WELL THE SEASON HAS STARTED ALREADY WITH THE EXTRA PRELIMINARY ROUND THIS WEEKEND

Knowing how much you lot like non league football I thought i'd bore you with it

The first of 13 rounds started on friday with most ties today and a few tomorrow

17 teams making their debut in the FA cup this year including Cheddar unsurprisingly known as the cheesemen they have been going for 125 years but have never played in the Fa Cup :shock: they drew 2-2 away at Bodmin town

The biggest win was in the local derby between Yaxley and Huntingdon Yaxley WINNING 12-0 :shock: =D>

another high scoring game was Flackwell heath vs Baldock town which finished 6-3 to the home side

My favourite tie has to be that between ARDley utd. and TUFFley rangers which finished 3-2 to Ardley bet that was a bruising encounter :-pmsl

Wembley FC won 4-0 against Daventry bet they don't play at the actual stadium though :wink:

and of course the mighty Daniels will be away to Sleaford in the next round after sleaford won 1-0 at fakenham

today for the Daniels was semifinals of the Lincs cup which they won 2-1 against the Tulips having knocked grimsby town out in the quarter finals

well preliminary round today with I believe 152 clubs involved a few thrashings around the place

poor old Thame Utd went down 7-1 at home to North leigh FC, haringey Borough thrashed barkingside 7-2
Redhill went down 6-1 at home to lewes and in the west country Bridgewater went down 6-0 at Home to Plymouth parkway

there were two games going to extra time that finished 8-0 and 9-0 but i wonder if someone wrote the results down wrong at the FA

In the north east billingham Symphonia beat northallerton 6-0

Yaxley drew 4-4 at home to Dereham was the biggest score draw

the biggest shock must be Wisbech going down 4-1 at home to Peterborough Sporting

there were 3 4-3 thrillers

and as for the Daniels safely through 3-0 away at Sleaford

sorry have not been keeping this up to date

1st round qualifying this is where the bulk of the teams in non league come in except the conference quite a few thrashings around the highest number of goals was little Deeping Rangers losing 2-6 to Gresley and the same scoreline at carshalton losing at home to worthing with kings lynn beating Brigg town 6-1 :-o and Ascott having held tonbridge Angels at home went down 7-0 in the replay

In leicestershire little Ashby ivanhoe went down 0-6 to Ilkeston the yorkshire derby between Pontrefact and Tadcaster finished 3-2 to Tadcaster

In the North east Bishop Auckland won -1 against Osset Albion across the pennines Workington had a good 3-0 win against warrington town who did well a couple of seasons ago and the Liverpool Manchester derby between Burscough and Maine road finished 4-3 to the scousers down in London the Metropolitan Police won 3-1 at Hounslow

And down in the West country Hereford of FA CUP giantkilling face won their repaly against romulus 3-0 to keep their hopes alive

and the Daniels well they drew at st neots but won the replay 4-1 which was satisfying as the gingerbreads (Grantham)also drew but lost the replay on a penalty shoot out to chasetown :-getin

so onto the second round qualifying

happy modelling Edwin


AFC Mansfield hey? They used to be a spin off of the football club Mansfield Town, a director and the CEO had a fall out so he went and set up AFC Mansfield. They've made up now and the Director is back in with Mansfield Town FC, he's left the running of AFC Mansfield to Andy Saunders and the manager Rudi Funk, Rudi is a colourful character and a good non league manager.

well it was the third round qualifying today with the biggest drubbing being Ebbsfleet's 7-0 win over Havant and waterloo who have appeared in the first round draw on more than one occasion. Also on the south coast Weymouth thrashed the minnows from Brimscomb and Thrupp 6-0. The biggest home defeat was St Albans who went down 6-0 at home to Worthing.Welling also put 7 past Swindon Supermarine

Herefords dreams of another big cup run ended at Tonbridge as they went down 4-2 to the Angels

Up in the North east Spennymoor continued their good run with a 1-0 win over former conference side chorley and bishop Auckland also got through 1-0 against Farsley

Workington's run is still on track after a 1-1 draw at Matlock but the big game in the North West finished Stockport county 2 Salford city 0 so last seasons surprise package are out but FC United drew 3-3 against Harrogate

Big clubs to crash out today were kings Lynn, Boston utd, worcester City and Rushden and Diamonds

and the east midlands derby finished Mansfield AFC 1 Daniels 2 \:D/ \:D/ \:D/ \:D/

Next round is the last one before the first round proper but the big conference clubs enter at this stage 8-[

last round qualifying today before the main draw

Biggest thumping of the day was Kidderminster thrashing Weymouth 6-0 and Eastleigh thrashing North Leigh by the same score and Dover and Brackley town both winning 5-0 away from home

performance of the day i thing must go to Spennymoor who won 3-0 away at Lincoln united and Eastbourne winning 2-1 away at Aldershot but Bishop Aucklands cup run came to an end at Stockport with another shock at Tonbridge Angels who have been rampant scorers in previous rounds going down 3-0 at home although to Dartford who are the bigger club. the yorkshire derby finished Harrogate 0-2 halifax and the merseyside derby (sort of) finished Southport 1-0 Chester

Some minnows have got through though with Stourbridge winning 3-1 at Nantwich Merstham winning 2-1 against ebbfleet and Westfields winning 2-1 against leiston

Oh and my team it finished Daniels 1-1 Wrexham after 2 great chances went begging in the last 10 minutes they certainly were a match for their more opponents 3 divs above them but I suspect back at the racecourse ground might be a bit different 8-[
