It's 27 years since Hereford and Gillingham last met in the FA Cup.
The game was played at Gillingham on November 16th 1996.
GILLINGHAM 1 Hereford United 0 - FA Cup 1st Round (report from Sunday Mirror)
Steve Butler's 25th-minute goal earned Gills a clash against Cardiff in the next round of the Cup - but it was hard-won.
They had plenty of chances to sink Hereford but, unfortunately, most fell to out-of-sorts striker Iffy Onuora.
He had four opportunities but found keeper Andy De Bont hard to beat.
De Bont even saved a Butler penalty - awarded after he floored Onuora in the second half.
That sparked the visitors into all-out attack, with keeper Jim Stannard saving twice before Chris Hargreaves hit the woodwork.
Then in a frantic finish Hereford had appeals for a penalty turned down,
and the Gillingham defenders were forced to hack the ball off the line
with virtually the last kick of the game.
''It's very disappointing to go out of the FA Cup at this stage,'' said United director of football Graham Turner.
''The lads are sure that Dean Smith's shot was over the line and also that we should have had a penalty. The team was lifted by Andy DeBont's penalty save and we could have got at least a replay.''
