Under 4K,shocking for a sunday afternoon.
And the away attendance puts some SL clubs to shame eh ?

Agree on leaving Ellis out til London, yes it would be a more high profile 'comeback' against Wigan, but we've got him for another 2.5 years and coming back against the best side in the competition would be a massive ask.

How is it shocking? the game was always going to be like a training session.

Great attitude that,sorry but i disagree ... 1st team, cup game,support your team ? at home ?
Imagine that North Wales are well over the moon with their share eh ?

Gentle said he was "flying" in training and will want to play, but sort of re-iterated your longer term view above. Then said if he says he's right later in the week, he'll play. Wouldn't be surprised either way.

You played a SL team who filled the away end . What was you attendance again ?

Saved my money today and will use what I saved to get my Magic Weekend ticket instead. I won't pay to attend games that are complete non-contests, I don't go to friendlies for the same reason.

I've often thought the RFL would be best introducing a rule that a Championship club plays at home in the first 2 rounds if they draw an SL crowd. That way they would get the bar takings, the 'hype' of an SL club coming to town might get a few more locals to the game and it saves on the costs of opening large SL grounds for tiny crowds.

Just like your effort of 4500 yesterday?

How many did Crusaders bring?

So just to get it straight. Rovers fans are on here raising concerns over our attendance?.
You couldn't make it up.

100 or so. About double Hudds did on their last visit.

Good to see their fans making an effort

Yeah, saw Rochdale v Crusaders last year and they had a good, vocal following their too. Best chant of the day was after they were awarded a penalty and they sung 'the referee's a Welshman'.

Sorry the best chant was when your msscot came into the area where we were sat and the chant of No Pets Allowed went up. Fair play to him thoigh he wad great acknowledging the Cru support ss were your team coming over at the end. Last 20 minutes were a bit on an masacre but that apart we did as well as could be expected and hopefully we can battle like that in every game with promotion a very realistic possibility.

Wishing you all the best in your promotion bid. Great support today and can't question your team's effort.

Very proud of the way they have played today and all season and hopefully we will carry it through the whole season.

Didn't FC pass holders get in free today?

wahoo, another Rovers troll.

Pretty average for much of the game apart from the blow out in the last twenty minutes or so.

Shaul continues to impress, always looked dangerous and he has a great turn of pace.

The attendance was a tad disappointing, but a lunchtime kick off against a part time team is hardly going to pull the punters in. It's hilarious that Rovers fans have a go at this when they couldn't break 4500 against Super League opposition.

lol ours was on live free to air TV so obviously the away support would be down,yours was on a normal sunday gameday,i honestly thought fc would get more than us.
Our crowds are about 7000 so was about 3500 down,yours about 10500 so about 5000 down?

I'll take that as a yes then hahaha!

you'd be wrong then. Juniors did, Adults Didn't.

You forgot about who both teams were playing ? Oh wait it doesnt suit your agenda now does it

Our normal gameday is a friday you thick get.

He's got a lot on his mind. Mainly Jacob Miller.
