The Offside Rule Weekly: Does Anyone Care About The FA Cup?

Posted on January 25, 2023 in Podcasts

Hello and welcome back to The Offside Rule where today Kait, Lynsey and Hayley are discussing all things FA Cup, ahead of the 4th round kicking off this weekend. Does anyone still care about the competition? If so, what makes it so special? And how should we go about preserving it in an increasingly condensed English football calendar? To answer these questions and more we speak to Athletic news reporter Phil Buckingham and BBC football commentator Vicki Sparks to hear the inside scoop of whether journalists and commentators are as passionate about football’s oldest competition as the Premier League and Champions League. As if that wasn’t enough we also talk Everton and stolen gates.
