WARRINGTON Town and Warrington Rylands have discovered their opponents for the first round of the FA Trophy.

Yellows have been paired with old foes South Shields, with the sides to meet at Cantilever Park as a result of today’s draw.

The sides have met in the last two runnings of the Northern Premier League Premier Division play-offs, with Town winning memorably on both occasions on Tyneside but the Mariners completed a home-and-away league double over Town last season.

Blues won 2-0 at Holt House before thrashing the Lancashire side 6-0 at Gorsey Lane.
