FA Cup second-round draw - as it happened

Fifty-two teams learned their FA Cup second-round fate when the draw took place at the National Football Museum on Monday night.

Several non-league sides were in the draw, with Blyth Spartans' trip to nearby Hartlepool United the pick of the ties.

See how the draw panned out in our live coverage below.

7.30pmAnyway, time for us to say goodbye. Thanks for joining us. A reminder that the second round will take place next month over the weekend of December 5-7 and we'll be all over it here on SM.
