    if attendances are falling because of one man who happens to be the manager i would have thought the board members would be worried and more concerned about getting fans back and then start winning games again, they will just be shooting themselves in the foot

    The Hill comments thing is incredibly minor. It's to do with apathy and not listening to supporters.

    We've always been poorly supported - nothing to do with Hill. More to do with 40 years of mostly struggling in division 4 and a town full of City and Utd fans .

    I wonder how many they'd take to Wembley if they got to the play off final though?

    We took 16-17k when we played Stockport in 2008. That was down to it being the first time ever though, I'd doubt we'd take many more than 10k in the future.

    No, I wouldn't. A, that would mean missing teh chnace to see teh Blunts blow at Wembley again and also it would mean Keith Gobshite Hill beating us and getting in the playoffs

    I like local games so want MK Dons and Swindon to be promoted and Millwall to stay up. So then we keep around yourself, Blunts, Chesterfield and Preston. But to that we hopefully add Blackpool, Rotherham, Wigan and Bury.

    No we wouldn't, because Sheff Utd always f*ck it up in the Play Offs which is hilarious whereas you're Rochdale, insignificant, but for that w*nker of a manager who I have nothing but ill feeling and the desire of failure for.

    Could the low crowds also be to do with a decent percentage of the population being Asian ?

    Not sure, I've seen Asian families at Spotland so they do come, the club don't help themselves by doing ZERO publicity around the town centre. Hopefully this will change now we've employed a new marketing manager.

    Good point.

    I do feel that's a massive reason why a huge city like Bradford don't get the crowds much smaller towns get

    About a quarter of Bradfords population are Asian I think and you barely see a handful at their games unless they're playing Chelsea or someone in a Cup match.

    Just not into football

    ... and maybe not keen on overt racism ?

    ' a town full of ******' being sung at them ?
