Are Peterborough required to field something resembling a first team in the Maunsell Cup?

The Hednesford game is a good one. They've got a Football League standard ground and have just been relegated from Conference North.
They say we've lost our money we're not famous anymore.....

I'm sure there is something in the rule book about "strongest team available". It won't be a Youth Team that's for sure.

Personally looking forward to the Hednesford game as it's just down the road. A throwback to the Conference days of the old RDFC and a memorable 3-2 victory on a hot August evening! I remember the steward trying to kick me out for blowing an air hooter - I was only 14!!

I'm assuming part of the ground share agreement is a friendly with Wellingborough every year?

I understand the main reason is to raise money for jointly financed ground improvements.
