FA Cup Third Round Draw, from 7 onwards.

[Letters]

Liverpool v Accrington Stanley is genuinely funny.

Who are they?

Thought they were going to stop big clubs playing each other in the early rounds (of is another competition I'm thinking of) or are Manure not considered a big club anymore?

I hadn't heard that and I hope they never do anything like that. Part of the charm of the FA Cup is the completely open draw which can throw up big ties like ours or potential for giant-killings like Liverpool's tie.

FFS couldn't they have drawn the teams the other way round?

I think the League Cup does that i.e. teams that play in Europe getting in at later stages or something like that.

Would be against the FA cup's nature to stop big teams from meeting each other though.
