Rochdale AFC's matchday programme - The Voice of Spotland - returns for this week's home friendlies against Bolton and Bradford.

Reduced to a 16-page issue covering both matches, the programme still contains many articles of interest to keep you occupied before, during or after the game. The Bolton and Bradford squads are covered in depth, while Scrutator offers his opinions on where England went wrong in the World Cup.

There is a double dose of Traveller's Tales to conclude last season and start this campaign, while there is a comprehensive preview of our opening League 1 fixture against Hartlepool. We also have news of sponsorship opportunities for all fans, as well as a reminder of the club's season ticket details.

The Voice of Spotland will be on sale in the Club Shop and around the ground priced at just £1.00.

PLEASE NOTE: As is tradition with The Voice of Spotland, we like to keep the new season design and layout under wraps until the first home game of the campaign. Therefore, the new-look, larger matchday programme will appear for the first time at the League 1 fixture against Hartlepool on Saturday 7th August. Keep an eye on the website for more details in the coming weeks.
