Rochdale AFC’s matchday programme – The Voice of Spotland – is back for Saturday’s Enterprise National League fixture against Southend United.

TVOS has been overhauled for this season, but still contains many of its popular 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 Devante Rodney, who scored three goals in our meetings with The Shrimpers last season.

Jimmy McNulty looks back at last Saturday’s win at Truro City, after which we have a host of features, including:

STATS OF THE DAY – the numbers that matter a month into the season

A REAL COUPE – supporter Dave Coupe continues to reflect on his 40 years as a fan

ON THIS DAY – previous games and Dale players connected to 20th September.

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

SCRUTATOR – the longest-serving columnist in football programmes returns with his nemesis, ‘Bloke in the Pub’.

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.

HAT-TRICK HEROES - a new feature that looks at hat-tricks scored by Dale players. This time, the final hat-trick by the player with the most trebles for the club.

DALE ACTION – a selection of images from the league games against Gateshead and Brackley Town.

TRAVELLER’S TALES – the ever-popular write-up of watching Dale on the road, with reflections on the trip to Brackley Town.

DO YOU REMEMBER THAT - a new series that reminisces about unusual moments and incidents that often crop up in Dale-related conversations. This time, a game in which Dale kept fluffing their lines from 12-yards.

Visitors Southend United get five pages of coverage, which includes a fantasy 5-a-Side team made-up of players who represented both clubs.

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