The fa cup has lost its sparkle for many. Fans just don't get it like they used to. I think they could re-ignite the competition by offering a champions league place to the winners and letting only the top 3 premiership teams qualify instead of 4. It will never happen but if it did I reckon the majority of clubs who field weakened teams(and I include the championship clubs in this) for fa cup ties will start to think twice. The prize would be too great for them not to take it seriously. It would also capture fans imagination too. They should take away the semi-finals from Wembley while they're at it. We have plenty of stadiums with large capacities spread all over this country where each team would get a decent allocation. Also make the fa cup final a 3pm last Saturday of the season like it used to be.
I fear this great competition will continue to go downhill unless these kind of changes are made
