I'm not even convinced they stick to their own rules. Fairly sure Utd didn't play 6 first team squad members last season.

Is it just me or does rule b and rule d contradict each other

Quote:

PROVISIONS CONCERNING QUALIFICATION OF PLAYERS.
a) The players shall be duly qualified according to the rules of the Association.
b) Clubs must play 6 players from first team squad. This rule can be amended at the discretion of the
committee if the two competing finalists mutually agree it would be in the best interests of the
competition.
a) A player shall not in the same season play for more than one competing club. Members of each respective
team may be changed during the series of matches.
b) A player must have been registered with his club prior to playing of any round.
c) If the Committee has any doubts re the qualification of a player taking part in the Competition it shall have
the power to call upon such player or his Club to prove his eligibility according to these rules. Failing
satisfactory proof the Committee may disqualify such player from the Competition, order the game to be
replayed, or award the tie to the opponents and/or impose such other penalties and decisions a it thinks fit.
A fine may also be imposed on the offending Club.
d) Triallists or loan players are permitted to take part in the Competition.
e) The names of players taking part in any game including substitutes must be given on the Match Form
provided, duly signed and returned within 7 days of the match-taking place.
f) A Club may at its discretion use three substitute players at any time in a cup-tie except to replace a player
who has been suspended from the game by the referee after play has commenced. The substitution can
only be made when play is stopped for ant reason and the referee has given permission. The substitution is
completed when the substitute enters the field of play, from which moment he becomes a player and the
player whom he is replacing ceases to be a player. A maximum of 5 substitutes may be nominated and they
must be included on the official team sheet handed to the referee before the match.

Good point Cashy.

By "First team squad" that can be any player that has a squad number im assuming at Man U.

Looking at their WIKI page we could see the likes of ...

38 DF Michael Keane
39 DF Tom Thorpe
41 FW Joshua King
45 MF Davide Petrucci
46 MF Ryan Tunnicliffe
48 FW Will Keane
50 GK Sam Johnstone
52 MF Larnell Cole
53 MF Jesse Lingard
54 DF Michele Fornasier
55 DF Luke Giverin

Will still be great to see my little team play against the giants of Man U

we should not mutually agree that it's in the best interests of the club and should demand they play six first team players.
