Official Match Thread Rochdale vs Southend United

[Harry Bullocks]

As said earlier, 2 teams that actually want to play rather than kick lumps out of each other

 

[Medway Blue]

100%. We have to start being more direct in the final third.

The front two of walker and Pebble are the right pairing. And I can see them doing well this season.

We've been no less direct today in the final than we were last season. We just pick our moments. We've created the 3 best chances of the entire first half, all from crosses, so I'm not sure what there is to moan about today.

Very good away performance for the first half, created the most and the better chances, and very deservedly leading at the break. Credit where it's due, but must continue 2nd half.

Gave up with DAZN.(even younger people couldn’t help) and now listening on BBC Essex (tho that is a bit ‘Norman Collier’ - ask your Grandad). Home crowd subdued, my preferred duo of People and Walker doing well, as is young Wind, so all is good. Now thoroughly enjoying the Farmers manager sounding soooooo depressed during his post-match interview!

Very even first 45. Both teams having spells dominating without creating clear chances.

We score a goal and so a beer is opened

Continue this first half into the second. Just add a bit of ruthlessness imho.

Sadly not able to watch as away for weekend .. how’s Wind doing? Is he getting down the right at pace and whipping crosses in? How’s his style of play differing to Gus?

 

[Tommy2holes]

Like the shape of the team

Wind is having a good game.
Husin working hard and his cross for the goal was brilliant.

Pebble is a great loanee and a proper lump too. Pacey, strong and has a good touch and an eye for goal. Perfect partner for walker.

My one gripe is how many times we reach the final third and end up going backwards. Put the ball into the box. Rochdale are there for the taking.

Hes up against their danger man and holding his own so far. Got in at the back post once but couldn't connect with the cross

Nltv site...all good ...picture and commentary.

 

[overseas shrimper]

Switched audio commentary off. Was driving me mad with all the cutting out.

 

[Sufc.2008]

Slightly awkward that our official Instagram account think Pepple scored!

Love that Josh Walker not letting their winger bully Wind there

 

[londonblue]

I might listen to the Eastbourne Borough match. Their commentary is working fine.

 

[Harry Bullocks]
