FA draws announced Thursday lunchtime

Monday 05th July 2010

The Football Association are expected to publish the draws for the early rounds of The FA Cup sponsored by E.On, FA Carlsberg Trophy and FA Carlsberg Vase at 1:00pm on Thursday lunchtime, writes Mike Green.

Just as the second World Cup Semi Final began in Durban, we received confirmation that the draws would be announced on Thursday lunchtime, and for news of all our our clubs involvement in the respective draws, look right here on Kentishfootball.co.uk just after 1:00pm, as we put the bones on the longest draw of the season...

It was announced last week that the Football Association have agreed a one-year extension with energy provider E.ON, as sponsors of The FA Cup.

Following four very successful seasons as FA Cup sponsor, the deal allows E.ON to continue their involvement in football at all levels of the game, as they also continue as sponsor of The FA Women's Cup, The FA Youth Cup and The FA Schools Partner.

Alex Horne, General Secretary of The FA, said: “E.ON have been a great partner for The FA Cup and we are delighted they are extending the relationship a further year. This arrangement fits neatly with our overall sponsorship plans.”
