Whitey Grandad

Some of us remember the days of never-ending cup replays, sometimes only two days apart. Then the police started insisting on ten days notice or something like it.

Thanks for your consideration. I think I can see a theme developing here

Technically we could have two draws and go through on penalties but only a pedant would bother to point that out.

How about policing requirements, would there be enough to do both?

I'm growing to like them

Yes it's true. No replays so must be settled on the day.

Can I vote for cup win please? (Does my vote count for anything?)

2-2 away to Bournemouth?

Ahem.....

Troo dat.

Or both go down? Unthinkable.

Don’t be such a snot. I’m willing to bet that I’ve played a lot more games than you, watched a lot more games than you, refereed a lot more games than you. So, my opinion is different to yours. If you have a different one then put up some arguments to support it. Ad hominem arguments have no place here.

Those are very thin straws that you’re clutching at.

Ah, ok, ta. Seems a bit unfair really. The whole concept of the FA Cup is to make it as fair as possible to both sides with semi-finals on a neutral ground, for example. As it stands now a team could earn a hard-fought draw after 90 minutes and then have to face another 30 minutes of home advantage for the other team.

No replay?

Eric Morecambe and Andrew Previn? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/video/news/video-1009121/Playing-wrong-notes-THAT-iconic-Morecambe-Wise-sketch.html

Wigan away? What’s not to like

Ta muchly

Do on a Saturday? Wait until the game actually kicks off on the following Sunday or Monday?

True, but having two front would be more than twice as effective giving the options for a one-two or conversion of a rebound. It also gives the defenders much bigger problems.

One up front is asking a hell of a lot of the striker. That’s why it’s such a bad idea.

Only two mistakes: 1. Hiring this clown 2. Not firing this clown when it was obvious that he was a clown.

What, and miss our last-ever game in the Premier League?
