Rochdale AFC pitch update

Date published: 14 February 2017


Work continues on the Crown Oil Arena pitch, with contractors starting to lay the new turf.

It has been arriving at regular intervals via a convoy of lorries.

The Board of Directors made the decision to have the ptich relaid due to a rapid decline in the Crown Oil Arena pitch since the end of December, which is not conducive to Dale's style of football.

Premier Pitches – the UK and Europe’s leading sport turf contractors - is carrying out the work.

The pitch will be ready for the game against Charlton Athletic on Saturday.
