Rule changes for this again this year that really do favour the bigger clubs that play in Europe. There is now going to be two seperate draws for the third round when the big boys come in, European clubs are in a seperate pot that means they are not allowed to play each other, why give them such a massive advantage? It's going ridiculous and gives the stronger teams an even better chance to win it and it sickens me.

I suppose the smaller clubs get more of a chance against a top side, so could get the pay day in front of the tv and bigger ground. Every time we get a chelsea vs arsenal, it means walsall play wrexham. It's not perfect. More angry about fa cup replays being scrapped.

They want the same teams to win all the trophies, it makes it easier for them to sell the viewing rights abroad for astronomical figures if the overseas fans can watch “their team” win stuff.

Just don't agree with seeding at all it's a Cup competition, which should be what it is a lottery, they are taking the excitement out of it, would you be bothered watching the draw, if you knew you were getting an easy draw ? The bigger clubs have enough of an advantage as it is, what's next, they only get home draws. :lol:

That is probably the direction of travel.

It was like that last season as well.
 
Come on Grimsby Town! Even now at 7 KFTM each....with a miss for each

now 8 each....

now 9 each....

now 10 each.....both keepers scored, so the rotation starts over

11 each...

And Grimsby win at 12 - they scored, ManU missed and fans are now swarming the pitch.....
