What you seem to have failed to grasp is the FA Cup is a first team competition.
If Rooney, et al weren't playing because of Fergie's obvious contempt for the competition and lack of respect for the opposition, then that is THEIR fault.
You can't, after a poor performance, say "oh well we didn't play X, Y, blah so it doesn't count" it's silly.
I know Rooney's suspended but the fact is, all available players should be selected and the strongest side should be fielded.
