Rochdale manager Keith Hill could swing the axe as he looks to halt his side's alarming slide down the League Two table at Bradford.Tuesday's 4-2 home defeat at the hands of Hereford was Dale's third successive loss and Hill looks set to make changes.

Goalkeeper Sam Russell made mistakes in the recent defeats to Lincoln and Peterborough and then conceded four in the midweek horror show.

James Spencer could replace Russell between the posts while several more players are sweating nervously on their places. Defender Rory McArdle and midfielder John Doolan were hauled off at half-time with their side 3-1 down.

Striker Chris Dagnall and right-back Gary Brown remain long-term absentees due to cruciate knee ligament injuries, while Kallum Higginbotham and Nathan Stanton are suspended.
