:scarf: Very happy with that, yes United or Liverpool would of been good, but a home draw and good chance of progression whats not to be cheering about!!!

Now lets hope the town gets behind the Club!!!

Yeh, should be a good turnout at least. We'll show Carlisle how to beat them.

A good omen. Last time we played Rochdale in the Cup we got promoted!

Could've been better.....much better!

Not the glamour tie we all wanted but I suppose there's a chance of progressing.

Sat here with the wife and youngest Daughter telling them we COULD get Man Utd, Man City or Liverpool.....some of the biggest clubs in world football - wife gets up and walks off, not even sure if she's ever heard of Rochdale.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

We've done and failed at the 3rd round twice in the last 10 years, so this could potentially be 3rd time lucky. A Friday night fixture at home to suit the bbc live coverage would be fantastic
