Despite not having got through yet, Dale were in the hat for the 4th round of the FA Trophy and were drawn at home.
Should Dale get past fellow playoff hopefuls Gateshead in round three, a home tie against either Weston Super Mare or Woking awaits.t
The ties are due to be played on 13th January.
Both Dale's game against Gateshead and the Weston Super Mare v Woking tie were victims of the heavy rain that fell across the country and both games were postponed and will both (fingers crossed) be played tomorrow evening instead.
