Dale reject Owls offer for O'Grady

speaking as somebody whose actually watched him, get him signed asap.

i live in rochdale and take in the odd game when nothing else to do. He's much more effective as a striker, but very good on the left. in a good team he would score a bucket load, he has everything in his game. People who say he rubbish or a donkey just annoy me when they havent watched him.

consider me your chief scout for this one pal. Rochdale is a good little club for getting strikers careers back on track. Dagnall, Le Fondre, Grant Holt, Ricky Lambert. O'Grady is just the latest in a soon to be long line.

from what you guys are saying he sounds like an exciting player, hope we can sign him.

Dezzy I don't care where you live. Ive seen him play. He's absolutely dyer. 13 goals in 51 games at Rotherham? He's played for 9 teams and he's 25 (clearly doesn't settle) he's had one prolific season and that was in League 2? But how many seasons has he has in league 2 where he has not been prolific. He is not going to fire us into Championship… and for those of you saying well he played on the left for some of the season… he got 1 league assist all season! Fact! So he doesn't create problems. Let's look elsewhere please!

I didnt see rochdale either game last year but from what you and my uncle have said dezzy he seems a good buy. I havent seen us linked with a player this pre season without seeing people moan about it why not relax and trust megson it makes a change for us being linked with players for fees

When they asked Johnnnny Sheridan about being linked wiv him he wasnt impressed with him he said something along the lines of 'ad im at Oldham dint do much to impress mi theer' 'so definitely NOT interested' - but if he comes hope ya right dezzy personally think we could do better.

... good to see our fans are all singing from the same hymn sheet. anyway, thoughts on the new kit??

I think we should all calm down a bit and some people should be a little more respectful to other peoples opinions. No-one knows how O'Grady will do until he actually comes, if he does. He won't be playing for Rochdale or Oldham, he'll be playing or Wednesday with new team-mates and expectations. Megson obviously sees something worth taking a punt on and its what O'Grady does if he comes that matters. That said, I actually like the new home shirt!

Ok Dezzy well saying "You've never seen him play" is just an assumption? I wouldn't jump to telling me what I have and haven't seen when your spouting off that he set 3 up against Huddersfield when he didn't? and your telling me to "watch some football", maybe you should pay attention?

Well numbnuts, saying he's a flop and awful leads me to believe you havent seen him play, if you had, you would realise how wrong you are. Yes i got mixed up regarding huddersfield, he scored, he did better than what i said and also a damn sight more than our lot did against them. Go on then old wise one, what strikers should we go for?

DezzyP and SheffWed 93 will you two get a room and sort out yoru differences! As for Balli80 - great stirring!!

Sussex your bang on mate we need to spend some cash or we will still be hear next year! as for dezzyp and sheffwed93 it's great lads keep it up i just hope the team has this much Passion

Well he's played for 7 clubs since 2007 so he hasn't impressed all these clubs enough to stay? He had 1 good seasons in L2, not cut it in L1 up front or on wings. Saying i've never seen him is your only point, which is wrong, as is everything else you've said. There is more than Just Huddesfield in the league? Wednesday scored more goals in the league last season overall than Rochdale so again you have no point? Happy with Mellor he proved he can do it at Wednesday so why take a gamble on someone whose unproven, plus another striker. But our main priority is wingers or at least it should be, someone like Dean Cox, Nicky Adams, Liam Feeney maybe.

Also, you said earlier he played for 9 teams, now its 7, make your mind up lad, shouldnt be that hard with his wiki page infront of you.

The ramblings of a madman continues. its like talking to a brick wall, but you would get more sense out of a brick wall. Never have i heard anybody so stubborn and stupid, its borderline pathetic. iv watched him (unlike your idiotic self) been very impressed, most rochdale supporters i know say he's the best player to pull on their shirt for years, and they have had players who have gone on to play in the top flight, and all them are wrong because some internet retard looks at a wiki page........grow up.

They say that because they got out of L2 for the first time in 40 years? Insult me with your stupid but the only one who has stated things that are not true? You say you seen him play and exaggerated how he played so who can believe you? You say he did all this and that but I proved you wrong and all you say is "you haven't seen him play". Rochdale are not the only club to have players go and play in the premier league ha. Infact the only player I can think that has gone to play in Prem is G.Holt and that Dawson centre half but none of them have played in the Prem yet. You say you've watched him but tried to overexaggerate what he has done to get people to think he's good but you clearly didn't have a clue. Charlie Austin played for Poole Town in non league does it mean we should go and sign their current centre forward just because he came from the same club as another good player? No. Yet again your fingers are typing and your brain doesn't have a clue whats even happening. Rochdale FC... The only source of footballer on the planet since Dezzy went to watch Chris O'Grady.

First of all you asked no question haha. 2nd you did say " Dagnall, Le Fondre, Grant Holt, Ricky Lambert. O'Grady is just the latest in a soon to be long line" so you are saying because he plays for Rochdale he is a going to be a good player. Apart from filling your messages up with petty computer insults do you have a point? please if your going to try and put up a respectful argument remember what you've said... You clearly have no idea what your on about. All you can say is Rochdale this, Rochdale that, I live here, no one has ever seen him play apart from me and the town of Rochdale, you make out like you must live in Rochdale to know what a basic player like O'Grady is like? Keep up lad.
