Gonna be a lot of smaller teams thinking try and get the fixture moved to the bigger teams stadium, could be a massive revenue killer for them

Sums up modern day football, all about the big clubs and f**k the rest

Is this the replay of the original thread!?

It was, but now it isn't.

 

[Geppetto]

Changed because the mags' squad can't hack it.

 

[Norton]

Wht not just let the top 8 teams play in the quarter finals starting Feb. With the proviso that Man c, Man u, Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs and Chelsea are in the top 8.

 

[Swindon On Tour]

Wrong at every level.
Another nail in the football coffin, the tradition replaced by Money at the top.
Real sad day for football.

 

[Seaham Towny]

Saw yesterday Grimsby and Tranmere have released statements that they're not happy. Surely there are more too.

Just more 'pull the ladder up Jack, and sod the rest'

Salford are perfectly happy with it.

2 of the greatest ever games at Roker Park were FA Cup replays

Noticable that Sunderland havent said anything, or have I missed it?

 

[FlashGordon]

It's a disgraceful decision. The big clubs need their players protecting because they're playing too many games... But they want more European games to make the big bucks for themselves and just scrap cup replays instead which benefits all of the smaller clubs down the pyramid.

At least two of the worst ever games were also replays.
