Who Is in the Cup?
Entering the bag to be pulled out in the upcoming FA Cup draw are Premier League and Championship clubs.
Also in the competition are League Two side Harrogate Town after they defeated League One’s Portsmouth; Mansfield Town’s 3-2 win over Doncaster Rovers also means they will be in the hat for the Third Round.
A 0-0 draw for Barrow at Ipswich Town means they will both be in the draw but require a replay to decide the tie.
