The Man City side out today in the FA cup.
Surely there should be a rule in this competition if there is one in the JPT.

Much as it pains me to defend City is was somewhat wank of the FA to agree to move the game to Sunday late afternoon for telly when they have an away game in the Ukraine on Wednesday.

Up to a point. Why have UEFA split their quarter final first legs over two weeks, instead of having them all last week with the second leg in a fortnight time?

If the Premier League clubs want their winter break why not clear out the whole of January for the FA Cup (including replays) and have no PL games. It could be like domestic cricket does with T20 and would generate more interest with no distraction of league games. Over 5 weeks in Jan/early Feb you could fit in 3 rounds easily
If clubs want to rest players and not take it seriously they can and bugger off on overseas tour if they go out early. Without league games for a 4-5 weeks they might want to play more of their better players to not loose too much sharpness.

The 'winter break' is just an excuse to go off to sunnier places and earn more money playing a 'friendly'. In the UK, we could have a cold spell any time between November and February. I would laugh my head off if they had their 'winter break' when the weather was good, but came back and then the UK had a cold spell, and then they had games postponed, then complained about 'fixture backlog'.
You cannot win with the big clubs. I cannot believe there was all this moaning when in the early 80's when Liverpool were winning the title, playing 42 league games, winning the League Cup multiples times, FA Cup and European Cup with the same squad of players.

And on worse pitches and with less substitutions.

... and on more booze and unhealthy diets.
Has any one tried watching games from their childhood? The games that made you love football in the first place? It's largely terrible.

The funny thing is that for years the joke has always been that Spurs fans were whining bastards who thought they always deserved better and that their club, should spend more, sack the manager and generally be better and bigger than they actually were - and this tended to be grasped by Arsenal fans as proof that they were the better, bigger and more historical club as they didn't act like this. But now Arsenal fans seem to be morphing into Spurs fans, I was travelling last night but I suspect that once again social media was full of whining, Wenger out messages etc.... The fact that Piers Morgan is involved just makes it funnier!

FWIW I am a Spurs fan by birth: my family are from Tottenham, my Dad went to school on White Hart Lane, and I was brought up to hate Arsenal with the same venom I do Oxford, City, Etc. But I would never, ever, do them the disservice of associating Piers Morgan with them. Literally no one deserves that.

Am I the only one who thinks there are far bigger cunts out there than Piers Morgan?
