I find www.thefa.com very useful myself ;)

3rd qualifying round is due to be played on Oct 9th so the draw will be made for the 4th qualifying round a couple of days after that (usually, but not always, on the following Monday). The 4th qualifying round is due to be played on the weekend of 23rd/24th Oct.

Hope that helps DW :)

Would have thought that obvious really, amazing the lack of determination to look for information that some people have. Frustrates me no end the "you do it for me" approach that has crept into modern day thinking.

Sorry for mini rant but its my current bug bear. :evil:

Yep - 7 out of the top 10 have either a link on the landing page to the actual draw dates or to the FA.com site which was the logical place to look. It just takes a wee bit of investigating I find.

I'm not looking for the dates of the rounds.. I'm looking for the dates when the draw is made..

4th qualifying round dates as per DF above post. Actual draw date is still TBC - only the later rounds (ie 3rd round onwards get confirmed dates but even these not set yet.

As a rule of thumb (according to FA.com if you read through some of the articles and rules) the draw for the next round is not made until the final initial fixture of the previous round has been made. (that way the draws still happen even if replays to be played)
