FA Cup 2015/16 - The Road to Wembley!

[Panda]

The FA Cup draw was published on Friday, which means it's time to choose Haven's teams for the coming season.

As usual, we will have two teams - one chosen by me and one chosen by Haven members through a poll from those nominated.

You can select any team from those involved in the opening round, as long as it wasn't a Haven team at any point last season.

Last season's Haven teams were: Fawley, Kirby Muxloe, AFC Portchester, Folland Sports, Ellistown & Ibstock United, Halesowen Town, Frome Town, Guiseley, Boreham Wood, Grimsby Town, Woking, Oxford United, Wrexham, Tranmere Rovers, Stoke City, Swansea City, Blackburn Rovers, Liverpool, Aston Villa

Make your nominations in this thread from the teams listed in the draw for Round 1 (or the Extra Preliminary Round as the FA insists on calling it).

Tadcaster Albion, or the Brewers, need I say more?

[frag]

Bexhill United - one of my hometown teams, and I haven't seen them being in the FA cup before!

[lewis17]

Bacup Borough

[Panda]

For my team, I'm choosing one of my local clubs - one with a friendly committee and who've worked very hard over the years to turn their ground into a really nice place to watch a game of football.

Also, based on last season's league positions, they are one of the lowest-ranked teams to qualify for this season's FA Cup, making it in after an absence of six years.

Haven's first FA Cup team for 2015/16 is THORNABY.

Herne Bay

Actually, don't think they're in it so i'll go for Canterbury City instead.

[Mart!n]

I go for this... for the laugh out loud factor

Penistone Church
