       Peter Wright’s first U’s game since… Sutton vs Colchester last
       season!
       Great derby game for Scott Oldham, our Alex fans get Mather in a
       good looking game, while first year Ed Duckworth gets the other
       basement battle in L2. Didn’t have Bradford Barrow as an SG2
       game but there we are!

       As an Alex fan, I shall be sorry to miss this Saturday's game,
       sorry because of the current standings of both Crewe and Notts
       County in L2 and sorry because I may miss the sort of
       entertainment we had yesterday in our FA Cup game v Derby. I've
       not seen Simon Mather before and I wish him well at the Alex
       this weekend.

       I’ll be there and I’ve only seen Simon once when Crewe player
       Ipswich at the end of the 21/22 season. I’ll be responsible for
       reporting back then!

       Mr Duckworth hasn't attracted much positive comment since his
       promotion to the FL list and the battles of the Rovers are
       usually feisty. Hopefully he surprises us.

       Alan Young at Grimsby for the second time in 18 days.
       Tue 24th October (Home v Colchester)
       and now
       Sat 11th November (Home v Morecombe)
       Two home games in a row !
       Never known before?

       Perhaps he is eyeing up making Grimsby his second home like
       Haines did at Rochdale!

       Scott Oldham took over in the end in our game on the 24th, so
       imagine Alan wouldn’t have been appointed if he’d done that one.

       It won't be known this time either!
       I can give a couple of older examples...
       6/12/86 Rochdale v Wrexham (FA Cup) - John Key
       26/12/86 Rochdale v Tranmere (Div 4) - John Key
       28/12/98 Hartlepool v Rochdale (Div 3) - Roger Furnandiz
       2/1/99 Darlington v Rochdale (Div 3) - Roger Furnandiz
       I think Furnandiz was a late replacement in the second game, but
       I'll have to dig out the programme to check. He definitely
       refereed both games though.
