The Overcoat Men - BBC Radio Manchester 20:04 - Oct 28 with 4067 viewsLDuffy

Dale fans will be interested to know that the Overcoat Men - former chairman David Kilpatrick and financial director, Graham Morris - who feature in Mark Hodkinson's book of the same name, will be on BBC Radio Manchester on Wednesday.

Mark, David and Graham are the guests of Mike Sweeney on his programme, which runs from 9am until noon. They will discuss the book, of course, and all matters Dale.

Copies of The Overcoat Men are still available by mail order from: https://www.pomonauk.com/shop/store.php

I'm halfway through the book and loving it. Just wondering when Rochdale Lacrosse Club were based in Bamford/Norden though?

Poll: What is it to be then?

There's quite a good (though partly behind a paywall) review in the current (29 Nov) Times Literary Supplement:

The book has had some great reviews. It received almost a page of coverage in last week's Football League Paper.

Mark's agent is in talks with a producer keen to turn the book into film or television drama. Early days, but promising.

Copies are available from: https://www.pomonauk.com/shop/store.php
Mark is happy to sign copies.

One of the people who helped save The Dale back in the day and is mentioned in the book has passed away recently. R.I.P. John Faulks.

Had a backlog of books to get through so finally started Overcoat Men on Sunday and I've just finished it. Absolutely brilliant, think it has a wider interest but I'd consider it a must-read for any Dale fan.

Tangled up in blue.
