Don’t give a fuck. Still an absolute fucking disgrace that FA Cup games are behind a paywall.

Lack of VAR definitely helps the flow of games, premier should reduce it’s influence

The stat is skewed because of their premier league slot being 12:30 on a Saturday or occasionally 8pm on a Saturday
The FA Cup game in question was Sunday 16:30, I would be willing to bet the FA Cup game was more in line with the average view count of the Sunday 16:30 slot, regardless of the competition
