The Priestfield legend is now in charge at Vanarama Conference Premier side Forest Green Rovers, who will travel to the winners of Tuesday's replay between Welling United and Ebbsfleet United, if his side win at Didcot Town the same night.

The two teams drew 2-2 in Gloucestershire at the weekend.

The game will be Jamie Day's first in charge of the Stonebridge Road club, having left Welling last week. He watched the 1-1 draw from the stands on Saturday, and took over officially on Monday.

The county's other three representatives still left in the last-32 have all be drawn away from home.

Dover travel to either Weymouth or Havant & Waterlooville, Bromley go to Torquay United and Dartford go to Burgess Hill in a repeat of their FA Cup meeting at Princes Park earlier this season.

The Sussex side produced one of the shocks of the first round, by winning at Dartford's rivals Aldershot at the weekend.

The ties will be played over the weekend of January 10.

The winners each receive £6000.
