FA Trophy draw today - teams in the hat, round date and more

The draw for the second round of the FA Trophy will be released at lunchtime - and Hereford will be one of the clubs in the hat.

Published at 1pm, the draw will reveal the 40 ties to be played on Saturday 16 November.

Winners will receive £3,750, while losers get £1,000.

Last year, Hereford beat Isthmian League North side Redbridge 4-1 at Edgar Street in the second round. The Bulls went a goal behind just before the break through James Barlow. But Paul Caddis's half time team talk looked to inspire a second half comeback as they went on to score four goals in the second half, with Ethan Freemantle, Aaron Skinner, Koby Arthur and Tom Pugh on the scoresheet.

The Bulls eventually went on to the fifth round where they were knocked out by Gateshead at Edgar Street.

Step two sides enter at this stage and the draw is expected to be regionalised.
