This is what fans said to the latest FA Cup First Round TV selections revealed by BBC and ITV…
@DarthGoose13: Wankfest over Wrexham continues.
@OldManWinter999: Wrexham v Harrogate ahead of Curzon v Mansfield or Wimbledon v Milton Keynes is a disgrace.
@matthew_oregan: Harrogate vs Wrexham- magic of the FA Cup🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@Finlay_Rufc5: Seem to be doing your best to destroy the magic of the FA Cup. We don’t need to see every game Wrexham play there’s so many better matches you could’ve chosen. Give non league sides the platform they deserve
@Calstagram123: Well mental that MK Dons haven’t made it v Wimbledon
@oafc24: Harrogate v Wrexham 😂
@craigyjones17: Well, Birmingham and us do need the TV money in fairness 🙏 Jokes aside, where is the Dons derby? And Curzon v Mansfield should have been on.
@Gooey1983: Wrexham 🥱
@JoseeephF1: Always Wrexham 🥱
@westhamfan76: Harrogate v Wrexham… why? League 2 v League 1 when there are plenty of other ties involving non league teams against League 1 opposition.
@BurneyMcr1: Surprised Curzon Ashton v Mansfield hasn’t been chosen over the Harrogate v Wrexham game but it’s obvious why.
@sw19resistance: Harrogate v Wrexham is a real stinker to pick. Shame Bristol Rovers v Weston-super-Mare didn’t make the cut.
@CUFCscott: Wow I’m really happy that we can watch Harrogate-Wrexham instead of franchise-wimbledon
@AFLCymru: So yet again Wrexham get the preferential treatment they’ve always had, for a dull game against Harrogate, but MK Dons vs Wimbledon, probably the biggest grudge match in the UK, they’ve decided not to televise?!?!
@jamiekay1613: Wrexham and Birmingham need the tv money 🥱 the fa cup is dead.
@StagsAnalytics: Curzon Ashton (3rd in the NLN) vs Mansfield Town (3rd in league one) doesn’t get picked over Harrogate Town Vs Wrexham. These TV picks are a shambles. #stags
@_____Phil_____:
Slowly killing the magic of the cup!
Why show league side v league sides! We want giant killings! The money is peanuts to then!
How your not showing Bristol v Weston is a surprise.
Some decent ties with step 6/7 clubs ignored again!
@bunsey73: Did you miss the Dons v Franchise tie?
@AdamSinners: The TV fascination has gone from Salford to Wrexham now. Absolutely shocking pick to be honest
@mackem360: As a neutral, Wimbledon MK Dons is the draw of the round. Ridiculous it’s not televised.
@markbhafc777: There are better games than Harrogate Vs Wrexham
@jordandavies09: Harrogate v Wrexham. Two football league clubs is an absolute disgrace
Rushall vs Accrington
Curzon Ashton vs Mansfield
Boreham Wood vs Leyton Orient
Worthing vs Morecambe.
These non league clubs looking for a EFL scalp. They’re the games that should be televised.
@BarrySpinnaker: Wrexham. Seriously? Thought Southend v Charlton might have got the nod.
@JasonJames_73: No MK v Wimbledon? 😳
@TRFCJoeS: Excuse me? Tranmere and Oldham?
@JoeBurtonDurham: Beyond a joke this

#FACup 1st Rd TV picks.
The story of the round is Hednesford Town, but completely ignored! Neither they nor Gainsborough Trinity have made Rd 2 this century!
As always the TV companies don’t use their services to promote the FA Cup they use the FA Cup to promote their services! https://t.co/l7XhgWKX4S
