    A first League meeting of the sides.I’m going for a 2-0 win to maintain our 100% League start.

    Rochdale have been widely tipped to go straight back down, so I think this should be a fairly routine win. If we’re serious about promotion, we’ve got to beat the weak teams regularly really. I know we’re missing several players through injury, but I think we’ve got a good enough squad to prevail today.

    I’m going for a 3-1 win.

    Confident, strong all round performance with at least one idiot mistake, 3-1

    And remain top of the league.

    COYBs!

    Bench is looking ok, starting 11....hmmm. Still, thankfully it's Rochdale so, we should win!

    Does look thin up front,but see how we go. As we all know, we have strong players in the wings.

    Very, very slow and shaky start from Town.

    The sooner Toto fades to reserves the better! Big liability.

    I don’t think it’s just Toto. Something has gone wrong with the team talk, prep or warm up here.

    Commentary speaks of a bright start for Toiwn - should have scored!

    0--0 at the half. some decent football played, the pace just needs to be a bit quicker at times.

    They were talking about the first two or three minutes.

    We’ve had a good chance with a Hawkins header, but if Rochdale had come at us a bit more we’d be behind, leaving so much space for them to play in our defensive third. There are few signs of the football we played a couple of weeks ago. It has not been as flowing or zippy - all a bit laboured. Poor all round, but if we come out second half three points are there for the taking.

    I like what Ward brings to the left, intelligent crosses and pull backs.

    Too easy for Town. Players were queuing up for that one.

    Very pleasing that although there are gaps, especially up front, we seem to have a more settled side this year.
