The Cemetery. Bit of a walk from the ground but a decent pint.How many would we have taken and where is everyone having a pre-match pint?
Don't think I've ever been there when it's been pleasant and warm - usually it's baltic!
Last season it was great, stand full of tangerine was about half of the total attendance.How many would we have taken and where is everyone having a pre-match pint?

Had my first pint of Timothy Taylor's Landlord in there....apparently it was Lisa Stansfield's local too....The Cemetery. Bit of a walk from the ground but a decent pint.
We came over from Colne & had a break from the music festival which we were at & as you say it was a very warm day, only thing we didn't do was score. Lets hope that's not the case tonight. I rarely go to away matches but saw loads of people I'd not seen for all the dark years of the boycott. Still I enjoyed the spectacle of a sea of tangerine.Last season it was great, stand full of tangerine was about half of the total attendance.
Also had the lunatic linesman pool fan shadowing the linesman.
Great away day out. Sunshine, warm day people enjoying th chippy outside the stand before ko.
Miss those away days.
Can't remember the year, the gates were smashed open and many of us got in without paying!Rochdale away in 1984 was carnage by all accounts. I wasn't there myself but know of cars being turned over and some one being pulled back from throwing a match over petrol spilled on the road. The year later the game was all ticket and moved to a very early kick off, something like 11.30am.
The year later we just made the train after the game in time for a very lively encounter with Bolton at Burnden ParkRochdale away in 1984 was carnage by all accounts.

I was there and the behaviour of some our fans ( not sure they deserved that title) that day still makes me cringe.....I know some on here will glorify it but I am not as I witnessed some of those shocking incidents.Rochdale away in 1984 was carnage by all accounts.

That was referred to in the Rochdale programme, Boxing Day, a couple of years back. Judging by his performance, that day the Ref must have read the piece and decided to inflict retribution.I was there and the behaviour of some our fans ( not sure they deserved that title) that day still makes me cringe.....I know some on here will glorify it but I am not as I witnessed some of those shocking incidents.
I am certainly glad I parked where i did because I might not have had a car to drive home in.
Always had a soft spot for Lisa Stansfield.Had my first pint of Timothy Taylor's Landlord in there....apparently it was Lisa Stansfield's local too....

Was at Bolton, they were playing Wigan at home, we pretended to be Wigan and then gave them the shock of their lives just up the hill from their train station.The year later we just made the train after the game in time for a very lively encounter with Bolton at Burnden Park
