Some priceless trivia gems are also included. There is the day that Dale’s FA Cup progress was almost halted by a tree The fund-raising campaign known as the Shilling Club which raised just that – one single shilling! Did you know that during the 1940s Dale fielded one of the few professional footballers to have played in spectacles? And would anyone believe that early stalwart Dave Parkes’ pre-match routine was to down a couple of pints in a local pub! This and more makes it a must for any Rochdale fan.
