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.
