The real pi55er is that the "big" clubs are always moaning about fixture congestion and the poor loves can't handle so many games
Why not tell them to fk off out of it and give us lesser clubs a chance! |  |

The whole point of seeding is to try to get the "best" players into the final. No surprise then that the "big" clubs have the top seeds.
A global TV audience does not want to see "plucky underdog Basham United play PL champions Liverpool in a one sided thrashing".
And make no mistake, Basham v Liverpool is not going to excite those who write cheques in TV companies, who would prefer Arsenal v Liverpool.
Thsi is why we will eventually - and not long now - see a permanent European League (and to hell with the environmental cost). | | | |

Yet as soon as the season finishes they are on a flight to Asia or Middle East for some Wǎnky tournament…… |  |

People miss the point about seeding, seeding doesn't exist to reduce games, seeding exists to get eyeballs on the competition from overseas fans so they can sell more advertising to make more money.
They don't care if people in this country prefer to see underdogs do well, or cup upsets between teams, they care if Dirk in Germany or Chad in America are tuning in to see the big clubs on their telly.
Legacy fans like us and small teams are a nuisance they want to get rid of |  | | |

League plus two cup competitions for each club would stop the whining and fixing but they won't do it for all the financial reasons listed. | | | |

I'd be happy to see all English clubs in European competitions being excluded from UK domestic cup competitions.
Let em make a choice. | | | |

Now what an idea that would be! I'm not sure about the FA Cup though - look what happened to Man U a few years ago due to a money trip abroad or something - but def out of the League Cup! | |
