What are the chances of FCUOM playing against United in the FA cup ? How many games they need to win to get there ?

FCUM are in the first of four qualifying rounds. They would have to win all those and then the first two "proper" rounds of the FA Cup to go in the same draw as MUFC.

Here's a link to last season's competition on Wikipedia that should make it clearer for you:

So that 6 rounds in total ? Quite a long road that. Does anyone know when was the last time a non-league team made it to 3rd proper round ?

Edit: Just check last year competition and Havant & Waterlooville is a non league team. So this thing does happen quite often then ?

But there is a better chance of getting to the first round proper and I personally would love to see us play Leeds
