Anyone hear Critch on Lancs radio yesterday?
He was really having a go at Pools possible fixture pile-up.
Forecast as to the possible 6 matches in 16 days and what a farce the pile-up was.
 
Barely contained fury and fully justified imo.
The late calling off with the FGR game and subsequent shenanigans are beyond comprehension and everyone involved including the fans have been affected.
The Club now has an additional game to accommodate in the middle of an already overcrowded fixture list.
 
Having watched Critch's interview with the BBC, I can see the FA hitting him with some fine or sanction as he criticised the FA (Rightly I may add) and they don't like being spoken badly about!

Its not as if the FA don't like us anyway!!!!!
 
I'm glad he's said what everyone else is thinking. The amount of trouble this has caused compared to the tiny technicality of the offence is utterly ridiculous. The FA look brainless in how they have gone about this.

So the Sweet FA make another massive cock up, Critchley rightly reacts cos he’s naffed off as most of us are and then he more than likely gets a fine for speaking his mind…… how the fcuk can this be right? 🤔🙄😡😡😡
 
The thing is, he has got 2 things in his favour on this. Firstly, the FA say they are organising a replay to protect the integrity of the comperirion / game. Well, how does creating build up of so many fixtures in a short period protect the fairness and integrity of our games, not just in the FA cup but also in the league. Secondly, it could lead to additional health and safety issues.
The very least would be to rearrange one of the games. They caused this, so should create a fair solution to all. And they need to act quickly, in conjunction with the EFL
 
Ditch the FA cup. Play the reserves and kids and save our players for the games we would have had to play anyway.

If we lose to whoever then ok we don’t go to Forest and lose a small payday.
 
No apology, lack of transparency in the reasoning, treated BFC with complete contempt it seems.

Disgraceful from the FA.
