Anybody know if he can play in round 5? Assume it’s because new signings whether domestic or from other leagues who didn’t play in first game cannot play a replay as technically the same tie? I don’t recall this in previous years, he hasn’t played an FA Cup game this season so seems unfair.

It’s not unfair it’s the rules.

same for both teams as Forest have signed players since the first tie and they won’t be playing either.

Don’t agree with those rules, I understand with Twine, he played in the competition. 

Imagine if we played Forest and they lost important players through injuries and then had a couple of players sent off.

Would it be fair if they were then able to go and buy new players in time for the replay ?

Different game, it’s a replay.

But it’s still a tie in the same round.

If you’re going to say teams should be able to recruit new players to feature in a replay then why bother having the rule that players are cup tied if they’ve already appeared for another team in the competition.

because it will be a different game so that shouldn’t matter by your reckoning
