This is how fans reacted to the 24/25 FA Cup Fourth Qualifying Round draw…

@mattyb16_BFC: These away draws for bury getting a bit of a joke now isn’t it? #facup #buryfc

@JakeWaddo_: Love how when doing the draw they’re giving a full fact file about each club yet when it comes to 2 time FA Cup Winning Bury FC who have just knocked out a team 3 divisions above it’s just absolute silence. Cheers talksport 😂 #buryfc. Also, has any club in the history of time ever had 6 consecutive away ties in the FA Cup?? Got to be some sort of horrific record 😂 #buryfc

@NorthantsLegend: What a horrible draw for @KTFCOfficial! No benefits whatsoever! Please stop @talkSPORT ruining my FA Cup weekends!!!!!!! From Cyprus to Pudsey next weekend 😞

@ChrisGWatts85: Anyone ever had 6 straight away games in the FA Cup before? 😂 @EmiratesFACup

@Tommy_Oldham1: Halifax at home not the tie we wanted but a chance to finally end this winless hoodoo we have against them. #oafc #facup

@simo180_: FA Cup draw. Not a very popular opinion. But I want a nice easy home tie. Get into the cup proper. Easier games the better, get as far into the cup as poss and let the club earn, get a big away day in round 2 or 3. Up the shots!!

@MANapier23: @BiggleswadeFc1 v York City must be on the television, incredible draw for them 👏

@niners_dave: 2nd QR Truro City v Brackley Town 4th QR Hartlepool United v Brackley Town🤦and Biggleswade in the ‘north’ of England despite being further south than both Lowestoft & Gorleston who are in the southern section

@01Jamin: I was hoping we’d be involved in an FA Cup giant killing this season… Now I’m not so sure #YCFC #FACup 🔴🔵

@LeefroMilch: If Hednesford can progress through their fa cup replay a home tie against Gateshead is a good tough tie.
