FiNeRaIn Cambridge, good day that. Started off chanting abuse at madejski then we made our way over to the cambridge fans, plenty of us trying to get into their stand and have an off with them but they bottled it.

The home game? When about a dozen of you tried a pitch invasion after we'd snatched a draw? What a bunch of mugs you looked that day.

A dozen? Christ, you need your memory checking, at least a few hundred. It made the TV.

Nah. It was the most pathetic pitch invasion I've ever seen. Gave the fans a bit of a laugh at the stupidity of trying to organise such a pitch invasion. They really need to be spontaneous and triggered by some real event such as a genuinely shambolic performance (think back to 1-3 v Notts County under Branfoot or 0-3 v Port Vale under Bullivant), or you run the risk of making youself look stupid.

It made the TV? Yeah, I bet ITN cleared the decks for that massive story.

It wasn't anywhere near as good as Sheff Wednesdays, agreed.

floyd__streete I attended the game at Underhill yesterday. A boring load of old crap to be honest, Rochdale don't have a prayer of staying up next season on that evidence. If I had to watch League 2 football every week I'd top myself. £15 for the privelege too :roll:


Was at the game too and can only echo your comments. Albert Adomah looked pretty useful, but apart from him everyone else was pretty rubbish.

Ditto. when people have a moan on our bad days and complain about players being of being league two standard, it generally goes to show that they haven't seen a lot of League Two football.

To be fair to Rochdale, they clearly didn't give a toss, and judging them on that display would be like judging us on ours at Watford.


£15 didn't bother me as a Cardiff supporting mate decided to come as well so saved myself train fare and was back in Reading at six o'clock! Was a bit of an anti climax with Grimsby going two down early on so the tension never really came. Barnet did deserve the three points, as said 'dale were awful and i think they only had one decent effort, Gary Breen at the back for Barnet showed all his experience. Have to say i've never seen a team doing a final warm up after shaking the hands of the opposition.



Can't beat a bit of 'twist and shout' 8)
