Breaking News! FA Cup Fourth Qualifying Round draw made!

Nine of our clubs had interest in the Emirates FA Cup Fourth Qualifying Round Draw, broadcast live on Talksport 2 this lunchtime. Burgess Hill Town, Heybridge Swifts, Haringey Borough, Margate, Leatherhead, Enfield Town and Folkestone Invicta all won their Third Qualifying Round ties on Saturday, whilst Billericay Town and Harlow Town face replays this week. Here is the outcome!

Burgess Hill Town’s reward for defeating Wealdstone and their Raider on Saturday is a home draw against National League South Dartford. This will be a familiar fixture for Hillians fans, as they faced Dartford at Princes Park the last time they got to this stage, losing 3-1, before drawing the Darts again in the FA trophy, losing 2-1 at the Green Elephants Stadium. They’ll be hoping it’s third time lucky!

Heybridge Swifts, who managed two FA Cup wins against higher ranked opposition last week, are rewarded with a trip to Haringey Borough- fifth versus sixth in our North Division. Another Bostik v Bostik tie will take place at Hartsdown Park, where Margate will face Leatherhead. When the sides met in the League last week Gate left Fetcham Grove as 2-0 winners, so Sammy Moore’s side will look for some early revenge.

Enfield Town’s reward for inflicting a comprehensive defeat on South Division Phoenix Sports is a trip to Maidstone United, currently sitting in fifth place in the National League and unbeaten at their Gallagher Stadium.

Folkestone Invicta, who have only got to the First Round Proper on one previous occasion, will attempt to at least equal that feet when they travel to Slough Town, conquerors of Dulwich Hamlet in the Second Qualifying Round.

Harlow Town and Billericay Town both face replays this week, but if victorious face ties against Ebsfleet United and Brackley Town respectively.
