My choice is a team who were formed over 50 years ago but are taking part in the FA Cup for the very first time.

They play in the East Midlands Counties League at step 6 of the pyramid.

Their colours (according to their website, anyway) are white and green.

They play at the Lenton Lane Ground in Nottingham.

Ladies and gentlemen, Haven's first FA Cup team for the 2009-10 season is:

GREENWOOD MEADOWS


Now it's over to you for your suggestions for Haven's second team...

Stone Dominoes sound like they may have hit on the explanation for a certain monument on Salisbury Plain so I'll choose them

Ooh, good choice.
They hail from the town of Stone, I believe. Regular matches with Paper Marbles don't tend to go well for them, but they do usually beat Scissor Tiddlywinks.

They have already had a BBC1 documentary following them to Wembley, so they're disqualified. Notable for one of the younger fans praising the manager - "he's put Diss Town on the map."

I vote Pilkington XXX. Not least because they sound like a very posh secret agent/porn star.

Since when, that woulda been reported in all the media round here I would have thought (being 10 miles from said town). Maybe I've just totally missed that one.
