The FA Cup third round draw is finally upon us.
This season’s competition began for 446 clubs back on the first weekend of August, when teams from step nine of the English footballing pyramid kicked off the extra preliminary round. Roman Glass St George could not back up their 7–0 win and the rest of the ninth tier have since fallen by the wayside, but there will be four teams from outside the professionalised Football League involved in Monday’s draw—twice as many as last season.
