Rochdale AFC is aware of social media posts linking the Club with a large scale gathering at the nearby Denehurst Cemetery, as well as on our car park.
The Club were not involved in the organisation of this funeral and no permission was given by the Club for the car park to be used in this manner.
Whilst our sympathies are with the bereaved family, the Football Club would like to reiterate the message that the observation of social distancing and all Government guidelines regarding Covid 19 are paramount. Therefore, the Police and Council were informed immediately.
