    I think he is more than good at what he does

    I don't care if he talks tosh. At least it was entertaining tosh.

    I don't believe that he damaged our club

    But i am in the minority

    You know when you see those polls on TV? And there are a few that vote the other way... And you think........who the hell thinks that?

    Anyway....Keith operates on our footballing level at the moment.and if Rochdale stuff us, he is entitled to stick two fingers up

    Of course he damaged our club. Just look at all the dross he brought in that he's since signed at a lower level

    Summat doesn't add up...

    Fair play to Done for getting goals. Appreciate when someone can turn it around.

    **** knows how though cause he was ***** here.

    He took over a team that was looking up and looked like building a side.
    He then filled the side with cack with the odd decent player then set about pulling down the club it's history and it's achievements

    He was abart as entertaining as Miranda. And half as funny.

    Really?

    We had about 8 contracted first teamers, and the likes of Butterfield, Clark, Rose, RNL etc breaking in.

    Not saying Keith added to that squad (that soon lost Shackell) amazingly well or owt, it was very hit and miss his recruiting, few saleable assets added to be fair, but he did build us the most competitive side we've had since Bassett's first season. Unfortunately, rug was pulled in January and bad luck with injuries etc. Criticise him after that, no problem.

    As for Done, he was quality for much of his first season here. Dreadful the next.

    Glad he's doing well now though. Seemed a good lad.

    I don't get this Done was quality. When?

    Another gutless Pep signing

    Scored five goals, created a few too. For a lad making the step up in divisions I thought he looked quality first season. Other opinions are out there, like.

    If he'd been allowed to keep what he'd assembled then he'd have done ok.

    His PR skills were non existent. But history and achievements? FFS we've been in the top league once. For a year. Oh and we won the FA Cup 100 years ago.

    Meanwhile, Danny is far more entertaining incisive and funny. He's a scream at every press conference. Not that he needs to be nor is that included in the job description.

    So we should stick to the pitch and hope for the best

    Allowed to keep? He had ONE player sold. Another got injured, it happens, good managers deal with it.

    Another he lost was Drinkwater who wasn't his player. Again good managers deal with it. All he he did was moan.

    Danny is much smarter than Hill. His wit is there.

    Also personally I think BFC has more about it than Hill liked to admit. Strange that fans of BFC agreed with him like...

    Aren't folks bored of all this malarkey? I found Hill's attempts to be a 'character' grating and irritating at the time but we move on. Rochdale are a good local club with good fans I wish them well. Some managers are just a poor fit for some clubs. Hill was that for us. Some managers (Alan Buckley springs to mind) can only manage at one club for whatever reason maybe that's Keith's fate.

    Fair play to the lad coming on after every game they win. Make sure you keep coming on for the losses and after Christmas when you've ran out of steam

    No doubt Hill will be reminding you all that bottom four is the best you can achieve so best not get too carried away.
