I thought it was alphabetical Only in the first round each team is in - then the balls are in the order that they were drawn out in the previous round. Needlessly convoluted, really 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 I want to see us win the league but the FA Cup used to be our cup. 1957 7 wins and then nothing. Even once a decade we’d be on 14. We have to make this our cup again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needlessly convoluted, really You can't assign an alphabetic ordered number to the winner of a game that hasn't been played (or decided), but you can assign it to the fixture itself. I'd say it's the only logical option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
