WESTON will be among 40 teams in the hat for the FA Cup second round draw at St George’s Park tonight (Monday).
The postponement of the Seagulls’ tie with Doncaster Rovers means they will go into their re-arranged match on November 18 knowing their opponents should they progress, and could be paired with neighbours and League One leaders Bristol City in what would surely be a dream tie for Mickey Bell’s side.
Weston are one of eight teams from outside the top five divisions whose name will be picked in the televised draw tonight, on BBC2 from 7pm, and could still face sides up to two divisions below their own, after Warrington Town’s heroics to get past Exeter City on Friday night.
The Seagulls are again inviting fans to visit the Woodspring Stadium to watch the draw live,
