If I'm thinking of the right game, Macca handballed it in the box and gave away a penalty.
That's the one. Bell scored our goal with a great run and finish from the edge of the box.

I think we had only 5 players in the squad that day that featured in our final game of the season, and one of them was Daniel Grainger. A ridiculous turnaround in players.

The others for those interested were Phil Gulliver, Rob Gier, Magnus Okuonghae and Marcus Kelly.
They say we've lost our money we're not famous anymore.....

If the Macca of his loan spell had turned up that season then we would have had a formidable midfield.... unfortunately he didn't.

You could have 140 years of no achievement, or twenty years of glorious victories, you decide.

One Dale Roberts.

Good point - and worth comparing to last season, where 15 of the 16 players in the squad for the first game against Salisbury were still with the club at the end of the season - and Mark Byrne and Matt Pattison weren't in the 16.

Yeah that was a massive disappointment, never has a player played for a contract more than him.
R.I.P Dale. We will never forget you.
