The First Round Draw was made today, I don’t know which round we enter, possibly the next round if it’s like last season.

Is it me or is that a very low number of teams? Appreciate bigger teams come in later but no Chalfonts etc?
13 1st Round ties last season, 12 this season.

As Chalfont St Peter got relegated, I think they no longer qualify. I’m just trying to think of the teams missing - Maidenhead Utd, Chesham, Aylesbury Utd, MK Irish, Slough Town, Windsor & Eton, Reading & Us? I’m surprised MK Dons have entered so entry in the competition this year

A South Bucks tie in the next round would be great. We have an agreement that we’ll play away from home?
Yes!
All EFL & National Level sides play away if they are drawn against a lower league club so that they get the money from the fixture.

We are at home to Bristol Rovers on 6th October, hopefully the fixtures don’t clash.
England international as well?

Winslow are at home to Aylesbury United in the league on 5th October but B & B matches always take precedence over league.
