Hartlepool at home in R2 of the FA Cup is the glittering prize awaiting the winners of the Leeds United v Hereford replay.

Leeds are still in the FA Cup and if they manage to overcome Hereford in tomorrow weeks' replay, they will face Hartlepool at Elland Road in Round Two.

The draw was made yesterday teatime (Sunday) and Leeds will be pleased that they have the incentive of a home-tie to play for, providing of course they overcome Hereford.

The Bulls travel to Elland Road on Tuesday November 20th. According to the official Leeds United website, the visitors will be allocated the entire South Stand. Tickets are now on sale, visit http://www.leedsunited.com/ for more details.

It is proving to be a busy month for Dennis Wise's men. After scraping a 0-0 draw at Edgar Street on Friday, the Leeds boss bemoaned the amount of travelling the whites' have endured in the past week or so.

A week last Saturday, they were up in Carlisle, followed by a trip to Bournemouth 72 hours later and then down to Hereford on Friday night! And there is no respite on the horizon, although Leeds next three matches are at home!

Tomorrow (Tuesday), Leeds entertain Bury in the JPT Northern quarter-final, on Saturday one of Wise's ex-clubs Swindon visit Elland Road, then of course come Hereford the following Tuesday night.  

Thereafter, Leeds do get an extra day off. The visit to Cheltenham has been put back to Sunday November 25th and this was only done so it didn't clash with the switching-on of the Christmas lights in the Gloucestershire town!

The 2nd round of the FA Cup will take place over the weekend of December 1st.
