Ethan in Ethan out
We'll be missing one through suspension whilst another is welcomed back after a one match ban.
Dale will be forced to be without Ethan Hamilton on Saturday afternoon when Shrewsbury Town come to the Crown Oil Arena. The on loan midfielder was sent off in last weekend's defeat at Luton Town for two yellow cards and as such has picked up a one match ban. This will be a blow to Dale as the midfielder has impressed during his time with the club so far, with a couple of goals to his name.
However, we will be boosted by the return of Ethan Ebanks-Landell who comes back into the side following his one match ban. He picked up a red card in the 5-1 thrashing at Plymouth and missed the trip to Luton as a result.
Dale have also extended the emergency loan of Andy Lonergan with Josh Lillis still a fortnight away from a return.

Brave Swans in memorable game at Carrow Road It was a pulsating game to watch and very much one of my favourite away games of the season. The Swans looked an entirely different side to that we saw at Middlesbrough when it is clear a catalyst for commitment was agreed behind the scenes at Swansea City. To a man every player grafted and
wore the shirt with pride. To see the players really acknowledge the Swans support at Carrow Road this afternoon was emotional.
Swansea reject Cullen contract and trigger one year option Liam Cullen has had his request for a new contract dismissed by Swansea City after discussions broke down last week. The lowest paid ‘senior’ player at the club ( he is twenty five) asked for a better contract increasing his £3,500 a week to around £7,000 a week over three years.
Sam Parker hasn’t turned down a new deal, he is willing to negotiate He was a revelation for the Swans for the few games he played this season, and now it emerges Sam Parker has ‘turned down’ a new Swansea City contract. News is thin on the ground, and some of it just incorrect as he looks to involve his representatives in some further negotiations. Plus his current contract runs for two more years.
Swansea City : The vision is clearer, so Jamal Lowe ? There were some worrying moments for the Swans yesterday, on three occasions mistakes from playing out from the back nearly saw the home side score. And is there now a case for Jamal Lowe to be offered a contract at Swansea ?
