FA Cup 20-21

Post by sussexdiamond »

4 clubs from our league will be required to play in the preliminary round on 12th Sept. The first qualifying round will be on Tuesday 22nd Sept. The Trophy first qual round is on 26th Sept. So we could have rather more cup ties than league games in the first month of the season.

The obvious answer to that is 50/50 but we all know we’ll get an away draw :hmmm: :hmmm:

It's good we don't have to do/go through Preliminary round (usually the promoted sides/teams have to do that)

Agree it would be nice for a home tie, have to wait and see.
