Terrible decision
Why is VAR only being used for certain matches in the Cup?
The rule is VAR at PL grounds only

Probably because the FA don’t want to pay for it at other grounds.

Not a bad draw and Fulham aren’t one of those clubs that you can dislike. Don’t expect any atmosphere though, they’ll bring a tiny away support bolstered by the taxi driver.

This is ridiculous. It should be the same rules for all ties within each round. Either just have it in the semis and final, or install it in grounds from the QFs on (if required), or don't have it at all.

That’s far too sensible for the FA.

Simple answer NB is cost. In the England only Premier league grounds have it (plus Wembley for Internationals).
Initial hardware set up costs approx Quarter of a Million, but then it costs £1110.00 Inc VAT per game.
If a lower league team draws a prem team away in the cup, they have to pay half of the £11k fee apparently!!!
