F.A. Umbro Trophy
The winner of Wednesday night's game will play Morecambe away.
Telford travel down to Essex in arguably the biggest clash drawn out of the bag in this morning’s F.A. Umbro Trophy 4th round draw at the F.A.’s Soho Square headquarters. The two sides last met 3 days before Christmas and Telford, currently six places behind their Conference rivals, romped away with an emphatic 5-1 victory at Victoria Road. Dagenham will be out to avenge that defeat. Yeovil are twinned with Doncaster and Scarborough travel to Barnet in the only other certain all Conference affairs. An interesting trip also awaits Bashley, currently bottom of the Dr Marten’s Eastern Divison, as they attempt to advance past Stevenage two divisions above.

1 Morecambe v Southport or Gresley Rovers
