Glossop North End v Workington attracted a crowd of 368 at the weekend.

Pools will have some sort of clue at what to expect next month having overcome South Shields, just, in the FA Cup last month at Mariners Park, the underdogs pushing them all the way before goals by Devante Rodney and Nicky Deverdics took them through.

Ties in the first round will take place on Saturday December 16, with winning clubs collecting £6,000 in prize money.

The Trophy Final will be held at Wembley Stadium, along with the Buildbase FA Vase Final, on Non-League Finals Day on Sunday, May 20.
