With attention turning to today's draw - which will be broadcast live on Talksport 2 from 3.15pm, Elliott reveals the tie he would love the most - a trip to his home town club Pontefract Collieries.

"I want Pont Collieries away me, so I can go out for 5.30pm," said Elliott, who guided the Pilgrims to the FA Cup's second round in 2019.

"But we'd also have anyone at home. We'd take anything that comes really, we just want to try to do well in the competition."

Northern Premier League Division One side Pontefract beat Handsworth Parramore 6-0 in the cup at the weekend.
