Stags to face non league opposition in FA Cup
MANSFIELD Town have been drawn against Grays Athletic or Lewes in the first round of the FA Cup, sponsored by E.ON.
The Stags will host either the Blue Square Premier side - whom they knocked out of the cup two years ago - or Lewes from the Conference South.

The match will be played at Field Mill over the weekend of 10th/11th November.

Initially there was confusion that the Stags would definitely be playing Grays, with the FA's own website and the BBC reporting that Grays had won the fourth qualifying round tie 2-0.

But the tie finished 1-1 and the replay will be week commencing 5th November.

Mansfield beat Essex side Grays 3-0 in the competition two years ago in front of the Sky TV cameras.
