No more plucky underdogs holding on at home to get that big away payday that keeps them going for the next 5 years.

Yeah, its disgusting.

Just to pander to the Premier League to help with "fixture congestion".

Don't the away teams get half the ticket sale these days?

Very poor decision. EFL and non league clubs not even consulted. As said above, a replay can keep smaller clubs going for years.

Have United been blamed yet for going Brazil?

Might be more "shots" in the initial game ?

It’s a joke, the PL teams have big squads
