Here's an FA Cup teaser to try to solve before the answer appears in the preview for the game against Cambridge City.

The Diamonds are one of three teams still in the competition who have an unbeaten record in the FA Cup - can you name the other two?

I'd be interested to see which two you have, since one of mine now appears to have played in it before - so I'm down to only one other team.

I concur with Formic, there is only one other.

Guernsey is correct. They've announced that they are having to play their home tie against Dover in Sussex, as they groundshare with a Rugby club that has first call on their ground that day. They would have had a big crowd - with the revenue shared with Dover, but Dover weren't happy with the alternatives suggested.

You would think there would be a bit of give and take amongst Guernsey Rugby Club and the Football Club. The RFC must know how important the game is to the Football Club, but they go ahead with their game against Old Elthamians refusing to move it - even by a couple of hours. They are not exactly having a good season themselves. Surely they could have just reversed their fixture or kicked off a couple of hours later and let the football club have their home supporters witness the most important game in the club's history.
