Been released today www.thefa.com/competitions/thefacup/round-datesNo huge surprises for rounds 1&2 (as these fall on Saturdays we don't have fixtures). Round 5 is on a Wednesday though. Games that clash are Oldham away (3rd round) and Bristol Rovers home (4th round) The 20 or so teams from step 4 who will take part in the Extra Prelim stage have also been drawn. They include Tooting and Staines, who only 10 or so years ago were league opponents. To reach the round we come in at, they will have to win 6 FA Cup games. To put that into context, if we won 6 FA Cup games this season, we'd be in the quarter finals.

Good to see, on the Prize Fund page, that they're giving losing clubs , up to and including the Fourth Qualifying Round , payments for getting to the relevant stage of the Competition

I'm assuming it's meant to be 122,500, surely.

Those bloody NL clubs spoil it for everyone ππΌββοΈ
