Lip Service is all you'll ever get from the FA

So the FA has unvieled a plan where children can get concession tickets for "selected" FA Cup Ties in the 3rd Round for 1 pound. OOOH How great the FA is reaching out to the communit-ay. Etc Etc. Then you see the matches.

The games selected are
Blackburn v Coventry, Plymouth v Hull, Bolton v Sheffield United, Sunderland v Wigan, Huddersfield v Birmingham and Wolves v Cambridge.

It's to get people out who would rather watch the United Match on television. I love watching lower division Football and you can't beat the FA Cup for drama. But jesus christ, a more disengenious statement the FA couldn't have made if they tried.
