Rochdale to get promotion despite the dicksplashes involvement. Genuine football club who!s fans deserve some success.

    I agree. I have no issue whatsoever with either Rochdale FC or the fans. I just don't have much time for Hill as a manager.

    I haven't see any negativity towards Rochdale FC, its fans or players. Actually I tell a lie. There was a lot of negativity from towards one of their layers when Tom Kennedy played for them.

    I have. Some of it, particularly when we were in the same division was quite embarrassing.

    There was lots of negativity towards Hill/Kennedy et al but not Rochdale as far as I can remember

    Essentially, I want whoever Hill manages to get smashed to bits every game. I take great pleasure in it.

    Doesn't matter whether that's Rochdale - who are as much rivals to Barnsley as Truro City, Ross County or Wellington Phoenix - or anyone else.

    Not that it will happen, but if he ever came back to us, I honestly think I'd stop going. The tip-tap rubbish followed by blaming me (and everyone else who stumps up their money) would sicken me, again.

    Good luck to him.
    I daresay he's an honest, straight up and down bloke who tells it like it is.
    I would also daresay that if some of the keyboard warriors on here, calling him lovely person and w**ker, would shy away from doing so face to face.

    Good club, Rochdale, wish them well. I think Keith Hill has a great record there with the budget he works with. Just glad I don't have to listen to his utter rubbish and scapegoating anymore.
