Rochdale AFC’s matchday programme — The Voice of Spotland — is back for Saturday’s League One fixture against Peterborough United.
The programme is once again a 76-page issue this season, containing plenty of reading to keep fans entertained and informed before, during and after the match.
Our new-look programme starts with a front cover image of Bradden Inman, whose two goals at Burton last Saturday got Dale’s season off to a winning start.
Meanwhile, manager Keith Hill brings us his thoughts on that game and his squad’s preparation for the new campaign.
The programme is packed with new features, including:
I WISH I’D GONE — an article looking at Dale games the author didn’t attend, but wished he had!
WHAT DALE WORE IN — we pick a season and look at the different kits Dale sported throughout the campaign.
WHEN I WAS A MASCOT — former mascots tell us the story of their day and their Dale-supporting life since.
NEW FOUND FAN — first-time season-ticket holder Steven Rittey brings us his views.
GOLDEN YEARS — Dale won promotion for the first time in 1968/69 and this series will recall that campaign game-by-game, with personal memories from fan Ian Goodwin.
We have a completely new-look visitors’ section, as well as the usual League One round-up from Jason Birch.
Many other past contributors have returned for another season, while our regular historical pages — ‘On This Day’ and ‘Through The Years’ — have had a makeover, but will still help readers to jog their Dale memory banks.
Action photos appear from the games against Stockport and Hull, while Traveller’s Tales returns with a report on the trip to Stalybridge Celtic.
There is also a centre-spread picture that will bring back special memories for all Dale fans!
All this and much, much more will be in Saturday’s The Voice of Spotland, on sale in the Club Shop and around the ground, priced £3.00.
