Not many weeks after last seasons final and there are literally hundreds of Qualifying round matches all over the country.
Shifnal have a home tie against Derbyshire side Belper
And Whitchurch Allport are also at home against Irlam.
Dont see any other Shropshire representatives, are Market Drayton Town not in it this season?

By the time it gets to the quarter-finals I’m usually watching Cash in the Attic on Blu-Ray. Thanks for sharing for all the queer fish like me. |

And the qualifying rounds of the Euro competitions rather than when it's taken over by the big names. |

I think you might have your wires crossed old chum. It was actually Virgina Wade who won Wimbledon, not Virgina Water. I expect you’re getting confused as the ladies singles trophy is called the Venus Rosewater Dish. |

Decent game at Larkfield who scored 2 goals in 2 mins 30 mins in. Kennington scored with a long range effort which dipped over the keeper early 2nd half. It got a bit tetchy late on but FT was 2-1.
Att 251.
Larkfield & New Hythe have a 100% FA Cup record!
They are home again in the next round in 2 weeks time v Lingfield who beat Hollands & Blair 1-0 at home.

Saw some FA Cup stats on X last week.
It is the 144th year of the FA Cup and now 144 teams have been accepted 100+ times.
At the top of the list 2 teams have been accepted 143 times, anyone have any idea who these 2 teams are? (no googling lol)
