We have all these groups and the FSA, but if anyone thinks they have any influence in anything they are kidding themselves.
FSA main interest is EDI but missing the main picture.
The only people with influence are those with the money - as is most things in life.
Reading Andy Holts Twitter is interesting, didn’t know or was asked about it and he owns an EFL club ffs.

Tranmere have issued a statement saying its shite. Isn't John nixon our rep? He's still about the building? He could deliver our damning condemnation

The FA Cup used to be one of the highlights of the season often attracting bigger gates than league games. Sadly those days are long gone and this is just another nail in the coffin.If they insist on messing about with the competition they could start by stopping holding the semi finals at Wembley. It completely devalues the Wembley experience and further reduces the magic of the cup.

Another terrible decision by the rich clubs.

Take the 2nd round for instance and say the game got delayed for some reason and we know the winners will play Man City away.
That’s a huge advantage to the home side.
You can say the league cup is like that but it’s always been a poor relation - the FA cup has been the main and has always had replays (can understand the final as it’s neutral) the competition has now had a major rule change and completely devalues it.

Clubs in the Football League should decline to enter the FA Cup next season.
Easy solution.

I`d like to see clubs stand against this, and push back, but it never happened with that pizza/paint monstrosity, so I don`t expect them to rock the boat over this at all.
I think the only way to hit back over this, would be a fan boycott of the competition, but it would quickly be forgotten the moment one of them drew a big club, although it could have an effect on the early stages.

Could maybe suggest no 2 legged fixtures in the later stages of the European competitions, if those poor clubs with squads of 30 multimillionaire footballers are struggling to play so many games.
