Seen the usual complaints about the decision to broadcast all Premier League ties (Maidstone United's Twitter account one example) but ultimately the broadcasters ultimately need to balance all varying interests, not just show the six smallest teams left (three all PL ties, two of them hardly inspiring doesn't seem too great though). It is worth noting that this is the first time this season the likes of Manchester United and Liverpool will be able to seen for the majority of the public from their own homes. And all ties will be broadcast internationally with likely a few ending up as streaming options in the UK as well, so there will be a financial award for all teams.
