chopper Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 Sunderland will still manage to blow it somehow!!! Tough tie for the Albion, but Reading should be disposed of at the end of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pezza70 Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 The money the non league team will earn for the third round will be enough to keep them alive for the next 5 years If the game gets transfered to Old Trafford is it still considered a home game for them and will they recieve the gate money reciepts?

Dev Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 Sunderland will still manage to blow it somehow!!! That would be an upset of monumental proportions - it doesn't bear thinking about! We'll win comfortably I think. Even in our last relegation disaster season we managed to win 7-0 away at Cambridge and we didn't exactly win often that season either. Unfortunately the way things are going just now you just have a suspicion that the non-league team could get a result. Please no! Tough tie for the Albion, but Reading should be disposed of at the end of the day. Reading will win - FACT. I'm 37. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 yep very happy with that, home game against northampton or stevenage, although bearing in mind we only make the 4th round once a decade on average i am not counting chickens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revenue from the cup tie is split 50/50 after costs, wherever the tie is played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game can only be transferred if the police believe that the ground would be insafe to host the game. It is a requirement for clubs entering the FA Cup at the v ery first qualifying round that they can confirm they are able to host any potential tie. They are not allowed to switch a tie for purely financial reasons. Burton Albion would have to host the tie should they get through as they have just built a brand new stadium (the Pirelli Stadium) which ManUre opened a couple of weeks ago. As for Burscough, should their ground not be able to host the tie it would be moved to the nearest ground that can host the tie. This has happened a couple of times recently when Farnborough switched their game with Arsenal to the nearest suitable, available alternative (Highbury) and Yeading switched their tie with Newcastle to Loftus Road. Burscough would move their game to somewhere local, being one of the Scouse grounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
