FA Cup: Wrexham away to Blyth Spartans, Merthyr host Folkestone

  • Published

Wrexham will be away to National League North side Blyth Spartans in the FA Cup fourth qualifying round.

The sides famously met in the competition in 1978 when non-league Spartans took then Third Division Wrexham to a fifth-round replay.

Graham Whittle and Dixie McNeil secured a 2-1 win for Wrexham in the replay at Newcastle United's St James' Park.

Merthyr Town, who secured a late win at Gloucester in the third qualifying round, will host Folkestone Invicta.

Ties will be played on the weekend of 15-16 October.
