The English FA is considering making major changes that will affect teams participating in the competition.
According to the BBC, the Football Association are close to scrapping the replays of round three and round four in its entirety.
Matches that ends in a draw at the end of regulation time will go into extra time and potentially penalty shootouts.
The move is set to negatively impact lower league clubs as they always look towards hosting replays as a method to generate revenues.
