GRIMSBY face either Chesterfield or Billericay away in the FA Cup Second Round. The tie against a non-league side is the thing that stands in the way of being in the urn for the FA Cup Third Round draw alongside the biggest football clubs in the country.
Chesterfield have struggled again in the National League this season after suffering two consecutive relegations. Billericay head the National League South and have spent heavily over the summer and include several players with National League or Football League experience in their squads.
It represents a good opportunity for Town to give their supporters something to cheer after a disappointing league campaign to date.
The full draw is as follows:
The second round is scheduled to take place over the weekend of Friday 30 November and each winning club will receive £54,000 from The FA prize fund.
