Rochdale Hornets will host Oldham, for the Law Cup, on January 21 2024
Rochdale Hornets will host local rival Oldham for the Law Cup on January 21 2024 as part of preparations for the 2024 Betfred League One campaign.
The Law Cup is a traditional pre-season friendly fixture that dates back as far as 1921. Rochdale MP A J Law, a local mill-owner, put up the cup for a pre-season game which would raise money for hospitals in the two towns. Initially, it was known as the Infirmaries Cup, but with the arrival of the NHS just after the second world war it was decided to change the name to that of the donor.
A sizeable crowd is anticipated with the best post-war attendance being 11,653 in 1952. In the last 50 years however the biggest crowd was 3,097 at Spotland on January 1st, 1998.
