I read earlier today of plans/proposals to move the 4th and 5th round of the FA Cup to midweek :
What with getting rid of quarter final replays (as I think is the case from this year as well as semi final replays) and moving the Final kick off time to 5.30pm you can't help but think sometimes the FA Cup is an unwanted hindrance.
Is it just me - I still love the FA Cup and although I was minus 3 months last time we won it - I've watched every final (except one, in 2002) since I got into football just before the 1966 World Cup - indeed the first ever live match I saw was the FA Cup Final that year, Everton 3, Sheffield Wednesday 2 (back in the days when the FA Cup Final was the only live game televised).
