THE dates for the qualifying rounds of the Emirates FA Cup have been released.

Clubs in extra preliminary round action for the FA Cup, which last year included Oxfordshire sides Wantage Town, Shrivenham and Easington Sports, will be played on Tuesday, September 1.

Every other round will be played in midweek to accommodate for the start of the season being delayed by the coronavirus pandemic.

The preliminary round will be on September 12, while Oxford City will join the competition on October 3 in second round qualifying.

The schedule for the first round proper, when Oxford United join the competition, will be confirmed later.
