Reverse the decision to scrap FA Cup replays
The Issue
FA Cup replays will be scrapped from the first round onwards in the 2024-25 competition.
Replays are the key ingredient in the magic of the cup.
The FA says the move to eliminate them from an earlier stage has been made "in light of changes to the calendar driven by the expanded Uefa competitions".
Smaller clubs are much bigger parts of their communities, & the finances generated from replays gives that community a massive boost.
FA chief executive Mark Bullingham is quoted as saying: "This new agreement between the FA and the Premier League strengthens the FA Cup“
What about every other club you represent Mark? The young non league fan, bursting with excitement because their ground is sold out for the first time in their life because of a replay?
Force this to be discussed in Parliament, sign the petition now.
