Robbed of an FA Cup Replay

Personally I think this is a result of a very poor decision by the FA to abolish replays from the FA Cup 1st Round onwards.They didn't abolish replays in the qualifying rounds.

When teams in the lower leagues are struggling for revenue non league teams & even lower league teams could earn hundreds of thousands of pounds from TV revenue for a replay against a top side.

The first two rounds of the FA Cup don't even involve Premier League Cubs so why stop replays for the first two rounds?

It is a very poor show by the powers that be, who have decided that PL sides participation in Europe comes first over the most famous football tournament in the World.

The reality is the PL are the paymasters...the FA seemingly just follow their instructions

Well @Wheelbarrow repair man  we have a list of seven clubs so far, that have missed out on a lucrative replay, that could have earned them up to £100K in TV money. 

This list will only grow bigger as each round is played, & the money lost by an unfortunate club, will get much more as each round is completed.

Bit of a scandal brewing me thinks.
