FA CUP. No replays this year.

Surely getting rid of the league cup would have made more sense?
It's rather a pointless competition these days. The small clubs really are not going to benefit from this. Such a shame for the sport.

The League Cup should be played during July and early August Dubs, it would be far more useful than endless, meaningless pre season friendlies.

Most teams play 7 or 8 friendlies anyway so just replace them and have a proper competition.

In the 70’s we had the Watney Cup and Texaco Cup pre season and those got well supported.

In fact, the Texaco Cup included the Scottish teams and I like that idea.

Thats a good idea actually. I remember the Leland Fleet wood paint competition we were in one year....think that was when we took the drop below this league in it's old reincarnation. I also agree with Soulman...go back to old European cup competition.
I dislike immensely these games where upon you get hammered a few times but are still not knocked out.
Not in the line of sportsmanship...
