    FA Cup replays

    Scrapped from next season. FA & Prem clubs agreed on this but not thinking about the smaller clubs who could rely on replays as a source of extra income.

    They never do think about the smaller clubs do they.
    The FA Cup has been losing its magic for a few years now and this is just one more nail in the coffin.
    If they wanted to cut down on fixtures why not scrap the Carabao Cup and leave the FA Cup alone?

    The FA (Football Association) is no longer an association!!!

    Chairmen of EFL clubs didn't know!

    Err no. That is being introduced to the Championship next season I do believe.

    Why don't they tell the mega massively staffed Premier teams to use all their 44+ team players they have, so they're not tired with all the footy they have to get through in a season.

    Sentimental nonsense about FA CUP replays

    Loads of sentimental dewy eyed nonsense all over the media about the ending of FA Cup Replays.

    I can almost hear Ron Manager in the background
    ' jumpers for goalposts, marvellous'.

    The FA Cup has bern dead for years, since semi finals were first played at Wembley.

    I just hope they go one step further and scrap the whole competition.

    Time to ditch the Carabao, EFL trophy and FA Cup altogether and just have one brand new competition to replace these sad, jaded competitions

    FA say all parties agreed to scrap the replays

    So somebody at our club voted on this ?
