No more Monday night FAC ties

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unofficial Newcastle United Football Club BBS : One Thread

Sporting Life reporting that from next season, FAC draws will take place after the matches have been played.

An FA spokesman said: "It's written in the new TV contract which comes in next season, that the draw will take place after all of the games have been completed on a Sunday evening." Under the terms of the new deal, FA Cup ties will not be staged on Monday nights so teams should not know their opponents in the next round unless their game goes to a replay or is re-arranged.
