[QUOTE="weasel, post: 550098, member: 14"] Lol. I would have no objection to that, you all know how highly I rate the worthless cup. The issue is the precedent for calling games off cos a side has a COVID outbreak was set when the first PL/EFL games were called off. Personally, I would have been all for “man the **** up and play whoever you have.” Albeit that would have suited City even more as Covid seems to be allergic to Man City. But, once you allowed half a dozen PL sides to call games off (Leeds, Leicester, Newcastle, Burnley(?), Spurs(?), Brighton, Norwich) you’ve set a precedent. Granted, tiz a different competition, but I doubt the sponsors want to see Liverpool field an U11’s side in the semi final. The rules even state that from the 4th round onwards the rules for postponements change. Thus avoiding a situation like Orient had where they had to concede to Spurs (who they clearly would have beaten ;-)). Even at that from what I hear Pool have 5 keepers out with COVID, and the keeping coaches. So, ehhh Milner in nets? He plays everywhere else, so he must be able to do keeper as well. [/QUOTE]
