So... we're about one week away from the draw for the first round proper, many teams' will have started the long path to wembley already. With the 4th qualifying round on saturday, we will start to see the formation for the first round. This is the round were the Blue Square Premier teams will come into play, and many have been pitted against each other (full draw here). Tie of the round is probably Kidderminster York or Crawley vs. York.

But, already at this early stage, there is potential for huge upsets, with level 9 team Poole Town, taking on BSP minnows Hayes and Yeading Utd. (In a game in which I am going!)

So, from this round to the final, here it is...

The greatest domestic cup competition in Europe.

pleased Leeds don't have to enter into the first round anymore, slightly decreases the chances of the 'Histon incident' (H)

Well I hope we (hayes) can get through the potential banana skin of Poole (away) we will be in the first round for the first time in ages! Then we get the big boys at Church Road!

£12,500 for the winners in the 4th Qual. which will do wonders for out club, then the additional funds if we get a nice 1st round draw.

Nah mate, that was before the merger, which was Yeading. The other team which I didn't really follow. That game actually got moved to Loftus Road, as yeadings ground was too small.

On the topic of small grounds, this is the one I will be visiting on saturday with the red army!!

The year ends in 1; the trophy is ours.

Just to clarify, I am referring to the 2010/2011 season.

To help people like Jack understand.
