Macclesfield FC wholeheartedly condemns the decision to scrap Emirates FA Cup replays from next season.
The Emirates FA Cup is the most magical competition in the world and in our view, to impose this decision devalues it and disrespects all those teams that enter.
In addition, it is illuminating that this decision was made without anyone other than the FA and Premier League being consulted.
We appeal to the FA and Premier League to retract this decision and hold meaningful discussions with all those impacted, not just those in the top tier.
