The 2002/3 FF Cup (Echo) starts January 2003

Well, we have to start somewhere and in traditional FA Cup action, it's the weakest who enter first. The bottom 10 teams in the table will be drawn together for the 1st round prelim. The 5 winners from these ties will progress to Round 1 proper joining the other 10 teams except Dave who has a Bye, courtesy of the 12 Days of Christmas.

This years rules are:

  • Straight knockout. A tie will result in a replay.
  • 1 goal scored equals just that, 1 goal for the team.
  • An own goal counts against the team.
  • A Goalkeepers clean sheet cancels out the opponents FIRST goal only. If the opponent hasn't scored, then there is nothing to cancel out.
