Their midfield is looking stronger than ours apparently. Holmes had to commit a foul to break stuff down, no yellow but just in shooting or crossing range. Caravan, Kitchen and Gerry all up there. Andrew the target man waits for it.
Botaka has it on the wing, he goes for it, finds Watt, tries a nutmeg, fails, Caravan is having none of Watt's flair and clears it, off crofts for a throw.
Botaka gets it, and watt involved, he is stopped, and loses out, they counter and we put it out, dale quick, watt trying to cover back, and they play a poor pass, but finally we build, but through to their keeper
Long ball from Rochdale, win the second ball. McDermott on the run, Tex gets a foot in, but Rochdale keep getting it back. Wilson to Caravan, he goes long for Andrew, but they can't get it and we get a throw in.
Page takes it. Finds Josh, flicks it on, they get it, they go down the line, Page to Holmes, 1-2 with Josh, they get a throw in. Gerry throws it to Keen, he finds Camps, abck to Caravan, he finds Allen, Crofts gets a foot in, Botaka runs but confuses himself and they get it back.
Holmes helps to close them down, but they kepe it. Kitchen down the line, finds Allen but Rudd gets it, he finds JFC, to Crofts, who is run over by a Caravan.
WE cut one out with page at the expense of a throw dale across the pitch, and botaka steals it, but stands on ball, we win it and lose it, good attack from dale ball too heavy tho Rudd has it then a dale player fouls somebody
Caravan gets told off. We get going, down the wing, Watt makes a good run and JFC finds him, Watt tried to put it across the goalmouth but skewed it high over the bar. Caravan breaks down, apparently he drove into our player and hurt himself.
Andrew wins a long ball header. They build but Solly gets it and comes forward. Finds Crofts. Long ball for Josh (might as well cut and paste that). Commentator thinks we look livelier albeit without doing anything effectively.

Ball goes in, Henderson mis-heads it miles wide.

ball too heavy tho
Rudd has it
then a dale player fouls somebody
they say dale are disjointed this half, but we are much better
I've more than doubled my money if I cash out now.
Page gives a free kick away. Camps gets it, Gerry finds his keeper. They ess about, we get a throw. all a bit messy.
Watt and JFC play it about, go long, they get a head in, we get a throw in their half.
JFC to Tex, closed down so finds Bauer, he finds Holmes but he's offside. They have a high line, and we have no idea how to deal with it.
They pack up the Kitchen and bring on Lazarus.
Hitchins off for Noble lazarus at left back
anticipate him bombing on
