Quote from: Risso on April 23, 2018, 09:59:12 AMQuote from: cdbullyweefan on April 23, 2018, 09:45:55 AMWe do care about it. With the exception of changing goalkeepers, we tend to play near enough a full-strength team apart from the one game when Houllier had us enter the pitch waving a white flag.We just don't win the cup because we aren't very good at football.Have you forgotten this year's disaster at home to Peterborough. Loads of changes, shit performance.Okay then, we always treated it seriously when we were in the Premier League and had a, theoretical, chance of winning it.Anyway, we didn't exactly play a youth side. The only one who doesn't play regularly was O'Hare, and that was because Hogan and Kodjia were injured and Grabban hadn't signed yet.

Westwood is playing for Burnley today - they’ve equalised, and will probably now win. Lambert in!

The special editions of Question of Sport, the fun and frolics with possibly Morecambe and Wise. The celebrity game featuring amongst others, Robin Asquith. Then at Half Time me and my mate would go out onto the grass close to the dangerously busy road by my mum and dads and replay the first half.That rings a bell. The road to Wembley, interviews on the coach.......jumpers for goalposts etc..And a three o'clock kick off.Hadn't it used to be 3.30?

I think if the winter break comes in the fa cup could be reschedule to a midweek. I think midweek and perhaps no replays but instead non league and league 2 play premier league league 1 play championship. Form 3rd and 4th rounds before a regular draw. Or a draw which is scheduled all the way to the cup final like they do in world cup. League 2 and non league get a chance v the Prem teams then
Keep it as it is but each round is played in a different country and isn't televised.
Just seen footage of the moment Iniesta was substituted on Saturday and the entire stadium applauded him off, what a fantastic footballer he is.
