Yeah sorry my mistake.

The competition is a knockout tournament with pairings drawn at random. However, the qualifying round draws and the 1st Round proper draw are regionalised to reduce teams' travel costs

We also played Bognor Regis Town and St Albans City but not at this stage.

Bognor Regis still talk about Amond's penalty!

Players last time were selfish and saw it as a big thing. It's nothing to us, I was embarassed to be in it last time and couldn't care less when losing two finals at Wembley. It's all about the league and getting back to the EFL. `

Looking at the number of red crosses inot a popular opinion personally I will only Watch a game of football in which I’m interested in the result.
I went to Wembley to see these finals as well  and truly did not give a toss if we won or lost . I will not go this time. I would not go to the vase games if they were free!

If we had fallen so far to be in the FA Vase I doubt many would be watching.

To be fair I don't mind the trophy, there seems to be an element of the support who think it's beneath us but if it means that some clubs could come to us and see it as a "bid day out" and we get to use the squad like we did versus Bromsgrove then I don't think it's a bad thing.

Yes it is. The draw is regionalised.

Oh and bizarrely Needham Market are the most northern club in the Southern Section of the draw.

Just to clarify...

THE DRAW IS REGIONALISED.

The Grimsby Telegraph is wrong. I imagine their confusion is because until 2019/20 season the last 64 was called Round 1 and that was the final regionalised round. Last season the rounds were renumbered so that the last 64 was called Round 3 and it was/is still regionalised.

I have No interest at all in the Trophy or going to a quarter filled Wembley to see it , the only thing that matters now is promotion.
If Hurst can manage to get to the final by playing the reserves then fair play but none of our first team players should be playing in these games

The NL clubs don't take the FA Trophy seriously anymore. There's only been 1 finalist from step 5 in the last 2 seasons. And last season was won by an Isthmian Premier league side.

Will County play their first team or rest players to concentrate on the league?  Are their reserves and youth players better than ours?

Doubt either team will play their first eleven.

I don’t think it would be a disaster to exit this competition early, personally.

NO, we want promotion back to the EFL. The one and only priority for me.

To be honest I'm not too bothered about this cup would rather like many we concentrate on the league. I'll be going the game hopefully as its quiet local for me.


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

Record number of own goals, players not feigning injury and refusing to go down when touched, goal keepers rushing to take goal kicks when 1:0 up, players not trying to score when there’s a suspicion of offside. And players booked for dissent - when the ref DOESN’T give a decision in favour of the opposition.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I despised the competition last time around because it was so disruptive. Now they have got rid of replays it's less of an issue. Yes, the league is a priority, but it's scheduled to take place on Saturdays so is not the season killer it once was with all those midweek replays which wiped out league games.

Could be a few own goals, penalties and penalty misses in this one.
