Newcastle United have been handed a potential banana skin of a draw in round three of the FA Cup.
The Magpies must wait for the outcome of Rochdale's trip to National League North side Boston United next Tuesday before making arrangements for third round day.
The potential to face non-league opponents, however, is there for all to see after the Pilgrims held Rochdale to a goal-less stalemate this weekend.
United infamously crashed out to Hereford in 1972 in round three with reruns of Ronnie Radford's goal certain to be beamed out no matter who Newcastle play this season.
Rochdale would also fancy their chances after already running Manchester United close in the League Cup this season when they held the Red Devils to a draw before crashing out on penalties.
All third round ties will be played on the weekend of Saturday 4th January 2020.
Boston manager Craig Elliott spoke after the draw at the Etihad Stadium this evening, he told BBC Sport's Mark Chapman: "It is a massive incentive for both teams.
"We have a big obstacle to come to beat Rochdale but the incentive is there for both teams.
"It is mouth-watering to think we could have a Premier League team at York Street.
"We need to look forward to the Rochdale game now."
Rochdale's Spotland has a capacity of 10,249 while Boston's ground has a capacity of just 6,643.
