TVOS Preview - Rochdale v Braintree Town

Rochdale AFC’s matchday programme – The Voice of Spotland – is back for Saturday’s Vanarama National League fixture against Braintree Town.

TVOS has had a revamp for this season, but still contains many of the 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 goalkeeper David Robson, who had appeared in all of September’s fixtures before Tuesday’s trip to Hartlepool.

Jimmy McNulty reflects on that victory in the North-East, after which we have a host of features, including:

ON THIS DAY – previous games and Dale events on 28th September.

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

OVERSEAS DALE – a new series looking at Dale players who were born away from these shores. This time, it’s a defender from the Caribbean.

SCRUTATOR – the longest-serving columnist in football programmes returns to look at astronomical admission prices.

ACROSS THE WATER – Bray-based Dale fan Brian Quigley is back with his look at general football matters.

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

DALE ACTION – a selection of images from the games against Woking and Aldershot Town.

TRAVELLER’S TALES – after a season’s hiatus, the popular write-up of watching Dale on the road is back, with reflections on the trip to York Town.

THEY SCORED IN TIME ALLOWED! - a new feature about Dale goals scored after the fourth official’s board went up. This issue looks at an away goal on this weekend in 2007.

ANORAK’S CORNER – our semi-regular statistical page is back to look at some of the milestones already reached this season.

Visitors Braintree Town get four pages of coverage and there are also previews of our upcoming home and away fixtures.

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