Dale Trust to sponsor two players

Date published: 10 July 2013


Following a poll of Dale Trust members, two members of the first team squad at Spotland will be sponsored by the Trust during the 2013-14 season.

There were two polls for Trust members. The first was for the Trust to sponsor an established member of the first team squad. That poll saw Rhys Bennett as the winner.

A Trust spokesman said: "We were delighted that Rhys won this vote given the support that he gave the Trust last season by attending our FIFA13 evening."

The second poll was for one of the first year professionals, and following this poll, Joe Bunney will be sponsored by the Trust during the 2013-4 season.

Bunney made his debut for Dale in the last game of 2012-3, and he rewarded the management straight away with a goal with his first touch in professional football.

The Trust spokesman added: "We would like to thank all Trust members who took part in the vote."
