I don't know how well you get on with Bury fans. We had a drink in their social club by the ground. They were quite friendly. They also sold food in there.

As far as I know, we get on well with them - better than Dale fans anyway

Dale fans were friendly enough

I'm sure they'll remember we stood by them when they needed us.

I can't wait for this one!

we were well numbered and very loud last year on a tuesday night so hopefulyl a saturday will make for more people and more beer = more noise!!!!!!!

[Willie Miller]

Even when not well numbered we very loud. Best thing about last year was in the bar. No home fans at all & very very noisy in there too....

Even better was ex players joining us.... (Halford)
