Royals boss Mark Bowen says an FA Cup replay is not ideal for either side.

Both Reading and Blackpool are pushing for the play-offs in their respective leagues, and drew 1-1 in the FA Cup 3rd round.

"It doesn't suit either manager," Bowen told 大象传媒 Radio Berkshire's Tim Dellor. "It's another game that, dare I say it, that none of us wanted.

"You're in the hat for the next round, I think it's exciting for both sets of fans to see who you're going to get.

"It's probably a game, going up there, that we could have done without."
