Plus the FA Trophy for conference teams. Don't think any FA Vase winners would get far enough up the pyramid to count.

Ah, but by my logic the FA trophy winners would have to also be the team gaining automatic promotion from the confrence making league team number 17. The Vase is only for teams step 5 (Sussex County) and below therefore not relevant to this discussion

Remember those of you naming Spurs......"Don't count your chickens etc......" Don't tempt fate!!!

Spurs . . . are cockerels, innit?

Nope I saw Leeds lose the League One play off to the might of Doncaster. Oh how we laughed.

Still waiting to go to the new Wembley with the Albion ? Should we happen to play Spurs in the league there any time in the future - how many tickets would we get ??

Everton reached the FA Cup final in 2009 and lost to Chelsea. And lost the SF last season.

That's a great stat that highlights how not special playing at Wembley has become. Almost everyone has done it!

It's all about the $$$.

indeed it has turned full circle

now if you haven't played at wembley it's a good thing

i.e.

don't take the FA Cup seriously

don't need the play offs for promotion

Been to Wembly for the Rugby challenge cup final drinking in the seats. Dirty Leeds were one of the teams
