	SPOTLAND BRIDGE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Spotland Bridge is a "might have been" based on the idea that the Rochdale - Bacup line took a more westerly route, leaving the Manchester - Leeds line at Castleton, desending into the Roch Valley to serve Rochdale Gasworks before striking North to climb up the Spodden Valley.
		Spotland Bridge is, or rather was, a heavily industrialised area in Rochdale, with it's associated terraced housing.
		The row of terraces is actually based on a row on Spotland Rd in Rochdale.

	Internet Football Ground Guide - Fans Ground Reviews, Spotland, Rochdale
		Some of the weather I encountered on the drive was appalling, reducing me to under 20 mph on the M6 at one time, but we fought our way through the storms and the usual traffic problems to arrive in the small town of Rochdale just after 1 o'clock.
		Overall, Spotland is very pleasing to the eye and they may be a small club who have achieved very little success, but that has not prevented them from establishing an attractive set-up that is amongst the best in the division.
		Spotland is one those places where I could return to time after time, especially if the football remains as good as was served up on this visit.

	Grounds Tour - Spotland - Rochdale (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Spotland, home to Rochdale FC, was a ground that I had heard receiving so many compliments, ranging from the design of the stadium to the friendly welcome offered to all supporters.
		After initial feelings of awe at the size and magnificence of some of the Premiership's biggest grounds has worn off, there is little left to capture the imagination about the venue.
		Whilst Spotland hadn't quite lived up to my expectations, in the short time I had spent in the stadium, I had developed a degree of fondness for the place.

		Spotland, as Rochdale FC's windswept ground is called, was the other side of town and shared equal billing on road signs with The Gracie Fields Theatre, named after the town's great singer.
		And in case we didn't know who she was, a regular at the Church Inn - just a clog's throw away from Spotland - would later burst into song for us with one of the girl's classic ditties.
		A deserted Spotland showed no signs of the euphoria that had graced her terraces 48 hours earlier after a capacity crowd saw Dale beat Coventry 2-0 to book a berth in the FA Cup's fifth round.

		Spotland continues to evolve at a rapid rate, the ground is unrecognisable from the ground that I first watched from 14 years ago.
		Yesterday at Spotland we saw a case of the former as Dale began brightly but then took their foot off the accelerator.
		HOWEVER I am informed by very reliable sources inside Spotland that Parkin is staying, so as far as I am concerned that is the matter dead.

		The other ways to get up on to Lenny Barn were via the 'White Path' a concrete path that lead up to Foot Wood at the back of the school or you scrambled up the cliff.

		However, good news was that their was a welcome return for Jason Barnett after a lengthy toe ligament injury, though their was no place for his young deputy, Anthony Henry, even on the substitutes bench.
		The Imps clearly travelled to Spotland with the aim of getting a draw against one of the meanest defences in the league.
		Dale had not been beaten since November on their home turf, so a hard game, as usual against the Greater Manchester side, was in store.

		Mark had a fine first season at Spotland, establishing himself at the heart of the Dale defence alongside Keith Hill, but struggled to escape the attentions of the referees.
		Mark started his second season at Spotland serving a suspension from a previous sending off, and it was no surprise early in the season, when he found himself sent off again at old club Rotherham for a professional foul.
		Despite the number of red cards that he has picked up at Spotland, he is a long, long way from being a dirty player.

	Rochdale Hornets : Onward Hornets Onward (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Rochdale AFC had somewhere to play, huge debts and plans from a housing developer showing how the land on which Spotland stands would look with lots of houses built on it.
		Interestingly, to our knowledge, it was a change in Council administration - and a subsequent change of mind about their commitment to co-funding the main stand - that left both clubs with a huge shortfall.
		And whilst the Hornets/Dale relationship might feel a little strained at times, our 13 year partnership is still the template for successful ground sharing in both sports.

		Fast-forward to the present, and the Latics are preparing for their debut season in the Premiership after one of football's more unlikely success stories.
		Those Latics fans who were at Spotland 10 years ago - and, frankly, there were not many - will know more than anyone how extraordinary their ascent has been.
		Back then, even the most optimistic of supporters would not have dreamt that trips to the likes of Rochdale, Carlisle and Altrincham would be replaced by visits to Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea.

		The 4-3-3 formation looked very organised in the first half all the Spotland crowd were treated to some good link up play from the 3 forwards.
		They were eventually knocked out by Wolves, if they have any dreams off another memorable run like that they had to beat Oxford at home today to progress to the next round.
		Already the fans, the media and the bookmakers were all writing rochdale off as relegation bankers, Steve Parkin had a point to prove.

		I've watched Dale at Spotland loads of times, i've also followed them to Macclesfield, Halifax, Huddersfield, Blackburn and as far as Plymouth.
		Stood in the Sandy many a time, sat in the family stand and the boxes and was a regular in the 2000/01 season at the back of the WMG when fixtures allowed me to go to both Latics and Dale.
		The fact where i've lived has always been far easier to get to BP than Spotland also plays a huge part of it.

		Hello Eileen, I lived at the top of the Brow when I was a kid in the 40's/50's and I don't remember a pub on the Brow.
		For your info, Spotland Bridge is an area where five roads meet; Spotland Rd, Rooley Moor Rd, Edenfield Rd, Mellor St and Bridgefold Rd. How was that for a memory test.
		There was in fact at least four pubs on the area of Spotland Road to which he refers and there still are at least two to my knowledge - however - you would need to go back to the old history of the area which I believe might be available through 'Touchstones' in the Library.
