FA Cup Run 2025 - 2026

Apart from a minor match @ Wembley yesterday, just wanted to congratulate the players on reaching the FA cup 3rd round proper, which I’m told we automatically qualify for, well done lads!!

No more Vertu Trophy though. Sort of taken the shine off yesterday a bit for me realising that.

On the subject of the EFL Trophy, I wonder if we'll try again for Category One with the Academy now we're in a respectable Division.

We could potentially return to that glorious Tournament if so

We also now have all the International breaks off for definite......no waiting around to see if some U23"s kid has been picked to play for Uzbekistan & therefore we can call the match off a week beforehand.

Only downside is a lot more midweek matches

Doesn’t work out as that many more , does it ? Especially as we had games called off for international games anyway and we don’t have the two Saturdays for FA Cup early round games .
