FA cup and confusion over Dataco stuff

[Lardyc7]

Im planning on going to Buxton again today as Ive got a new toy (1d mk4) but having (tried) to read the dataco stuff on here I'm confused.

Does Dataco cover non-league teams in the FA cup, I know it would do if either team was a Premier league or other leagues down to the conference but if both teams are below that level??

I apologise as the info is probably there but just having trouble deciphering an unfamiliar subject......bit like exposure/autofocus/etc etc.

So it does cover non league teams but not until round one proper

Does that mean that you couldn't photograph a Round 1 tie between two Conference teams unlees you have a DataCo liicence? For me, the DataCo statement on 'Photos and text' is as clear as mud.

My understanding is that as the FA cup progresses and higher leagues play non-league, if you have a non-league licence you are covered if the game is at a non-league ground. Something about the ground rather than the clubs playing?

Thanks kipax. Glad it's not just me that finds it confusing lol.

well the link I posted is from the dataco website and would seem to disagree with you ?

That link doesn't make it any clearer to me, but I'm a dummy! Hey ho! Well, so far we have never progressed up that far, so the issue isn't likely to become important (but you never know ...)
