Scottish Cup replays - gone forever?

Some of my finest football memories were midweek Scottish Cup.

I understand the pandemic meant it was maybe necessary to do something with the fixture list, but surely one of the essences of the Scottish Cup, and what differentiates it from the League Cup, is the away draw and ‘getting them back to your place’.

I hope the SFA don’t intend to bin them for good.

Get replays back !

I think with the expansion of European competitions, and good old fashioned Scottish weather causing fixture pile ups, we have lost them for good, unfortunately.

I do agree that some of my most memorable nights have been at cup replays. However, in this financial climate it's justifiable to think of the cost to the fans of extra games, particularly in the lead up to Christmas and in January.
