We had some good players in that team and were lucky to come away with a win and for large parts of the game we were second best on the night.

al_bro Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 We'll probably win this because our forwards are better than their defenders, and our defence although poor, should be able to cope with their forwards. Midfield however we will be trounced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 FA have changed the prize money structure for this season - probably due to the current situation with no fans being able to go. 1st round they've taken money off the winning prize and topped up the losers payout - £16,972 for the winners and £5,657 - otherwise losers away from home, with no TV coverage would get nothing (I think). https://www.thefa.com/competitions/thefacup/prize-fund Also interesting to note that in qualification rounds, if a team had a COVID19 +ve test, that team had to forfeit and their opponents received the bye into the next round. This in not happening in the rounds proper; the FA will determine what will happen in the event of a team having +ve test. I can't see them doing anything other than byes under current guidelines, but there you have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not nearly enough time to get pissed. Unless I get hammered on Saturday night and top up on the Sunday. This will be the first kick I’ve seen of a Latics match this season, think I’ll need a wee dram or two to get me through it from what I’ve heard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

U.S. Blues Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I'll be watching the early morning Cup action here in the States. Latics used to battle with footballing giants in the FA Cup. Now its Hampton & Richmond Borough Im worried about. I distinctly remember thinking they were a dirty team from the last cup tie. Damn those dirty dirty Beavers.

I can’t imagine they have elite sport Covid protocols in place? National Leagues North and South were deemed elite. The campaign was instigated by York who despite being top at the time of lockdown had a worst PPG than Kings Lynn who were promoted. York led the campaign so playoffs could take place, which they fancied their chances in, they ended up not getting to Wembley. H&R are in National League South, so I think they will be OK. Some of the other teams might struggle, but given the government has apparently said those who can't work from home can go to work I think they'll be OK. Think the FA Cup will continue, even if league football at level 7 and below stops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzlatic Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 I think all 1st round games were classed as elite - hence no fans allowed. So presumably they’ll all go ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
