Lowestoft and Ramsgate were the only two home draws. Based on the 64 teams in the southern half of the 1st qualifying round draw, the odds of getting one of 21/23 teams was always roughly one in three, so it is almost one in six to be drawn away to a team from the same division in any season. In five straight seasons this statistic is freakish.

By the way, in the season Gary Mac returned we started at home to a team from Ryman One South, AFC Wimbledon (who had 13 former Hendon people on the pitch and bench), before away games at Taunton and Slough.
