The Dale squad set off for London this morning ahead of the weekend’s fixture against AFC Wimbledon at Kingsmeadow, and manager Keith Hill is looking forward to the game.

“I respect any opposition," said Hill. "There’s certain ways that we want to play and we’ll stick to our principles. I can’t and won’t change the group of players that we’ve got. We’ll consistently keep trying to win as many games as we possibly can.

"Over the 46 games we’ve played since I’ve been back at the club we’ve got 72 points, which would get us into the play-offs. I think that would be some type of success for this football club, after having only achieved that three times in the history of the football club. So we’re aiming for at least that, but I do believe that there’s till one place up for grabs in the automatic promotion pack.”
