Mansfield Town drawn in FA Cup fifth round

We have been drawn against Mansfield Town in the fifth round of the FA Cup.

After we beat Wigan Athletic 4-0 in the fourth round on Sunday, we will face the Stags next in the competition, with the tie to take place at Field Mill.

It will be just the second-ever meeting between the teams, with our last tie coming nearly 100 years ago in 1929 when we won 2-0 in the FA Cup.

The League One side beat Harrogate Town, Accrington Stanley, Sheffield United and Burnley to get this far, coming from behind to knock out the Clarets 2-1 at Turf Moor on the weekend, and secure their place in the fifth round for the first time in over half a century.
