A worth remembering that a tie in this round will be selected by the BBC for live broadcast coverage, with details of that fixture to be confirmed in due course.

Sadly, we saw an FA Cup Second Qualifying Round match between Bury and Workington marred by racist abuse and an incident with fans fighting outside Gigg Lane.

Both clubs are investigating what happened, with Momodou Touray since taking to social media to say he received racist gestures from those in the away end.

Footage has also emerged of the troubling scenes outside the ground and in the middle of the road.
