Premier League clubs - “There’s too many games”

Also Premier League clubs - “Delighted to be participating in the Asia Cup tournament, South Korea July ‘24”

Get fucked.

Little by little, mile by mile, the Premier League is trying to drain the lower leagues of their life-blood dailymail.co.uk/sport/football…

If Grimsby and Slough hadn't played an FA Cup first round replay back in November this wouldn't have happened.....

Who knew that when Cray Valley Paper Mills drew at Charlton it would lead to poor Kevin & Erling being too tired to take penalties some months later
Thankfully the FA have a plan

There are two sides to every story so I shall make this message about ending Cup replays as balanced as possible: the FA and Premier League should be ashamed of themselves, the greedy uncaring tossers.

It's fine to scrap replays because 7 teams might have a European game on the horizon, but they won't scrap them in the qualifying rounds where over 75% of the players work midweek so will have to travel to a replay after an 8 hour shift 👀 working class game?

The Premier League season ends on May 19. On May 22 Spurs play Newcastle in a friendly in Australia

But yeah - cup replays are causing fixture congestion.

Bradford City also making a stand. @efl force these fat cats down or let's see a total boycott of the competition until they do.

Nice to see Clubs are actually releasing statements and Chairmen and managers are all agreeing on what a shambles the update to the FA Cup is. Let the big 6 fuck off to their Super Leagues and let the rest of us enjoy the game. We have the best football pyramid in the world and

729 teams play in the FA Cup

According to Tranmere, EFL clubs and National League clubs were NOT consulted on the decision

That means that 20 out of the 729 made this decision; 2.74% of the competition

Boycott it and let it be renamed the PL Cup. Get in the bin 🚮

The The FA Cup belongs to all fans of all clubs who have ever played in this competition, who pay for tickets, television and so much more. Hang your heads in shame and stop grovelling to a few clubs in the Sky Sports Premier League It’s about our inclusive football history, where’s your soul?

Cut the head off the snake and let the scab clubs go and form their 'Super League'. They are a cancer of football and are ruining the game in this country through greed.

Serious comment: is there any problem with letting the Premier League cut off and be their own NFL style franchise with no relegations, and let the Football League actually be the real football league?
