Rochdale AFC’s matchday programme — The Voice of Spotland — is back for Saturday’s League One fixture against AFC Wimbledon.

The programme is once again a 76-page issue containing plenty of reading to keep fans entertained and informed before, during and after the match.

We start with a lifestyle front cover image of defender Joe Rafferty, who made his league debut for Dale against The Dons four years ago.

Joe is the subject of the programme’s new Q&A feature, in which we find out what he recently went to see at the cinema.

We also have an interview with former Dale and Wimbledon goalkeeper Steve Banks and supporters John Rowe and Dylan Peacock again bring us their opinion columns.

In ‘On This Day’ we recall a win that took Dale to the top of the table, while Scrutator tells us about meeting a West Ham fan on holiday.

Action photos appear from the friendlies against Macclesfield and FC United and Traveller’s Tales reports on the trip to Sheffield United.

There is the usual taxing half-time quiz to test your Dale knowledge and ‘Colour Confusion’ looks at why Dale wore their away kit in a home game against Brentford.

Visitors AFC Wimbledon get nine pages of coverage, which includes five thoughts that pop into our minds whenever Dale take on The Dons.

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.
