FA Cup draw: away tie for Halifax Town
FC HALIFAX Town's FA Cup adventure will begin in the north-east after they were drawn to play the winners of the West Auckland/Brandon United clash in the preliminary round on August 29.

The early rounds of the FA Carlsberg Trophy have also been drawn with Halifax facing a trip to familiar foes in Trafford in the preliminary round on October 3
Should they get through that match they play host to Staffordshire-based Romulus in the first qualifying round which is due to be played on October 17.
