Does anyone know how the ball numbers get allocated to teams? Is it just pot luck?

 

[Houchens Head]

Numbers probably put in one bag, team names in another and then two tea-ladies at the FA probably select one each alternately !

I think each tie has a number, and the winner of the tie gets that number in the next round. Were we the first game drawn last time?

I don't think so, but its possible that that is the way they do it

Its how the matches were drawn for the last round. So Barnsley Cov was match 1 and ball 1 for the draw.
