FA Cup Third Round Mega Open Thread

We get a blissful break from the Premier League this weekend, only to be replaced by the third round of the FA Cup! The neat thing about the FA Cup, aside from it being a super cool tournament involving every club officially within the English football pyramid, is that when it gets to this stage every match is streamed online in the United States on ESPN+.

So that means that now’s your best chance to watch some truly tiny clubs play football. Which is sort of neat! When else are you going to get to watch AFC Barrow or Kidderminster Harriers? Go have fun with it! Some might say... it’s magic.

The schedule is below. I’ll note which ones are televised. For American viewers, you can find all of them somewhere on ESPN+ if you have a subscription.
