Hill was appointed Rochdale manager in January 2007

Keith Hill has targeted more January signings into Spotland as he looks to establish the club in League One.

The 41-year-old overhauled the squad over the summer making eight permanent signings and added six loan deals.

He told BBC Radio Manchester: "You're always looking to build on the foundation that's got us here.

"We're not a League One team or football club just yet. The players that we've bought through are predominantly or have been League Two."

Rochdale have faired well since the step-up a division and are currently ninth in the league following Saturday's 3-2 win over Dagenham and Redbridge.

Despite the impressive start Hill wants to add more players adding: "The players who can become League One players we want to retain but we've got to blend that in with League One experience.

"Our knowledge of League One is improving , and our knowledge of players is improving so we know what type of calibre player we want to recruit to make us more successful.
