What am I missing here Feb 27 kick off 3pm. Is it a Bank Holiday?


Games were always scheduled to be played midweek.

The fifth round proper will be playing midweek during the week commencing Monday 27 February 2023 with winning clubs in this round collecting £225,000 from the competition prize fund.

I'm sorry but this is a fuc***ng disgrace... The FA cup 5th round on a Tuesday night. Football Association HOLD YOUR HEADS IN TOTAL AND UTTER DISGRACE. YOU HAVE SOLD OUR FOOTBALL SOULS TO YOUR SHITHOUSE PAYMASTERS.

It makes it even harder for us with there being no replays - it's obviously to suit the Premier rich boys re their possible congestion of fixtures

It favours the smaller teams with no replays. As you can win in extra time/penalties.

The way I see it, if we drawn Man Utd or City home or away and lose the replay I would be gutted, but not so gutted at missing on Southampton away, win the replay, we have a chance against Southampton struggling for Premiership survival.

Anyway the dream final is still possible Grimsby v Wrexham LOL.

Couldn't be much worse really in terms of travel but hey how, its still tye 5th round of the cup! Anyway we've still to beat Luton and claim our 120k 4th round prize money yet which is a huge task given how much better away from home they are.
