Rochdale FC

Darlington 2 Rochdale 1

ROCHDALE suffered a cruel late blow against Darlington in the play-off semi-final first leg clash after Ian Miller scored in injury time.

Earlier, Dale's Chris Dagnall struck to cancel out Jason Kennedy's impressive opener, and Keith Hill's men looked the more likely to score again.

 

Do us proud!

Do us proud!

THE town’s name having been dragged through the mud by sections of the national press this week, Keith Hill’s talented young team can provide a welcome shot in the arm for Rochdale today.

'Why would we change our winning formula?'

PREPARING for this evening’s play-off semi-final first leg against Darlington has been a case of business as usual for Keith Hill and his squad this week.


 

Weight of expectation on Penney's team

Weight of expectation on Penney's team

DAVE Penney has a wealth of options at his disposal going into this evening’s play-off semi-final and little wonder – his Darlington outfit are one of the most expensively assembled squads in the division.

Something in the air when boys of '69 made history
