    You are incredibly skilled at conveying how much a football club means to us and that we follow the club through thick and thin. Even here in Norway, people have been following Rochdale. There was a lot of focus on Rochdale in a Norwegian football newspaper in the late 70s and 80s when they were in danger of losing their place in the league, but were voted back in an impressive four times.
    We have also learned that the fourth division is also called the Rochdale League. There should be three teams that are promoted directly from the National League and the fourth place goes to the playoffs.
    I hope we see Rochdale back in the football leauge soon.

    Being from the US, we don’t have promotion or relegation. Our teams have bad seasons and we just move onto next year. People stop supporting the team all together due to bad play and they take it for granted. This is why I love football. It’s just complete, raw emotions from every single fan. It makes promotion that much more meaningful.

    "Without those sad times, you just have expectation, you wouldn't have hope"
    Truer words were never spoken; I remember speaking to a New England Patriots (who play in Boston) fan after they won the Super Bowl in 2019 (their 3rd in 5 years).
    He was not elated, he wasn't even excited, it was just like any other game to him.
    Boston teams have 12 championships across leagues, and appeared in finals 12 additional times.
    Boston have so many winning sports teams that fans expect winning, and those fans have definitely turned from hope to expectation.
    I got kind of upset at his blasé attitude, because I know how much it has meant for me when my teams *almost* made it to the promised land (none have in my lifetime).
    Having a "well, that's another season done 🤷" reaction to the team that he was supposedly passionate about winning it all just rubbed me the wrong way

      One of my best moments in AFL here in Australia was when my team Geelong was beaten in the grand final by Hawthorn in 08. We were expected to win and yet we were outplayed on the day. Standing there surrounded by euphoric Hawthorn fans watching their players get their championship medals was a great metaphor for life. Sometimes it really hurts. That’s when you dig deep and keep moving forward, knowing it will get better.

    In 1987 my lot Burnley nearly did a Rochdale, we won the last game of the season to stay up. For most of us football is a cycle of ups and downs, it's only the super rich clubs that have it easy, not winning a cup or missing out on qualifying for the Champions League registers zero on the football hardship scale. I hope Rochdale come back and prosper but more importantly it's great to see that Luke will be back next season, people like him are what football is truly about. Great video.

Could never fathom Burnley's decline-particularly as they'd been in the second tier in 1982 with Trevor Steven in their side -bad owners ? Bad owners are more disastrous than a bad squad !

    Feel gutted for Rochdale, I have had a soft spot for them, ever since I started following football, way back in the 70's. I'm from New Zealand, but my grandparents are from Lancashire, and every Monday the newspapers would print the English football leagues out in their entirety. My grandfather supported PNE, and in those days would scroll down to third division tables, I used to do the same, and week after week, year after year, Rochdale would prop up the rest of the football league. Really hope that they can recover, and bounce back. When I spent some time in the UK, I lived not far from Barnet, they were a real yo-yo team, if ever there was one. They have struggled along in the National League for a few years, and their form hasn't been great lately. I have a soft spot for them as well. Bristol Rovers, and a couple of other teams have bounced back after a relatively short time in the National League, hopefully Rochdale can do it.

    My goodness, I just learned about the whole pro/rel system two years ago. And this season was the first that I watched multiple tiers of English football for the entire season starting back in August. They post promotion videos on CZcams but there aren't many interviews like this that show what it's like to be in the stands the moment your team is knocked out of the division. It honestly looks and sounds like a funeral procession coming out of the grounds. It seems to me that being relegated hurts 10x worse than the joy of gaining promotion.

    I love this style of video, and that message at the end was perfectly delivered. And that's the sad reality of football - in the blink of an eye you can find your club in the national league when 5 minutes ago you were fighting for promotion to the championship, and once you're down there, it's usually almost impossible to make it back soon (ask Yeovil Town fans as well this season - mental as a Brentford fan to think that they beat us to promotion to the championship a decade ago, and now we're top half in the prem and they're in the 6th tier next season)

    This video came up in my feed so I watched it. Firstly commiserations to the fans - this excellent video was packed with raw emotion, and here's where your hope and your first challenge awaits - bounce straight back, you can do it. I'm a Sunderland fan and watching us plummet like a stone and struggle in league one for 4 painful years was hard. And here we are now knocking on the door of the premiership. Accept this, learn from this go forth with belief and attitude and you'll do it.

    I feel the passion and disappointment in every word you said, amazing video. Football is all about the ups and downs. No clearly can that be seen than in my club here in Ireland (Cork City). We won the league and cup double in 2017, got relegated in 2021, dominated the second tier in 2022, and now we are struggling near the bottom of the premier division so far this year. The true fans are the ones who will back the club through the hardest of times. I hope this pain isn’t too prolonged for Rochdale fans.

I can guarantee you the board will already be planning a quick return but its you the fan s who make all the difference. I really hope you return next season please don't lose heart stay true YOU WILL BE BACK.

    Fair play to the Rochdale fans and fans of all clubs in the lower divisions whether football league or non league. Football is for the fans and fans are the lifeblood of any club. Away from the glitz and glamour of the top divisions, you have this more pure version of football.

    Reminds me of when my club (Grimsby) finished bottom of the EFL 2 years ago, (2020/21, behind closed doors) only that we couldn’t be there to see it happen. Maybe for those Grimsby players, it really was for the best because it would have got very ugly amongst Grimsby fans…
    Luckily for us, we ended up with better owners, denied Wrexham and went straight back to the EFL via the hardest Play Off Path that is possible. Look it up, the National League Play Offs are brutal.
    We also went on to cause 5 FA Cup Upsets (the most from any team ever in the FA Cup) which included Southampton at St. Mary’s to get a 1st FA Cup Quarter Final since 1939, and the 1st as a League 2 club since 1990; but that’s another discussion for another day. Point is, when you get relegated out of the EFL, you don’t imagine amazing stuff like THAT FA Cup Run or that immediate EFL Return happening at all.

    • @stuntpeggnieve

      Great comment. I’ve heard nothing but good things about Grimsby fans, so I would like to come and visit soon. I was so happy for you in the FA Cup, what a run. Those play offs last year were absolutely bonkers weren’t they.
      I felt the same with my Bolton a few years ago, I was at Wycombe away, we sold out the entire away stand, we didn’t know who would actually be playing as players were refusing to play because they weren’t being paid, and we thought it would be our last ever game. Suddenly, wonder woman herself Sharon Brittan saves us…since then we’ve had a promotion and a trophy at Wembley, and on track for the play offs back to the Championship! Crazy!

If you want, maybe I could tell you more about the club because a lot of the stuff that happens with us doesn't get a lot of attention, except that run and when we beat Wrexham 5-4 in the Play Off Semi Finals... in Wrexham!
