My Building:Structure:Environment Choice.

From my shortlist of three Environments i decided on using Rochdale AFC's football stadium 'Spotland'. It has become a very important place to me ever since i first attended a Rochdale game.

I was a season ticket holder at Spotland for 8 years and have been through many different emotions watching Rochdale play.
Following Rochdale has taken me all around the country to different football grounds but non of these have quite the same feeling and enjoyment that Spotland has.
The ground has undergone extensive development within the last 15 years and has changed dramatically. The ground is now all seated apart from The Sandy Lane end which is situated behind one of the goals. I had my season ticket in the Pearl Street stand which is also behind the goal, in my opinion the best stand in the ground not only for facilities but also for atmosphere.

Stadium is situated on Willbutts Lane in the Spotland area of Rochdale. Spotland has been the home of Rochdale AFC since 1920 when there was only one stand. The stadium is now shared with the local Rugby club Rochdale Hornets.

I will base my website around the whole stadium rather than just one specific stand. I am going to have information about the stadium, stadium news, a gallery page and also a map of where the stadium is.
