Eastbourne Game OFF

[oliv272]

Understandable I doubt the players feel like playing at the moment.

The right option - I don't think either the players or fans are up for a game at the moment.

The next game is against Luton on Boxing Day, so we will hopefully have a big crowd to pay their respects.

Right decision this, fully understand that players, staff and fans minds would'nt be on the game :(

I agree with this - Eastbourne is too soon and there is something appropriate about a big game & big gate to show Dale their respect. I hope that the decision is for a silent rather than applause tribute. I like the latter in some circumstances, but I think they are most appropriate for those who have lived their life and a sense of a live fulfilled.

I would prefer the silent, thoughtful and reflective choice in this case.

I agree, I feel a silence is probably the more respectful, but I would also understand an applause. I can imagine there's only one Dale Roberts will be sang the full 90 minutes.
