Helen decided to dress down for the live draw (and no jokes about balls guys, that's really silly, and potentially libelous)

So tune in to Soccer AM on Sky Sports 1 on Saturday August 16, or even Sky One if your a tight bugger like me who only pays 15quid a month to watch 24, and they didn't even show it this year, at least there's Ross Kemp.

The programme was shown on both channels last season and you can still catch it before leaving for Millwall, we might even get Millwall, or tape it if you've decided to go to Lords, or just read about it on here, we need the clicks.

The first round game will be played during the week of September 1.

However, we might get a bye, hurrah. To find that out, log onto www.football-league.co.uk on Friday, August 8.

The new Wembley stadium

This could all be ours, just start saving for those five pound beers now

If we get past Dagenham at home, or whoever the lovely Helen, now a 13-year veteran of the show, or the new bloke, pulls out of the hat, (let's start practising those penalties boys, at least Lewis has gone), the following dates should be put on reminder.

Round 2 draw - Saturday, September 6.
Area Quarter Final - Saturday, October 11.
Area Semi Final - Saturday, November 8.
