Rochdale chairman Chris Dunphy has praised his side for seeing off Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup third round, despite the League One outfit being "down to the bare bones".
The Dale beat Stuart Pearce's charges 1-0 at Spotland on Saturday, Peter Vincenti's first-half penalty knocking the two-time European Cup winners out of the competition.
Dunphy told BBC Sport after the game: "[It was] fantastic! A great game of football and the win was thoroughly deserved.
"A few young players were out there and they all stepped up for the football club. Because of illness and injuries we were down to the bare bones, but they all delivered.
"As the chairman, most of the time it's hard work but today's the sort of game to enjoy. We will enjoy this tonight - it's two years in a row now that we've reached the fourth round of the FA Cup."
Rochdale are now in the draw for the fourth round of the competition.
