In August 2008 two football fans, disillusioned with football at the top level, decided to visit their local team, Dulwich Hamlet, to watch them play Broxbourne Borough in the Preliminary Round of the FA Cup.
They were instantly hooked and spent the next few months visiting the grounds of teams they’d never heard of, in places they’d never been, watching teams who were constantly struggling for survival in front of a handful of hardy fans. Teams who just want to play football.
As a result, they have regained their enthusiasm for football and for the FA Cup – they look forward to going to games and enjoy harking back to the good old days, when the romance of the cup was still something worth fighting for.
This website is for all those football fans who feel the same way.
Once the FA Cup starts, we’ll be organising trips to various matches in the early rounds, up until Christmas. If you’d like to know where we’re going to be and would like to join us or if you’d just like to be kept informed of our progress then please sign up to our regular newsletter.
Lets try and get the romance back into the Cup.
