Build the cup-winning squad of your dreams with the greatest names in English football and try to lift the world's oldest cup unbeaten — the legendary 8–0.
The FA Cup Draft on 38–0 is an FA Cup game (and simulator) that runs
in your browser, for free and with no sign-up. You draft and line up stars from the greatest cup sides of all time,
build your own XI and battle through the FA Cup in its real format: pure knockout football, round by round, all the way to Wembley.
How it works
Run the draft and build a team with players from dozens of historic English clubs.
Knockout from the first whistle — every tie is a single match, and a draw goes to extra time and penalties.
Play in Armchair mode (pick your XI and watch) or Manager mode (proper gaffer).
Ratings anchored in reality — historical consensus, never inflated.
