The
annual quest to take in a match from every round of the FA Cup and FA Vase has
suffered this year with rounds in the two competitions sometimes (like today)
clashing, requiring a choice to be made in favour of the Vase, being more local
longer and having real potential to go all the way to the Wembley final (as
last season); today’s plans to attend a Vase last-sixteen tie at West Auckland
or Spennymoor were scuppered by late postponements due to waterlogged pitches,
opening up a window to go to the Sunderland v Southampton FA Cup tie, immediately
closed as by then it was too late to get to the early kick off, leaving only plan
C comprising Man City v Chelsea on the TV, so at least a frustrating day ended
on a high.
