    If ever a tie illustrates just how low the FA Cup has sunk with its pandering to the big clubs it's this.

    The reward for Tamworth drawing the match should have been a replay at Spurs in front of 60,0000. FAntastic for the players, FAntastic for the fans, FAntastic for the club finances. Instead they are out.

    The Big '5' have won 21 of the last 22 of a competition which just gets in the way of their greed league and European wishes. Why not just give them a bye into the last 8 and save everyone the pretence it's not all about them. Grrrrr!

    Football. It is not what it used to be!

    It favours the big boys.
