Rochdale management sign new deals

Rochdale manager Keith Hill and assistant boss Dave Flitcroft have committed their futures to the club by signing new two-year deals.

The management duo have guided the Spotland outfit to their first promotion since 1969 and their commitment ends speculation linking Hill with a move elsewhere.

"I do hope it puts to bed the rumours about us leaving," said Hill, who was due to be out of contract at the end of the season.

"We have committed our future to Rochdale Football Club and we are continually looking towards the development of the football club.

"I'm really happy we've signed and this gives us the opportunity to plan for future."
