FA Cup Draw Question

How do they decide what number you are? Do they have a draw for this?

 

We are number 28 for the fourth round draw!!!!

 

I used to think it was alphabetical but obviously not??

Were we match 28 of the previous draw?

Walked into work this morning, Ipswich fan one way, Citeh fan the other, "what time's the FA Cup Draw?" :D

I've got to ring one of each to get work out of them. I think I'll keep quiet about football :-$

It is all done alphabetically from the start of the comp. IE Atherton LR will be number one till they get knocked out, then that number is free for who comes in next and they all move up to fill the gaps. I think it may be explained better elsewhere. But it is why Arsenal tend always to be No1.

ermmmmmm

 

 

b......28?

arsenal are number one in the first draw they come into the competiton.

 

 

you get then become the number of the tie that you win so we won the 28th tie drawn.

 

 

if us v oldham was first tie drawn the winners would be number one on next round.

 

i think, and i am normally right. :D

Good point.

 

That was how they did it in the other rounds. For this round they just take the numbers across from the Ipswich game. As pointed out by someone else earlier.

 

Ill keep me mouth shut in future.
