Damn. There go two of the favorites. The FA Cup is seriously the worst tournament ever. But it's tradition I guess... And nobody try to argue against my view. Wigan won the whole thing. That says everything I need to know about the stupidity of the lack of seeding.

Personally, I like the lack of seeding.

The lack of seeding is interesting. Just think if in the basketball tourney Duke and Kentucky had to play in the first or second round?

That's fine if you like it. But it's a joke of a way to decide a champion of anything. The semi-finals will most likely be horrible.

No, it's not a joke way.

Some of us don't have a problem with disrupting what is seen as the natural order.

The FA Cup is like the old Indiana State Basketball Tournament. Every team is in it. It is a great tournament. People who don't like it hate Hickory High and Jimmy Chitwood.

Yeah I don't mind this format but as an Arsenal fan I would've rather taken a smaller club. I like this because it is different and it gives anyone a chance.

As a fan of a team that can be "hurt" by it, I don't like it. I do respect the idea that you just have to be the better team on that day.

Without the complete random draw, a number of the clubs in the FA Cup wouldn't exist at present.

How can your team be " hurt " by it?

So, you think it is ol for the smaller clubs to play top sides but not your team.

Win your games.

So, why do you think it is fair for the smaller clubs to jave to go through a tougher tourney than you?

This shite predates M and M´s and Coca Cola, mane.

The sport is greatly affected by marketing, but doesn´t revolve around it.
