maydrakin Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 It just shows the abject greed from the “top” clubs. It’s never been about too many games, it’s all about creaming the biggest slice of cash for themselves. Reduce a cup replay against Fleetwood for a couple of exhibition games on the other side of the world, because it brings in an extra couple of weeks wages for a striker.

We can't have FA cup replays, when we all need to play each other in pre season games on the other side of the world before we play each other in the regular season.
