I didn’t realise how vocal Wilson is until I was at pitch level in the food queue. Not sure if he started like that with us but has Flint also given him the confidence to put his own stamp on things too?
There was an ace one on X last season who came out with all sorts of nonsense.
When they signed Galvin a few Dale fans told him that he wasn’t that great but he claimed that it was sour grapes and bizarrely claimed that playing in front of more fans would make him a better player. He seemed to think that Carlisle had beaten us to his signing because of how massive they are instead of the reality that we probably had no intention of trying to sign him in the first place.
95%* of them are up there with the buckets and Biffos for delusion.
Both sets of supporters think their club has some kind of importance in English football when in reality, just like us, nobody outside of the town (unless born or live here/there) gives two shites about them. We’re humble enough to accept that but when they have some bighead stroll into town and tell them they are bigger than they actually are then their limited intelligence allows them to believe it.
As you say, the Ogdens have the correct philosophy and don’t have to do cringeworthy things like join in training (Day at bury) or march down a street like the pied piper (Rothwell at Oldham) to earn respect. Again, it’s about humility and the aforementioned pair don’t possess it. It HAS to be about them and the gullible swallow it.
Oldham fans aren’t known for being very bright though. It was obvious their attention seeking chairman (who hasn't got his face plastered everywhere now results aren’t great) would tighten the purse strings at some point but they acted all Billy big bollocks anyway.
Lovely to see them spewing their bile on X. Horrible fanbase.
The majority of Carlisle fans are exactly the same (not Griff who comes on here - he’s a top bloke).
Last season we were “Rochdale, f****ing Rochdale” according to a number of supporters on their forum and they pretty much refer to every opponent in that division in the exact same way week after week. It’s hard to feel any sympathy with arrogance like that and until they change the culture at that club from top to bottom they’ll be there for a long while yet.
I don’t normally like seeing people made redundant as I’ve been there but I make an exception for him for the way he sneered at and patronised Dale fans for daring to suggest Radio Manchester had a Bolton Wanderers bias.
Some people on this thread seem genuinely gutted that we won and can’t bring themselves to give the team/manager any credit whatsoever. Just enjoy it and try being positive for once.
Lots of us said the same about Sweetmore and were shouted down and ridiculed by his fanboys. A “massive Rochdale fan” apparently. Anyone seen him at a game since he went?
There are others too who’ve appeared from nowhere and now think they’re the bees knees and can tell long time supporters what they should be saying or thinking. Doesn’t wash with me I’m afraid.
