They'll really miss this lad at Wembley, he's the hearbeat of their team. Didn't realise he was 25 though, only looks about 18.

Its up to Ben Muirhead to take Dale to glory!!!!

Well although Ben Muirhead never really up-rooted trees while at VP with his performances i think he will be a real threat on the pitch at wembley along with the other winger Adam Rundle who is very highly rated(i would love to see him at VP)

Thought the lad Rene Howe upfront was a real handful as well, good team all round.

Might be a blessing in disguise, many of their fans on 606 are saying they aren't ready to go up this season but fancy their chances of an auto spot next season after Posh and MK's departure, at least now Perkins isn't playing he isn't going to be noticed/bought by anyone in a higher league if he performs on the big stage.

Then again there are plenty who do want to go up badly so it's split mood at the moment. There's no denying he's their best player.

No wonder they've been stuck down there so long if that's their attitude!!

It's true though apart from MK and Posh this season they have been the best team we've played, at the moment I would class them as shoe-ins for promotion if they can keep their best players.

IF being the word - failure to win promotion now could cost them next season - as clubs would be sniffing around their best talent and maybe the manager as well - Stockport look strong in all areas and ready for a rough and tumble - should be a good game.
