The long-awaited first round draw of the 2019/20 FFS Cup took place this evening.
Just over 2,300 managers applied for the 1,024 places available in the first round draw, with the Gameweek 13 qualifying score set at 65 (after hits) and an overall rank of 233,444 or better needed for those hitting that total exactly.
Six former champions – Gribude, Joe, Wild Rover, Mark, A Manager Has No Name and Lokomotiv – were exempt from the qualifying score and received a bye upon submitting their applications.
