TVOS Preview: Rochdale v Hartlepool United

Rochdale AFC’s matchday programme – The Voice of Spotland – is back for Monday’s Vanarama National League fixture against Hartlepool United.

TVOS starts with a front cover image of striker Devante Rodney, a former Hartlepool player who scored the winning goal against Maidenhead in our last home match.

Head Coach Jimmy McNulty reflects on that defeat of The Magpies, after which we have a host of features, including:

ON THIS DAY – previous games and Dale events on 1st April.

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

DALE ACTION – a selection of images and all the important stats and facts from the games against Ebbsfleet United, Barnet and Oxford City.

WHAT I WORE – the shirts worn and enjoyed by Devante Rodney

DALE ALTER EGOS – a former Dale player who shares his name with a Premier League referee

ONCE A DALEY – two ex-Dale players who either appeared only once or who scored one goal for the club

Visitors Hartlepool United receive five pages of coverage, which includes a numerical look at some of the games and players that connect the two clubs.

Meanwhile, columnist Brian Quigley is back with a feature about former Scotland goalkeeper, Alan Rough.

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