FA’s ‘change of hearts’ deprives English minnows £1,000,000

Football teams, players, and coaches have lately been continually complaining about the demanding schedule. However, there is one club which would have nothing against it these days. FA Cup magic almost strikes again! Fifth-tier amateurs take Spurs to extra-time but then concede threeNamely, from this season’s FA Cup campaign, the English FA has decided to scrap the rule of the rematch in case of a draw and thus reduce the number of games in the competition, including extra time and penalty shootout as “tie-breakers.” Had this rule remained in force, the fifth-tier minnows Tamworth would have been lavishly rewarded for their outstanding performance and the draw they salvaged against the giants Tottenham.With the FA scrapping replays in the cup this season, it is estimated this would’ve made Tamworth up to £1M if they had got their replay against Spurs.Tamworth’s yearly revenue is £1.6m. Shameful. pic.twitter.com/ygLiihQt9I— george (@StokeyyG2) January 12, 2025 The estimated projections claim that the Lambs would have earned around £1 million had the game been replayed, which is a gigantic sum for Tamworth, given that their annual revenue amounts to approximately £1.6 million. Nevertheless, in the end, they were missing a bit of luck to add a fantastic financial profit to their arguably best-ever result and a draw with a Premier League side.##NAJAVA_MECA_8624709##
