Altrincham (H) Review and Rochdale (A) Preview - Routine win for Blues ahead of trip to high-flying Rochdale - Season 25/26, Episode 31

A routine win for United at Brunton Park ahead of a tricky run of fixtures - and an even bigger positive, Charlie Wyke back on the pitch after almost 16 months out!

It was pretty straight forward for the Blues against Alty last weekend, but with Rochdale, Scunthorpe and Forest Green all coming up in the space of 8 days, are they ready to face a potentially season-defining week of fixtures? We look ahead to the first of those fixtures at Spotland this weekend.

Note - apologies, we had some technical issues early in the episode recording, but these should be ironed out now!
