Our equivalent is the FA Cup Final which is a knock out competition for all full members of the Football Association.

So the competition starts early in the season on small grounds with half a dozen people watching and gradually the bigger clubs come in.

It gives an opportunity of which luck and good draws for a small club to get drawn against a top club, earn some money and give their supporters a great day out.

The final takes place at Wembley at the end of May I have in the past posted some photos of the FA Cup Final. It was held in Cardiff for a few years when Wembley was being re-built and my photos are from Cardiff.

I will dig some out and post some tomorrow.

I was actually looking at Wembley on Google Earth and it looked like the world’s largest construction site and big pile of steel.

I bet it’s palatial by now...
