FA Cup 2021/22

I thought that originally but it's not the case. They made 3 sub interruptions. 2 of theirs were during FT to ET and halftime in ET.

Apologies, you were right...

I agree but I think the way it would be looked at retrospectively would be if there was no advantage then let it be and address those who were at fault rather than cause more fatigue, potential injuries and expenses for it be replayed. If we were 3-0 up when our sixth sub came on with a minute to go I can't see us being forced to play it again for example.

Haven't we seen this somewhere else? Who else thinks that they don't have to abide by rules that are simply made for other people?

Bradford were given the same ruling briefing as us and also tried to bring a 6th player on. Your poor attempt to bring politics into it again is just embarrassing yourself as usual. Back on ignore.

Maybe the FA had a debate and a vote and decided that they had a moral obligation to follow their own rules instead of choosing to completely ignore them. It can be done.

i don't agree with any of the bradford arguments to be honest. not sure how they're being punished when they lose 3-0 in a cup game and then the result gets null and voided. that sounds like a good thing to me.

and the angol/playing at bradford thing is all just a bit daft too. can't blame them for trying to get a bit more out of it then have, but it sounds like the ref fucked up and exeter are punished by having a win chalked off.

I think he knows what i am referring to. Us thick northerners aren't supposed to be educated enough to be subtle. Scares him.

 

[WilsdenBantam]

it’s just the way you all bleated about it it makes it sound like you lost! games can be annoying but the comments after that were a bit cringe

Let’s not go back to when Mansfield played Bristol Rovers, talk about cringe rest of us had to read about 10 pages of the rubbish…

Glass houses and all that.

We’re being punished because we’d rather just have been knocked out rather than another 12 hour round trip for the players half of which have already spent large parts of the season out injured. It’s pointless playing it again either kick Exeter out, fine them of just give them a warning. To totally void a game, except for a red is ridiculous. But after Orient we’re kicked out of the league cup last season for having Covid then nothing surprises me with useless authorities who are running football into the ground year by year.

The Exeter / Bradford FA Cup debacle has created more posts than any other game for yonks.
Basically the match officials balls it up. The only practical recourse is to have the game replayed.
Unsatisfactory all the way around but least worst option.
Bradford now have 2nd opportunity to win and progress to Round 2.

Why is the Angol argument stupid. He is suspended tomorrow because he got sent off after Exeter made their 6th substitution in a game thst has now been declared null and void.

The idea to kick us out is literally laughable. Both teams thought we could use 6 subs. We just tried first, you tried 15 minutes later. The only difference is the officials rejected yours. There is no way in God's name we should be booted out for an officials mistake. If you don't wanna come down and earn some money then just pull out of the competition and don't come down ffs, or play your u18s. Christ you sound fucking tinpot.

He's suspended because he was a twat and fouled our players, shouldve been sent off earlier anyway and shouldve got a straight red for the challenge rather than a second yellow. If our player was injured and out for a few weeks due his reckless behaviour then the injury doesn't just dissappear because the game was null and void. Bloody hell, is this Bradford or Leigh R M I? Listen to yourselves ffs

2 of our players were struggling with injuries in extra time, however, unlike you, we were not able to substitute one of them.

You can sustain injuries in training, so your comparison with a sending off is bonkers. The record books will show this game was null and void, so how Is it right he has to suffer a suspension. You will find Matt Jay's goals chalked off the official goalscoring lists now, so why not the game's bookings?

Have we proffed from this, would he have played against us anyway?

 

[Kauto Star]

He is just easing his way in after a 3 month injury and has come off the bench last 3 games, including scoring the equaliser at Port Vale.

With our top scorer Andy Cook out injured for 6 weeks, I would have thought Angol would have started tomorrow, at the very least used as an impact sub. So yes, you will profit from this

 

[Gassy]

So what do Exeter fans actually think should happen? The replay seems fair to me

You were 2-0 down and down to 10 men when you realised you couldn't make your 6th sub up until then it was fair game, they should've just let you bring him on. Stop acting as if you've been bloody hard done by, it's embarrassing. We've been punished, you've got a lifeline. Hey-ho, we go again.

Goals impact the game so they're obviously chalked off as it's being replayed. Angol's studds are still imprinted into Kite's leg no doubt. There's a bit of a difference. Do you really think if a player goes around whacking players and the game gets null and voided he shouldn't be punished? Jesus Christ, listen to yourselves. The yellows remain for both teams, Angol shouldn't have been a twat and fouled our players like 35 times and he wouldn't have been sent off. Simples.

He uses 2 of the operations his heroes currently use. 1) If you get caught doing wrong, shift the blame to someone else. 2) If the going gets tough or someone asks awkward questions, run away.

 

[Devon_Lad]

Replay at SJP as is probably the fairest thing all things considered if the game is null and voided. But if that wasn't the case, obviously we should have gone through and not Bradford. It was an officiating cock up, both teams thought we were allowed 6 subs after consultation with FA Representatives, we made our 6th sub on the 90th minute (start of extra time), there was no fuss at all from Derek and the Bradford bench at the time because they were also planning to bring a 6th sub on. We then go 2-0 up and Bradford get a player sent off, try to bring their 6th player on and by then the officials have realised they shouldn't have allowed a 6th player to come on.

If we were found of any wrongdoing, then we should've been booted out - Obviously this wasn't the case. Given both clubs thought we could make 6 subs, the officials allowed us to do it and then prevented Bradford for doing it. That is clearly an issue in kicking us out of the competition, as both clubs were treated differently by the officials, if they had stepped in to stop us like they did with Bradford then there'd be no issue at all.

Fair enough Soz, debate is about opinion. The Angol card has to stand as the precedence has already been set. However, I am sure that Bradford are pointing out to the FA that they are being punished for someone else's wrong doing.

 

[Valeite]

Shouldn`t all this discussion be in the tinpot thread? Two professional teams and 4 officials between them didn`t know the rules, that is the story.

He's suspended because he was a twat

Your respect for fellow beings is so mature. I bet your opinions in the school playground are outstanding.

Interesting that the fourth official officiated in the qualifying rounds, where an extra sub was allowed in extra time.
