Town to travel to non-league Dartford in FA Cup first round
SWINDON Town will travel to non-league team Dartford in the first round of the FA Cup following this evening’s draw.
David Flitcroft’s side will visit the Darts, of National League South, at Princes Park on the weekend of November 4.
Tony Burman’s troops currently sit fourth in their division, having lost just two league games this season.
The match will be just the second meeting between the two teams, with Town having triumphed 1-0 the only other time the pair met, that also coming in the FA Cup back in 1933.
Town will make the near 250-mile round trip to Kent seeking a first victory in the FA Cup since January 2012, having lost in the first round of the competition in each of the last five seasons.
