Preamble
There are just the two top flight three o’clock kick-offs this afternoon, with Arsenal hosting Hull City at the Emirates and Fulham welcoming Newcastle United to Craven Cottage for an afternoon beside the Thames.
Beyond the top flight, there’s plenty of Championship action to keep us entertained, while there are no fewer than 33 FA Cup first round matches slated for today. The phoenix club AFC Rushden & Diamonds from the Northern Premier League Division One Midlands (English football’s eighth tier) are the lowest ranked side in action today and are being hosted by League One outfit Burton Albion.
You know how this works by now: team news, breathless updates from grounds where the drizzle is horizontal and frantic attempts to keep tabs on 48 different matches being played simultaneously across four different competitions. What could possibly go wrong?
