sirbenofmorlingshire added 10:15 - Aug 12 Not wishing to sound stupid (and yes I could probably google it - but suspect there maybe many like me out there - I hope). What does "seeded" actually mean in footballing terms??? Is there any actual benefit to it... Can anyone explain the whole seeded thing to help broaden my mind - or should i just google it?

Stourbridgeblue added 10:23 - Aug 12 It means you won't be drawn against another seeded team. Thereby avoiding a Prem club. Simples.

newburyblue added 10:23 - Aug 12 It just means that none of the 'seeded' teams will play each other. So all the 'seeded' teams will be in one pop and the 'unseeded' in another. Just to try and get the 'better' clubs through to the next round. We will only be seeded for this round and then teams like United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool etc will all be seeded.
