Fa cup weekend!

[Return of the Rev]

ANYONE TAKING IN A FA CUP GAME THIS WEEKEND,POPPING UP TO EPSOM AND EWELL V CROYDON ON SATURDAY! ANYONE ELSE CATCHING THE CUP FEVER

 

[Jollyfield]

I always tend to go to a FA cup game if the Albion are not at home. Went to Ringmer v Corinthian a couple of weeks ago and probably would have gone to see Worthing FC this weekend if Brighton were not playing.

Eastbourne United v Hastings United!

 

[Notters]

Is this another "look at me, I refuse to go to the Amex" thread?

Think I will go to the Amex instead and wait for the 3rd draw.

Indeed it is and we are also being sworn at as well, two for the price of one........

The great british tradition of the FAC starting all the way down the football pyramid in Summer. Don't know if Europe's other league's have a similar cup competition where real minnows can eventually, in theory, meet giants?

Like it when BBC Football Focus follow certain random clubs/ties through all the rounds. Nice to get a breather from PL hype.

i went to the same game nice to see the blues win . currently no manager and went down 8-1 in the last match and could only fiekd 10men ! Merstham this sat could be a cricket score but its a funny old game. Anyhow it was my old man who got the ball in the face and held the game up!
I'll be at the albion sat so no caburn roar lol

Undecided. Have narrowed it down to 3:

Worthing V Guernsey
Eastbourne United V Hastings
Ringmer V Merstham

I'll be drinking in Lewes pre game so Eastbourne would be easiest to get to. But may well be going out in Brighton post game which makes Worthing more appealing. Think I'll only do Ringmer if I'm still in Lewes come 2:30 which isn't out of the question.

Also Shoreham playing at littlehampton.

How many games are the winners this weekend from an appearance in the first round proper?

 

[HawkTheSeagull]

Eastbourne United v Hastings United!

That'll be an interesting game, thats for sure. Eastbourne have had a great start in County 1 after promotion as well, think they will edge it myself.

They had a good FA Vase run last season, if they could get far in the FA Cup it would be brilliant.

Thought about doing this one year, but instead I may just pick and choose what one to go to each round, and take in some decent grounds at (hopefully) a lower ticket cost than league matches.

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

Ascot United still in it so they are my team.
Looking out for my two local teams so that is Plymouth Parkway and Saltash United.
Eastboune v Hastings is interesting as is the Aylesbury derby and two miners welfare clubs playing each other.

A friend of mine tried to do the same last season with his son. They started with Ampthill Town in the extra preliminary round, went to Carlisle a couple of times (including a Tuesday night) and Sunderland, but it all came unstuck at the semi-final stage, which clashed with his son's duke of Edinburgh award assessment. I think they're going to try again this season.

 

[Spun Cuppa]

Might be at Ringmer tomoz if the 'effing bus turns up this time FFS! Plan B is to get an earlier bus and drink lots of beer

Might have to trundle it out

I recommend the Guernsey match there's generally a following and they like a sing up. (check k.o time as they often ko at 1pm to catch the last flight home)
