IT'S ROCHDALE AT HOME IN CUP
Posted on: Tue 28 Oct 2008
Barnet drew League 2 rivals Rochdale at Underhill in the first round proper of The FA Cup, sponsored by E.ON, leaving Paul Fairclough to comment:"I've been saying 'anyone at home' and this gives us a chance against someone we know and I am more than happy with that.
"There's a lot of luck attached to a Cup run ... there were a few draws I was happy to miss".
The tie will be played on Saturday, November 8. The Bees lost 3-1 at Rochdale in the third game of the season after taking the lead through Adam Birchall, although Joe Tabiri had a great chance to make it two, but shot into the side netting from close range and it could have been a different story.
Last season's League 2 fixture at Underhill ended 0-0.
