The biggest story of the first round was surely eight-tier Warrington Town
beating Exeter City 1-0 on Friday night. They are the lowest-ranked side in the draw.
The ties drawn tonight will be played next month over the weekend of 5-7 December.
Making the draw in Manchester this evening will be former Arsenal defender Martin Keown and Jason Craven, a popular hero in the local community from West End AFC in Denton.

Here we go then, the draw is about to be made. Although there aren't any huge draws to be made in this round, going through to the third round is where the big boys of the Premier League and Championship enter. A favourable draw this evening for a smaller club could lead to a famous day in January's third round.
WE'RE OFF! Keep your eyes peeled for every tie of the 2014-15 FA Cup second round.
Oxford United vs. Tranmere Rovers
Bury vs. Luton Town
Wrexham vs. Stevenage Borough or Maidstone United
Scunthorpe United vs. Worcester City
Colchester United vs. Peterborough United
Wycombe Wanderers vs. York City or AFC Wimbledon
Notts County or Accrington Stanley vs. Yeovil Town
Hartlepool United vs. Blyth Spartans
MK Dons vs. Chesterfield

Crewe Alexandra or Sheffield United vs. Plymouth Argyle
Cheltenham Town vs. Dover Athletic
Cambridge United vs. Mansfield Town or Concord Rangers
Bristol City vs. Basingstoke or AFC Telford

AND THAT'S THE DRAW!
The tie of the round is surely Hartlepool United vs. Blyth Spartans - a tasty North-East clash.
The lowest-ranked side left in the competition, Warrington, will travel to Gateshead. It's not the worst or the best draw, but they certainly stand a chance of reaching the third round and drawing a big boy.
The other smallest sides in the draw were all handed tough away ties, with Worcester going to Scunthorpe United, Chester going to Barnsley and Dover travelling to Cheltenham Town.
Anyway, time for us to say goodbye. Thanks for joining us. A reminder that the second round will take place next month over the weekend of December 5-7 and we'll be all over it here on SM.
