IT'S TAMWORTH!

TOWN have been drawn at Tamworth at the FA Cup fourth qualifying round, where they lost just a month ago in the corresponding BSP league game. The Mariners have reached at least the first round of the FA Cup every year since 1882, when they lost 9-1 to Phoenix Bessemer - still their worst result in the competition!

Last year Grimsby lost at home to Bath City in the First Round, who at the time were two divisions below then, but now are just 12 places in the Conference. Town have won just two FA Cup ties this century, out of 18 games. The last time they won away in the FA Cup was in 1997 at Chesterfield.

The full draw is as follows:

Lincoln Moorlands Railway/Mossley v Darlington
Sheffield/Frickley Athletic v Radcliffe Olympic/Tipton Town
Guiseley v Redditch United
Fleetwood Town v Buxton/AFC Telford United
