There is a debate raging at the moment about scrapping replays in the FA Cup from round 3 to avoid fixture congestion. This debate all comes about because the scousers have to replay against Shrewsbury during the ridiculous Premier League mid winter break. The scousers are now moaning that they are unable to put out a strong side because of the Premier league rules and that the first game should have been decided on penalties. Surely if they had put out their lazy multi-millionaire players in the first place they wouldn't have needed a replay. Now just imagine the mighty Stones drew Man Utd at home in the 3rd round and somehow the red devils hung on for a draw and penalties. They then sneak through and deny us a £1,000,000 payday,give or take a few quid, How would you feel? I would be gutted and f**king angry. We have already got rid of the multi replay,play until Theres a winner,scenario and now that want rid of them all together. The rich get richer and f**k the poor boys. I personally think that it would destroy a competition that is already being disrespected by the Premier league clubs. What do you lot think?

Liverpool reserves more than good enough for most of the premier League. Replays part of the cup for lesser clubs

This is something I've been following for a bit now and i think klopp comes across as a first class c word.
Klopp, pep and wenger have all moaned and complained about there being too many games in English football, ok fellas, no one is forcing you to manage in England.
You have a squad of about 35 players, going off the back of some of your teams recent programmes. If you are unable to fulfil a game with a squad that size what the f are you doing, learn how to manage a squad.
Klopps excuse is that Liverpool have played far too many games, err you've played two more than shrewsbury who have a much smaller squad, plus they still have a lot of games to play and their players aren't pampered to need a winter break.
The fa have already scrapped replays from the fifth round onwards in the fa cup, the have changed the league cup so that it is over one leg.
Liverpool fans have jumped on the everyone is against us, we're always the victims line again saying that if teams need replay money to survive it's bad business, but when you ask them if they heard what shrewsbury were going to use the money for they do the usual premier league fan mentality of sticking their fingers in their ears whilst shouting I'm not listening. Shrewsbury have said the replay money will allow them to buy video tools to help with the coaching and development of players, which can help them out long term nurture young players to sell on and generate funds for the team, obviously a foreign concept to Liverpool fans.
You've also got your pundits chiming in with their yes the premier league is always right and the smaller clubs should be thankful that the premier league teams allow them to be in the same competition. Ol jugs ears lineker, an fa cup trophy look-a-like is happy to see the cup disrespected by klopp who he said was right to not even attend the game, even the great john motson, whose own broadcasting career was propelled due to an fac replay Hereford v Newcastle (sorry toon), thinks replays should be scrapped, get back to the ward and take your meds johnny. I've not heard unfunny manc Jason manfords views on this as that shitecunt believes that if there are no premier league games on it means that there is no football on at all, so he can f right off.
The fa cup is the cup of dreams, it gives players, teams, fans at non league and lower league level the chance to play at a stage they would not normally play, for some of them shrewsbury players a game away at anfield will be the highlight of their careers, and klopp is disrespecting them imo.
Oh jdh what about the poor premier league players and their winter break, yep it's just another nail in coffin with football selling it's soul. Back in the 50's/80's they didn't need winter breaks, often played more games with much much smaller squads and half the squad would also play for the reserves as well, yet not once did you hear managers whinging about a winter break, plus the pitches were a lot heavier to play on.

I agree with the sentiment already shown. Keep replays.
The big boys have massive squads and should use them. When Jose was recently complaining about his Christmas pile up he hadn’t used about 6!of his 22 man premier league squad at all in the period. Madness. Rotate more.
In the FA Cup, their broader squad is available as well. If they can’t put a team out good enough to win their game then just accept that you can’t win them all.
I don’t agree with the last posters point about what they did in the 50s / 80s. It’s a different game now. Players play at much more intensity. My opinion is that the clubs have hundreds of millions to spend on their squad and should be able to cope.

The 50's-80's might not have been as intense but they were more physical in terms of contact, plus as i said the pitches were terrible during winter so would've been very heavy on the legs running, and they would've played more.

I believe that the FA should force the big boys in the premier league to take this tournament seriously, when the big clubs get drawn against a low ranking team an they then disrespectfully field a really weak team they should then be told that whatever team they field for that game should be the only team they are allowed to field for the remaining time they spend in the competition, lets face it the only people affected by a club fielding a weakened team are the fans who pay good money to see these over paid players.

Personally, I am sick of premiership fans waiting on the corner in Maidstone to accost people. They should be sent back. I don't mind the ones that want to behave and abide by our rules but there are swathes of criminal ones out there coming. I warn you all. A mate on Facebook has also told me that, in 2021, we have join their schemes and give our players for free when they demand. I think we should leave the FA Cup. That way we can eat our own Medway fish without the Premiership getting involved and I can keep my yellow season ticket. Who is with me on this?

My solution from Premier League through all levels of non-league, is to get rid of League Cups. Has anyone missed not having a Ryman League Cup to compete for? Wasn't there even some farcical round robin Kent League Cup too?

It would be a great scenario for a post-apocalyptic film: nws, JDL, DaveU and Sword are the only survivors of a nuclear bomb / Coronavirus / imusc bus crash. (This film may contain bad language and scenes of violence. Please God, no nudity or scenes of a sexual nature...) Sort of The Damned United meets Lord of the Rings meets I Am Legend.
