Shehneela Ahmed with the new FA Cup
Rochdale born football agent, Shehneela Ahmed was a special guest of honour at the unveiling the new FA Cup in Mayfair, London.
Ms Ahmed said: "It's a pleasure to be invited as special guest of honour to witness the unveiling of the new FA Cup.
"The lucky clubs will have to wait till next May, before they can get their hands on the famous cup; for me to be the first, I'm speechless."
The old FA Cup is fragile and too delicate to repair - the FA will keep it at Wembley.
The new model - only the fourth in the cup's 143-year history - is an exact replica of the 1911 version.
