Southend or Telford face Altrincham or Luton at home in Cup Second Round

Personally, if we get past Telford, and that's not a gimme, I'd take Luton by the sound of it!

Luton Town 0 Altrincham 0

Non-league Altrincham earned an FA Cup first-round replay with struggling League Two side Luton after a battling goalless draw at Kenilworth Road.

The hosts went close early on when Wayne Andrews blazed over, but thereafter it was all Altrincham.

Home keeper Conrad Logan saved from Chris Senior and Colin Little after both got themselves free in the box.

And it could have been even better for the visitors had Senior's strike on the hour not been ruled out for offside.
