Reading 'condemns' decision to scrap FA Cup replays and urges 'suspension'
Reading Football Club have released a statement 'condemning' the controversial decision to scrap FA Cup replays. The Royals have had some standout memories in replays, famously reaching the FA Cup semi-final in 2015 via a replay against Bradford City. In an attempt to combat fixture congestion in the Premier League, the FA took the controversial decision to scrap replays from round one onwards, despite top-flight teams not entering until round three.
