Trophy draw made - Hereford or Hampton away

If Hereford United overcome Hampton Borough in the FA Trophy fourth round, they will face an away tie to the winners of the Chester City vs Solihull Borough match.

If Hereford and Conference rivals Chester progress, they will play at the Deva Stadium in the Trophy but if both are eliminated, the two will compete in a league match at Edgar Street. Solihull play in the Dr. Martens League Western Division, and are currently fourth. Chester and Solihull drew 0-0 on Saturday, and replay at Damson Park tomorrow night.

The game will be played on Saturday 23rd February, along with the other fifth round ties. The draw in full is:
1 Barnet or Scarborough vs Morecambe
2 Gravesend & Northfleet or Hendon vs Mangotsfield United or Stalybridge Celtic
3 Margate vs North Ferriby United or Braintree Town
4 Stevenage Borough vs Forest Green Rovers
5 Yeovil Town or Doncaster Rovers vs Canvey Island
6 Farnborough Town or Burton Albion vs Woking
7 Chester City or Solihull Borough vs Hereford United or Hampton & Richmond Borough
8 Northwich Victoria vs Telford United

Meanwhile, ex-Hereford and Swindon defender Gareth Davies looks set to join Chippenham Town of the Dr. Martens Western Division.

He quit professional football with a knee injury last month, but the 28-year-old is likely to run the academy and trained with the first team on Thursday night.
