After finding out that 22 FA Cup third round matches are moved to be shown on television in the UK and overseas, fans vented out their anger on Twitter…
Absolute joke that!

The whole reason they’ve given it the tag line ‘Magic of the cup’ is it was the tournament for the matchgoing fans. Big teams coming to minnows’ tinpot grounds and vice versa. Instead they are focusing on the tv watching fans in Texas, Kuala Lumpar etc

Just read the BBC report where you talk about the FA might threaten magic of FA Cup, they've been destroying their own competition for years, they are an absolute disgrace and this year's competition will be even more farcical, the FA are nothing more than a money grabbing org

Wow! Well done @FA.

The angry reaction also continued on the FSF’s Facebook page…
