The FA Cup Conundrum ????

[pass_and_move]

It's a reight conundrum Pass innit .

There's no right way and no wrong way here at all , all the opinions put forward are credible .

My biggest beef with clubs who disrespect the competition are those who are halfway or above up the PL , safe from relegation , can't reasonably expect to qualify for europe and still send out significantly weaker teams in the early rounds , many of whom pay a hefty price for it too and rightly so .

I don't like the second string lads negotiating the early rounds for their clubs and then getting binned off when they get to the quarter or semi finals either .

If we were halfway up the championship table with 30 points then I'd expect the HC to send out our best eleven but if Struber doesn't at Crewe then he won't get any pelters from me irrespective of the result because I can see why he wouldn't field our strongest team .

Both scenarios are understandable as you say mate. Personally, I'd guess that Struber will field a weakened team against Crewe(Mowatt n Woodrow will be sold by then ). Being a foreigner he probably won't appreciate the magnitude of the fa cup or it's significance. His remit is to keep us up and that will obviously be his main objective. Foreign managers are notorious for criticising the amount of games we laik in English football. I'd think the FA cup will be seen as extra games we could do wi art in his eyes, hope I'm wrong mind.

Hope I am wrong Roma mi owd. I hope he fields his best teeum and we go on a good cup run.

Thinking abart it, foreign coaches do respect it cos it wo world wide years agu and cup final day wo broadcast ivryweer. Agenda of club owners is a different thing though as tha reightly sez

Replacements this board will bring in will be untried and untested at this level which would see us back to square one quicker than tha can say 'post tax profit'

Get out of the cup. Championship safety is the priority. I’ll take the shame of it. We have a bigger more rewarding task to focus on.
