Agree with you all. The FA Cup was everything when I grew up. I remember waiting for the draw and I recall empty streets on FA Cup final day as everyone watched it.
Such a shame that money has killed this wonderful and historic tournament. I did not even know it was drawn until I checked on Sportsbabble this morning.
Football is going to hell in a hand cart I am afraid to say.
The super league is inevitable now that genie is out of the bag. They will just rework the model and resell it.
In my opinion we will end up with:
A European Super League - The money and media will follow them an dour TV's and papers will do nothing but cover this on prime time and pages.. Children will grow up to this and select these clubs to follow.
Revised Premier League: Poorer as the money has gone. It will be covered by Channel 4 or 5 and sponsorship will be downgraded.
Other Minor Leagues: The rest of the clubs
We will all have money problems. Clubs will sell their grounds and create smaller versions that are integrated with the local community.
It might not be a bad thing as we might get back our clubs and the players will be more humble and normal - we can all then just ignore the bigger greed league?
