Rochdale AFC’s matchday programme – The Voice of Spotland – is back for Saturday’s Vanarama National League fixture against Dagenham & Redbridge.

TVOS has had a revamp for this season, but still contains many of the features – and new ones – to keep you entertained and informed before, during and after the match!

The programme starts with a front cover image of striker Kairo Mitchell, who was our leading scorer last season with 14 goals.

Jimmy McNulty pens his first notes of the campaign, after which we have a host of features, including:

ON THIS DAY – previous games and Dale events on 17th August.

HALF-TIME QUIZ – an updated quiz page that tests your Dale and general footballing knowledge.

OVERSEAS DALE – a new series looking at Dale players who were born away from these shores.

SCRUTATOR – the longest-serving columnist in football programmes (probably) returns with his forthright views.

ACROSS THE WATER – Bray-based Dale fan Brian Quigley is back with his take on general football matters.

THROUGH THE YEARS – what Dale were doing at this time 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 & 50 Years Ago.

DALE ACTION – a selection of images from the pre-season friendlies against Warrington and Macclesfield.

TRAVELLER’S TALES – after a season’s hiatus, the popular write-up of watching Dale on the road is back, with reflections on the game at Warrington.

THEY SCORED IN TIME ALLOWED! - a new feature about crucial Dale goals scored after the fourth official’s board went up.

Visitors Dagenham & Redbridge get five pages of coverage and there are also previews of our upcoming home and away fixtures.

All this and more will be in Saturday’s The Voice of Spotland, on sale in the Club Shop and around the ground, priced £3.00.
