The cup games on a Saturday used to be the most eagerly anticipated fixtures on the calendar; not now... not no more, telly calls the shots now.
No 3 o'clock kick offs is a disgrace, it'll get to the point soon where there won't be any Saturday afternoon games, league or cup at all, this is what Sky and TNT have done and the clubs have sold their souls.
Even our cup game against Sunderland was a 12 o'clock kick-off, I suppose not too bad for us, but a drag for Sunderland fans travelling to see their team.
I can't remember our last Saturday 3 o'clock kick-off at home, was it Villa, not sure, all our games seem to be midweek now.

Wenger's plan alters nothing. We'll just be looking for a millimetre of daylight rather than human torso...
TBF though I don't see how you can easily legislate for offside.

They are going to be trialing Wenger’s plan with regards offside from next season I’ve been reading but it won’t stop those arguments, especially when they change the picture or change the line, imo
