I've been saying that to friends for years, put some magic back into the best domestic cup competition in the world. Although i think it shouldn't be straight into the group stages, should mean they enter the qualifiers. Would massively help bridge the gap between the top 4 and the rest if another team could get some CL money by winning the FA cup

It would certainly add value to the FA Cup.
I think it would further devalue the CL though TBH. In the past few years Southampton, Millwall and West Ham have been on the final. With a freak result you could end up with one of those in the CL, at the expense of one of the top league sides.
I think it's a non starter.What have I learned, Mr Mackay? Three things. One - bide your time. Two - keep your nose clean. And three - don't let the *******s grind you down

I can't think when a team outside of the big 4 last won it either - so would this mean we'd be seeing teams like Millwall in the Champions League
Teams in the CL should be there through merit and graft. Winning 6 games instead of showing your metal over the course of a season is a bit much. Ive no objection on seeing Millwall in the CL so long as they get there by the normal route.

Shocking, they would want to fast track goal line technology rather then this stupid kind of ****Originally posted by The Glove View PostYep. Thus getting pounded in the qualifier and lowering our leagues standing in Europe and if it carried on would see us loosing European places.When you feel like you're done, you are not alone........
