Rochdale AFC will pay tribute to those servicemen, women and former players who have fallen, as part of our 2024 Remembrance commemorations this weekend.
Players from our Military Veterans team will be in attendance, as will members of GTAS (Get Together After Serving), along with local navy cadets.
A bucket collection is being held by the Lee Rigby Foundation. They will be positioned within the stadium from 2pm, when turnstiles open.
Ahead of kick-off, council representatives, dignitaries from the Royal British Legion and club representatives will form a line on the edge of the circle, with managers of both clubs laying poppy wreaths on the centre circle.
Our Club Chaplain, Richard Bradley, will read the poem ‘For The Fallen’, which will then be followed by the playing of ‘The Last Post’ and a minute’s silence.
Supporters are advised to be in the stadium early, as we expect commemorations to begin at around 2.45pm.
We will remember them.

As many of you know I am very open about how we operate and we are always here make the match day experience a good one.
Today, I'd like to let you know that we are short in some areas and that all hands are required for Ian Henderson's first testimonial dinner. To save time and keep all staff members on the bars, keep everything running smoothly. Plastic will be used in the Ratcliffe and Dale Bars. Our spot may also use plastic if stretched with staff moving bars. I hope you understand our reasons for this. The Ratcliffe is set and ready for Ian, We please ask that you refrain from using this area.
The Ratcliffe will close after half time and aim to reopen at the final whistle for Hendo. This is a ticket only event.
Another note Ratcliffe & Dale Bar will open at 3 p.m., although the Ratcliffe will have reduced capacity. Southend are anticipating bringing 300 and 500 supporters. We expect a very busy pre-match and encourage supporters to arrive as soon as possible.
I would be grateful if any away supporters find themselves in Dale bar to kindly understand and welcome in our match day bars.
Thanks again and any issues experienced please report back.

Thread | Cask Ale Ratcliffe/Dale Bar
at 17:13 2 Oct 2024
Hello everyone, I've been considering the idea of introducing another cask ale, which has been suggested here a few times. Currently, we have MPA, which is quite a popular drink. On average, it sells two barrels on Saturday and one barrel during Tuesday matches.
Both bars are served by the same barrel, with two pumps each. There are a couple of options: introduce a new cask for both bars running off the same barrel, which would mean losing MPA entirely, or keep MPA in the Dale Bar and introduce a different cask in The Ratcliffe.
We must take wastage into account; once a cask ale is tapped, we have only five days to sell it. This is why it may sometimes run out at half-time, and we choose not to tap another one. Simply put, we cannot sell another 60 pints within the remaining time, and it won't last until the next home match. With matches scheduled for both Saturday and Tuesday, it might be feasible to attempt this.
Over the past two seasons, we've featured plum pudding at Christmas from a single barrel, and it was well-received. However, I'm aware that there were supporters who missed their MPA.
I prefer to supply both bars from a single barrel, as it's the most efficient way to reduce waste. However, I am aware that this may inconvenience some supporters if they cannot purchase their regular matchday drink, possibly resulting in a less enjoyable matchday experience.
Please let us know your feedback
Thank you
