TRURO DRAW CHARLTON IN ROUND ONE

As a reward for beating Hampton and Richmond Borough to qualify for the first round proper of the FA Cup, Truro City have been handed a plum draw with 1947 cup winners Charlton Athletic.

The Addicks, who were playing in the Premier League as recently as 2007, currently play in League One and the tie could yet be destined for live television coverage by either the BBC or BT Sport.

Elsewhere in the draw, Exeter City, Plymouth Argyle and Yeovil Town all received home draws and will play host to Heybridge Swifts, Grimsby Town and Southend United respectively.

All ties will take place over the weekend of November 4th and 5th.
