FA Cup Second Qualifying Round draw

12:09, 16 September 2013

Folkestone Invicta will travel to Ebbsfleet United in the second qualifying round of the FA Cup.

Neil Cugley's side beat Eastbourne United 2-0 on Saturday and their reward is a game against the Skrill South side at Stonebridge Road.

That is one of two all-Kent affairs thrown up by Monday's draw.

Ryman League Premier Division side Thamesmead Town have never been beyond this stage of the FA Cup but they will fancy their chances after being drawn at home to Sittingbourne.

It is 16 years since the Brickies, of Ryman League Division 1 South, have gone past the second qualifying round.

Meanwhile, Dover Athletic must fly to the Channel Islands after being drawn away to Guernsey. The Green Lions are competing in the competition for the first time in their short history.

Tonbridge Angels have been drawn away to Skrill South rivals Hayes & Yeading United, while Bromley will host Ryman South outfit Burgess Hill.

Margate and Dulwich Hamlet, who both play in the Ryman Premier, will meet at Hartsdown Park.

The county's remaining cup survivors have been handed away draws.

Faversham Town - who have not reached this stage of the competition since 1991 - will go to South Park or Horsham, while Chatham Town - in the second qualifying round for the first time in 18 years - are away to Whyteleafe of the Southern Counties East League.

And Maidstone United will start as favourites when they head to Merstham.

The ties will be played on the weekend of September 28.
