Rochdale v Fleetwood Town FC
Saturday 17 September, Crown Oil Arena, 3pm Kick Off

Rochdale are back in action at the Crown Oil Arena this weekend. Fleetwood Town are the visitors for the League One fixture.

Tickets can be bought in advance via www.rafctickets.co.uk, or in person at the RAFC Ticket Office. Fans can also pay on the day.

Manager's Notes

Dale welcome Fleetwood Town to the Crown Oil Arena this Saturday, a game Hill is looking forward to. Fleetwood have only lost one game so far this season and Hill believes Rosler, who was appointed manager at the end of July, was a good appointment for the side.

“We’ve had a good week on the training pitch, both individually and collectively, and we’re looking forward to the fixture at the weekend.

“I think Uwe Rosler [Fleetwood Town boss] is a very good appointment to the squad of players that they’ve got because he’ll fit in nicely with the way that they want to play.

“I think they found last season difficult, so with respect to that, they invested in recruitment. They didn’t invest as much last season and they ended up fighting relegation so they’ve gone back to investing. That works as long as you have good people in recruitment and a good manager/ coach to come up with a plan for success for the players that you’ve recruited, and I expect them to be very, very successful.”
