Dale's longest serving managers
Friday, 10th Aug 2012 03:00 by Col

Ted Goodier is comfortably the longest serving Dale manager, helped in no small way due to World War II, though there are suggestions that he did have a brief spell away from the club back in 1943 which calls his stint into question.
