ROCHDALE will be in the full media glare on the first day of the 2003/04 season when they entertain league newcomers Yeovil.

Alan Buckley, the new boss at Spotland, will then lead his new charges to Bristol Rovers as the club look to put a disappointing last campaign behind them.

September 16 will be a date to mark down, with the division’s giants Huddersfield visiting, while two weeks later Dale will visit Macc’s Moss Rose ground.

The Christmas program sees Dale at Mansfield on Boxing Day and at home to York on the 28th.

And they finish the season with a home tie against Southend followed by a final day trip to Oxford.
