By: John Treleven Date: June 21, 2022, 2:14 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
1945-46 Notes (1)
Format
The matches were two legged until the Semi-Finals
There were 88 F.L. clubs (four divisions with 22 in each)
but Hull City (3N) and New Brighton (3N) did not compete
47 clubs exempt to Round 3 - all 22 Div 1 clubs, 21 of 22 (not
Newport Co.) Div 2 clubs
plus Norwich C. (21st Div 2 1938-39), Crystal P. (2nd Div 3S
1938-39),
Chester (6th Div 3N 1938-39) and Cardiff C. (13th Div 3S
1938-39).
Chester and Cardiff had both reached 4th Round replays in
1938-39
They would be joined by the 17 survivors from Round 2 to form
the last 64.
43 clubs exempt to Round 1 - 19 remaining clubs in each of Div
3S and Div 3N plus
Newport Co. (1st Div 3S 1938-39) and 4 non-league clubs, Bishop
Auckland
(Amateur Cup holders), Bath City, South Liverpool and Yeovil
Town
Yeovil Town (as Yeovil & Petters U.) had reached a 3rd Round
replay in 1938-39
25 qualifiers would make up a total of 68 clubs in Round 1
Draws on aggregate were to play extra time of 10 (not 15)
minutes each way. If still level play on and first goal wins
"golden goal" (G.G.)
The golden goal only "worked" on two occasions, in three others
the matches
had to be abandoned, because of bad light, with no deciding goal
having been scored
Lengthy ties (over 180 minutes) (inc. abandonments)
Blackpool v Middlesbrough (4R) 381 minutes
Nottingham F. v Watford (3R) 333 minutes
Q.P.R. v Crystal Palace (3R) 297 minutes
Bromley v Slough United (1R) 260 minutes
Mansfield Town v Gainsborough Trinity (1R) 210 minutes
Bury v Sunderland (4R) 210 minutes
Preston North End v Manchester United (4R) 210 minutes
Everton v Preston North End (3R) 207 minutes
The first round was drawn in seven regional groupings, the
second in five,
the third in four, the fourth in two, before the fifth became
nationwide
No first or second round tie required a replay, or even extra
time in the latter
Gateshead were drawn to play their first legs at home v
Hartlepools U. (R1),
Darlington (R2) and Rotherham United (R3) but all were switched
to avoid
clashes with Newcastle United
Bromley v Slough United (R1 1st Leg) on Sat 17th Nov was
abandoned at 2-1 after
80 minutes due to bad light as the match had started late
following the breakdown
of the visitors coach on the way to the match, the re-match was
played four days later
West Ham United v Chelsea first leg was due at W.H.U.
but after the crowd broke in for the last round v Arsenal
they were given time to make repairs so the first leg was played
at Chelsea
Charlton v Bolton S-F replay would have been at Chelsea
Southport programme (R1, L1) has Duerden as the referee
but he had been transferred to the Carlisle match
Salmonwas referee of Aston Villa v Coventry (R3, L2), not
Reader
as Reader, a schoolteacher, did not officiate midweek matches
Law replaced McLachlan 3 (R4 at Bristol City)
Martin replaced Boardman 1 (R4 at Middlesbrough)
