Last updated : 30 October 2011 By C. Morris

SheffieldWednesday have been handed a potential banana skin in the draw for the 1st round proper of the F.A. Cup. 

The Owls will travel to League Two side Morecambe, who have made a very good start to the season. The Shrimps are currently in 3rd place in League Two and they already have one notable South Yorkshire scalp to their name this season having defeated Championship side Barnsley in the 1st round of the Carling Cup.

Morecambe moved into their new Globe Arena ground for the start of the 2010/11 season and with a capacity of around 6,500 Owls fans will be eager to snap up the away allocation that will be provided for the clubs first ever visit to the stadium.

The tie will take place during the weekend commencing 12th November.
