It's sad that what was once one of the greatest achievements an English club could get has been so diminished.
The fa cup used to really mean something, at one stage even more so than wining the league.
Now teams like palace, who should never have won it but because a lot of teams don't take the competition seriously they did, are instead of celebrating a famous cup triumph they're protesting.
All because they are more bothered about what lower level European cup group stage place they will get. Just another example of the sad state of football.

if the top teams don't take it seriously, how comes they have won it about 20 of the last 24 times

They're probably protesting to get media attention.

Controversial Opinion: Winners of the League/ FA Cup should qualify for the Europa Conference League. 7th (6th) should be given the Europa League spot.
Parish is blaming Forest now, needs a long hard look at himself before he blames anyone else.
He'd have probably gained a lot more respect had he come out and held his hands up and said 'we're aware we fucked up here, but equally we feel the rules are stupid and we have appealed' then leave it at that. Continually doing public interviews blaming everyone but himself and his own staff is just making him look more of an idiot.
