All Wednesday's results added in now - serious glitches within the FA system tonight as of the 11 results on the "official" site, 2 or 3 were wrong. Also corrected a couple of errors from Tuesday's games. Draw for the Second Round Qualifying is on Friday, released round about 1:00pm

Only 2 teams from Step 6 of the National League System remain - Risborough Rangers and Saltash United. Both are teams held by participants in the FA Cup Sweepstake on the other thread (one of them is mine!)

Tuesday results edited in to the post at the bottom of page 1. These are provisional, in case any team has updated the wrong result to the FA (I've already picked up on one error, the FA site had Swindon Supermarine 0-3 Shepton Mallet when in reality the home team won 3-0. I will update at some time tomorrow.

Hashtag v Soham TR game is tonight (Monday) not Tuesday. In all, 5 ties take place tonight 50 Hitchin Town 3-0 Needham Market 54 Hashtag United 1-1 Soham Town Rangers (Hashtag United won 4-2 on penalties) 67 New Salamis 1-2 Brentwood Town 93 Beaconsfield Town 0-2 Harrow Borough 97 Carshalton Athletic 5-0 Faversham Town In addition, two teams have withdrawn and given their opponents walkovers 15 Atherton Collieries w/o-scr Bamber Bridge 113 Merthyr Town scr-w/o Poole Town

Well I wasn't expecting THAT!

Re the "All time" list "Perfect" has now cut the gap behind "My Way" to 2.7899 points but since it has been knocked down to Gerrymandered Chart Ratio it's point scoring ability has taken a huge knock, instead of racking up about 0.4-0.5 points each week it is now down to less than 0.1 In other long running hits news, "Dance Monkey" has now risen to about no. 15, "Blinding Lights" to about no. 40 and "Mr Brightside" to about no. 56. (all "about" as noted above, I've still got some 76-100 chart data to add)

According to the WTA, Kenin is ranked No. 5, but the point still stands I guess. 1. Barty 2. Halep 3. Osaka 4. Plíšková 5. Kenin

It was panned at the time partly due to its association with the truly awful film of the same name (in which Bowie had a prominent role and also starred Patsy Kensit of Eighth Wonder)

Not only is he "willing" to walk away with no deal, I believe that's been Plan A for the Cummings/Johnson administration since Day 1. God knows why though.

Too early to definitively rate the drivers, there's still almost half a season left to go!

If it's AFTER the Time Trial it will be too late to matter. All that's left after that is the ceremonial stage to Paris.

All results now double checked. Sunday results added in, still awaiting exact penalties score from Hashtag but they won according to their Twitter account. Still one game to come on Monday night (tie 137) and tie 108 still needs to be resolved.

Preliminary Round results added in to the post above. This is only from one source so far, so I'll check it again against a second source in the morning. One tie was abandoned and is subject to investigation. 2 ties will be played on Sunday and one more on Monday night. The draw for the first round qualifying should be on Monday, but this has not been confirmed as far as I know.

How can "Perfect" go from Zero weeks of decline on w/e 10/9/20 straight to ACR a week later? Is it just a fix to ensure it doesn't break "My Way"'s chart records?

I don't get the "Perez deserves it more than Stroll" line of thinking. Since they've been together at Racing Point, Perez's best finish is 5th. Stroll has bettered that on four occasions, including 3 times in the last 6 races.

Some more walkovers due to Covid-19, ties 1, 19, 48, 51 & 128 will now not take place Edit: Add No. 39

Peacehaven & Telscombe have been removed from the competition for fielding an ineligible player. Bearsted have been re-instated and will play Whyteleafe in the Preliminary Round this Saturday.

Extra Preliminary Round Results added in to Post 1 above, with one game to be played on Thursday night. I need to double check these later on, and then I'll add the Preliminary Round draw after that.

Or., blowing my own trumpet a little (and because the site celebrates it's 20th birthday this very day), my site Football Club History Database

Desborough Town are an interesting team - they've played in the same league since formation in 1896. It was known as the Northamptonshire League when they joined and became the United Counties League in 1934, without ever being promoted or relegated out of it (they did miss the first season after WW2 in 1945-46 while still dormant) They've reached the First Round Proper once, in 1926-27, and Wikipedia takes up the story "drawn away to Third Division North Doncaster Rovers, the team were drawing the game before it was abandoned with eight minutes left due to fog. In the replayed match, Doncaster won 3–0". In recent times, they have progressed through the Extra Preliminary Round four times in the last eight attempts

AFC Darwen are a "Phoenix" club formed in 2009 when the original Darwen FC folded. That club had been FA Cup semi-finalists in 1880-81, and played in the Football League from 1891-99. The rest of their existence was spent at lower levels. AFC Darwen started off in the West Lancashire League for their debut season, and have played in the North West Counties League ever since. This is their fifth FA Cup appearence with only one win (a 3-1 win over Barnton in 2018-19) to their credit.

Looks like the BBC will be covering Maine Road v Squires Gate instead
