“You’re looking for one of the big ones to have and it’s as big as they come. You’re looking for Arsenal, Man United, Man City, but they’re right up there with in that bracket of big clubs.

“Hopefully it's a big crowd and a fantastic, traditional stadium. It's a wonderful draw and brings back memories of the cup game years ago, so brilliant.

“We’re delighted and hopefully it will give fans something to get their teeth into over the next few weeks.

“We won’t be thinking about it until after the Lincoln game, but once that’s out the way then we can really have a right go at it.”
