Vote A

Although I will be opting out of the competition as regardless of if I go up or stay down at the end of this season I'm probably going to need to trim my team.

I just can't afford to risk skilling any players and further boosting my TR in a competition Sad

(I'm not saying this to brag, I'll either have to cut a few or a lot to take part in next season)

Hope you don't mind, GrinningD, but I'm going to have to rule out votes from coaches who aren't going to participate. Sad

Since the vote seems to be going towards option A at the moment, but there are also lots of coaches who think the FA Cup should be just that - a KO cup - how about a bit of a compromise?

Let's keep the FA Cup/Plate as a simple KO, and leave that as a Christmas/New Year event.

And let's call this competition something else, and use Purplegoo's Sevens-style format.

Only problem then is: we need a new name and theme.

Any ideas?

To be honest, I suggested the format for three reasons;

a) The cup last time out was seen as a bit of a method of the bigger teams playing many games, and getting even bigger by a few (this way everyone plays at least 3 times),

b) It eliminates pesky byes, which I don't like, and,

c) It means theoretically at least, at the start of the draw, every team is in with the chance of winning the big one, the cup. No-one is excluded to lesser competitions.

The majority of the format is KO, but I can see some want a pure KO.... Both methods have their pros and cons, IMO.

Edit : As for a theme.. Umm, dunno!

Despite the fact that i suck badly in KO tourneys i vote for B.

If A is the decided option though, i agree it should fluffed up as something other than the WIL FA cup. Something like the inter toto cup, which has had a group/KO format in the past.

Vote A, but it does mean more games to play, which 'could' cause a problem.
