first round proper

The Exiles will face Walsall in the First Round of the FA Cup.

The FA Cup First Round Draw took place earlier this evening on BBC Two.  County were allocated ball 29 and were drawn at home against EFL League One side Walsall FC.

The match will take place on the weekend of the 4th/5th November and will be played at Rodney Parade.

Last Season, County's FA Cup run took them to a second-round play off against Plymouth Argyle.  A penalty in extra-time cost the Exiles a dream trip to Anfield in the third round.

Further details of the match will be released during the course of this week.
