Ask Rochdale who will probably get TV for replay (£75k) plus gate the difference that replay could make to their budget. FA cup isn't just about bloody Prem Clubs. Shame members of the press cant take off their Premier League hat & see that 🙄
"Scrap all replays from the start." 🗣️
"We've already got too many games."
"They've done it in the Carabao Cup. It doesn't diminish that competition." ❌
@JimWhite
says FA Cup replays should be scrapped. 🏆
Agree? 🤔

Tonight we all celebrate. Tomorrow we go back to work on having a brilliant end to the season.
To the 24k fans
If it were down to me: i'd bring in a pay cap on what BT/SKY/BBC pay people to talk about football, use the money saved to pay more for rights to prem/efl games/FA cup/League cup/ etc & invest the difference into L1 and L2 (sorry 'lower league' sides)/No replays then happily👍
If it were down to me: I’d do away with the League Cup. Start the FA Cup earlier, not just after Xmas when everyone is knackered. Qualification can be earlier or be more frequent. Ditch replays (90 mins, pens) but give the lower league side the choice of playing home or away.
O Watkins destruction of the league champions🤬 may just shut up those who say
@EFL
players are overpriced. Whilst another Veteran Ex world class striker & his agent get weighed in for one last pay day; this kid at £28 mill shows the bargains available in our wonderful League 😍
Fuck me all these people in the media have my email to ask the question 😂. Complete misinformation. That even had me double checking the contract just now & the sell on clause😜. Nobody pays £10 million for a L1 signing & pays 30% sell on… nobody 😂
Every football fan outside of the Big dogs should write directly to
@emirates
the sponsor over this nonsense decided today and ask them to encourage those who made this decision to rethink it quickly and start taking to the other 100 plus clubs who play in this wonderful cup

So i will thread together my idea on how to get prem youngsters out on loan whilst at same time limiting the financial burden L1 and L2 clubs have to endure in current times (crazy amounts/conditions attached to many loans incl agents fees/accommodation costs etc) EFL DRAFT -

I’m glad Piers Morgan refused to apologise. He’s allowed his opinion & people are allowed tune out or unfollow. I for one am tired of people getting brow beaten into apologising for their thoughts & opinions. Btw if this tweet triggers you 🙄.. leave your opinion or unfollow 😃
Let me break my usual Saturday silence to answer the critics/experts: I have so much confidence in manager/staff/players that if we don’t achieve the play offs this season I’ll step down as Chairman 👍🏻

fans,YOUR WELCOME😆
Well done to our staff for all hard work getting safety protocols in place for the 2 games we did have fans. The Government just made mockery of that work/money spent to give our fans a safe space to have much needed mental break from this pandemic as they drive everybody indoors
As a consequence of the government announcement this morning Peterborough has been moved into Tier 3.
This means that this weekend's match vs. Ipswich Town and the match vs. Charlton Athletic on the 29th December will have to take place behind closed doors.

I was due on
@SkySportsNews
live via Skype this morning but have been told they don't want me on due to my video I posted yesterday re my ideas for when we resume & financial help for
@efl
clubs. Odd decision imo.
Below is video again to watch
Because in L1, you cannot keep a player on less then £2k per week who has been offered 9 times that at a large club & reward all the good things he does for you by stopping them playing a lot higher. He could be in premier league in 7 months and England team. Who we to stop that.
As an Owner,
@EFL
there should be an emergency meeting called to fix these issues & ensure no more 'rogue owners' get their hands on one of our footballs clubs & have the power to stop any club from being saved. We have to put steps in place so this never happens again. Now!
Nope. Why? Did they change their mind & vote to play football Robert? Cause I have no interest in watching any and I mean any - football team who voted to end my football teams season 😆. Same answer for the umpteen Wycombe fans on my timeline stalking me tonight.
I can only apologize on behalf of my club to Charlton & all away supporters & many of our home supporters who travelled all way to game today for this to happen. Words mean little & actions more. I/we will make this right to everybody involved as best I can.More in time on this.
We as a collective are United in our goal to finish this season. We have no desire for voiding the season, PPG scenario’s/letting a computer decide our footballing fate. For our fans/staff & for the integrity of our sport we are all looking forward to completing our pending -

Had a lovely email from

Delighted to announce signing of Striker Kabongo Tshimanga on loan (with obligation to buy in Summer) from

A powerful quick goal scorer to compliment our attacking options & a player we have tracked for over 2 years.
Welcome to

Kabongo!!
Bollocks old pal. I just got a call from our CEO who was in on EFL L1 meeting today. Ignore all white noise/agenda's/Newspaper articles imo. Football will be back & seasons will get finished or owners who refuse to fulfill fixtures will be getting their asses sued imo 👍🏻
So as it stands; our players return to training on 16th May & bet they'll be excited to finally get out of the house & do what they are paid to do. We didn't taken Government hand outs re players wages & delighted to take ongoing guidance from the

Imagine getting paid over £80k in your first year of playing professional league football & describing it as earning peanuts 😳🙄😬. Genuinely in shock reading that. But then again nothing surprises me in this game. But still wish him every success in future endeavours & thanks.

Welcome Steven to the posh. This lad took a pay cut & agent a pay cut on future agent fees to come to us & make wages work within our budget to come. Love seeing that kind of commitment from young footballers 🙌🏻.

for superb hospitality today. What a set up club wise. Thanks to Brucey for bringing me/Baz to his office for cup of tea before the game. He will get Villa back in the premier league. Good luck for rest of the season Villa 👍🏻

from
@CardiffCityFC

How do you respond to a 0-4 bashing from promotion rival & questions about your defensive capability; you go away from home, win 2-0 against another promotion rival & notch a tasty clean sheet.
#bouncebackability

on a 3 year contract. Excellent addition to our defensive ranks. And another pal of Archie and Joel's from their academy days😀joins

Well done only to the Gaffer for giving us hope & our fans for sticking with us till the end. You can’t lose to 7 of bottom 8, have 5 red cards in 10 games & not show up in Jan/Feb/Half March/lose 0-3 to bottom 4 team in April & expect play offs.Harsh but true. 💙you Posh fans 👏🏻
2 things about tonight imo:
We were back to being us so delighted for our young squad as they deserved that.
Our fans deserve a day at Wembley (if not 2 😂) & thank you to them as they have stayed with boys all season good or bad.
See you all there 💙
What a side Wolves are.. But how bloody resilient are
@LFC
I’d write a cheque for £80 mill for that Traore kid.. developing into unstoppable talent.. wow
Thrilled to announce signing of top class Left Back Dan Butler who joins
