One of the 79 teams will get a bye into the 2nd round of the FA Cup



IT's not just the bye - the last team in the bowl gets a bye + £36,000 win money.

That is ridiculous. That money should be shared out between the other winners. OK, maybe £5,000 for the team not having a game, and the other £31,000 shared out.

As it is, it's a freebie walk into the next round, which equals a decent chance of reaching the third round and a lucrative draw with a Premier club, and the win money. That is plain wrong. Even if it's us that gets it.
