Wed, 28 Oct 12:54:16 2009

Rotherham's FA Cup first-round tie against Wealdstone will take place on Sunday November 8 with a 3pm kick-off, it has been announced.

The Millers, who have not won a game in the famous competition since they beat Southampton at Millmoor in 2002, were handed the tricky trip to the Isthmian League Premier Division side when the draw was made on Sunday.

A Wealdstone club statement read: "Please accept our apologies for the delay in announcing our plans for the FA Cup first round match against Rotherham United.

"In this current day and age, a non-league team drawn at home to league opposition in the FA Cup are required to stage a meeting with the police, FA representative, relevant council official and of course contact has to be made with the opposition."

The tie will take place at the Grosvenor Vale ground.
