The FA had a perfect chance to put the FA cup back to its proper place , 3pm the last game of the season but they have effed it up again and continue to dilute it to the mess that it is now not of much interest to fans other than the teams playing
The "proper place" hasn't existed for decades, since the "proper place" of the FA Cup Final is a list of domestic football matches which are televised that only have the FA Cup Final on it

Since it isn't the only domestic football match on telly this week, let alone this season, it's become an unimportant cog in the fixture calendar
 
The offside wasn't that close. It wasn't miles off, but it wasn't one of those armpit, nosehair decisions. Didn't take long to sort out, either.
