I think we needed you there as an interpreter. Lynsey had a bit of a nightmare tonight.

Kings Lynn - managed by Ian Culverhouse, a stalwart of the Norwich City back four from my 1980s Panini sticker album.

I won't dwell on our ex player who plays for them as I'm trying to keep my blood pressure down.

I very much doubt it will get on big telly but it might be in with a chance of being on that Sunday afternoon thing if the BBC still does it.

Apparently no fans are allowed at any of the first round games regardless of tier of the football pyramid:

That female presenter was so out of her depth and made such a mess of the first few rounds I thought it would have to be re-drawn.
I was watching Vale as a teenager in '64 but that trip to Wembley to watch us in the final has slipped from my memory.

Used to do the show Colin Murray does now and was quite good. She did have a shocker last night , calling out the wrong team for one tie, think misheard 15 and 50 which anyone could do i guess. But overall looked very flustered and struggling for composure.

Not going to be easy. They have some good pros. Adam Marriott and Sam Kelly the standout examples.

I must admit I was surprised to read he played nearly 50 times for us and in league 1 too!

£22,629 to Round 1  winners 

They have changed it this season because of Covid, the winners only get 75% and the losers 25%

It's a return to Vale Park for former Valiant Sam Kelly 😉

Legend.

So if we were to reach the 3rd round and got a good draw at home say, could get tv cash and a payout if we lose? Assuming still restrictions at that time.

Yes, also prize money is split due to Covid. 75% to the winners and 25% to the losers.

If we play against a side lower than conference level, away, can we attend? Also, I noticed Notts County pulled out of their game yesterday due to COVID hitting them and have to forfeit their game/loss of winnings potentially too. 

fa have said no fans in any of the matches which just doesn't make any sense they can attend the final qualifying round but not the first round proper whats the difference

He scored some good goals but the thing that sticks in my memory the most is him running the ball out for a throw at fleetwood when we went down. Dick.

The  League clubs are in,  with only a few  games  with Tier 8 or below at home.  Their fans will have been to some live games so cant be too disappointed .

Quick check 5 games affected.

No surprise but we havent been chosen for tv

Thirteen games picked but no Vale on the list. Shame 

[Rampant Zebra]

Might have stood more chance of being on TV if we had been away.
