QPHa v Fulham FA Youth Cup

[SouthfieldWhite]

Our u18s have been drawn away to QPHa in the FAYouth club

I'm trying to get as many fans as possible to go and cheer our great u18s side, tickets will be cheap and could be a good night out and give our boys some real vocal support and make like a home game to them

Will update once a date is known, if you've ever wanted to go to an u18s game, this is the one :-)

to be played by the 21st Dec, iirc they're usually the Wed and Thurs before that date

Is it at Motspur or the Cottage? This is a must see.

is at their gaff. Not sure if it would be moved to Loftus Road, otherwise their training ground isn't the easiest to get to.

driving wise it is, just off of the a4. other options could be Piccadilly train to hatton cross then a bus. not much around the area at all though, just a couple of pubs.

It won't be at their training ground and I'd be surprised if they didnt play it at Loftus road

Unfortunately my cousin is married to the Academy manager of ha ha, and i had high hopes for her too !. He thinks he's gods gift to football. An arrogant cocky you know what. Beating those skid marks is always satisfying , regardless of what level. But beating them on this occasion would be just as sweet. That would put the you know what in his place.  049:gif

No that's not correct, and not sure if that use to be a rule or not

These are the only rules I can find in regards to venues

9. VENUE FOR MATCHES
(a) Venue
(i) The venue of each match will be that of the first drawn Club unless the consent of the
Council has been obtained to any change of venue up to and including the Fifth
Round Proper.
(ii) No monetary or other consideration shall be asked for, offered or paid in connection
with negotiations for a change of venue.
(iii) A match shall not be played on a neutral ground without the consent of the Council.
(iv) In any event, the Council shall have the power to order that any match be played on
an alternative ground or date, if it is considered appropriate and necessary. For ties
switched from the ground of the Club first drawn, the Council shall determine the
financial conditions in which the tie shall be played.

when I played in the FA Youth Cup we always played at the clubs ground and this season was my nephews 1st year in the cup and his club were also hoping for a good draw so they could play at a "top" prem clubs gound

EDIT - it was always midweek and under the flood lights regardless of playing at Old Trafford or Borhamwood, possibly not a RULE as I had previously stated but is common practice very rare is it not at the first teams ground
