CHELMSFORD City have been handed a trip to League Two side Wycombe Wanderers in the second round of the FA Cup.

The injury-hit Blue Square South side held on for a 3-2 win over lower-level non-league side Hendon at Melbourne Stadium yesterday after having keeper James Pullen sent off just before half-time.

It is the first time since 1986 the Essex club has been in the second round of the FA Cup.

Wycombe, relegated from League One last season, just about secured their progress yesterday with a winner deep into injury-time at non-league side Hayes & Yeading.

The Chairboys – who play their home games at the 10,000 capacity Adams Park – are currently fourth in League Two.

Elsewhere, Colchester United will host non-league side Swindon Supermarine in round two following their 4-3 victory over Bradford City.

Blue Square Premier side Cambridge United held League One side Huddersfield to a 0-0 draw at The Abbey Stadium yesterday. Victory in the replay would see them host the winners of Southend United or Macclesfield Town in round two.

Second round ties will be played on the weekend of November 27/28, with Premier League and Championship clubs entering the competition at the third round stage.
