Without investment, the fan-owned club will be forced into liquidation after years of “perilous” finances.

Independent candidate Dave Tully has called out for Rochdale football club to be saved as it faces closure and claimed: "Its part of our way of life."

Without investment, the fan-owned club will be forced into liquidation after years of “perilous” finances.

Speaking to GB News he said: "I believe that we could do with between 2 and 3 million pounds of investment. As a season ticket holder along with my two sons, that was one of my drives to look after the club which I feel is part of our way of life in the town and it's got a lot of heritage and a lot of people.

"I mean we're only a small supported club but there's 2000 very loyal fans which is it's a part of their way of life and I feel very strongly that it needs to survive."
