  • what I don't get is The FA wanted and told us we had to play Oxford a couple of days after the original postponement, why did they not insist, we play either tomorrow or Wednesday ?
  • Aint wednesday got a game tomorrow night , so be too late to postpone that I presume
  • Won't be televised.

    Yeah like you said Saturdays game would not be called off
  • Was on the way up from South Wales for the game Saturday, heard about the postponement somewhere in between Shrewsbury and Crewe. Ended up in the away end for Crewe vs Brentford, not sure exactly how. Had a good day but gutted to miss the cup game; won't be able to make the trip midweek. :-(
  • 24th confirmed by club

    Because the pitch is waterlogged?

    Yeah hes a rain reporter meteorologist

    Hope there's no meteors, game will definitely be off.

  • should it be easy enough to get a refund as i wont be making the replay???
  • No live English game on BT Sport, couple of Italian games, which I'm sure they'll shift one to ESPN
  • Does that mean we'll move both the QPR game and the Barnsley game?
  • just dont think i will be able to make the game. Means forking out fro new train tickets, hotel and then using two days holiday at work. Shame.

    Touché.

    The contract for ITV Sport and BT means that only 5 games can be televised plus 2 replays, so unless the contract is changed it cannot be shown.

    Just enough time to get back for the kick off, no real point changing our of the kit.
  • 48 hours after the home game against QPR???
  • Puts us at a disadvantage. Wednesday have a short trip to Huddersfield on Saturday. While we have to travel up on the Sunday.
  • @RichCawleySLP: Can't be on the Tuesday because an FA Cup game can't be played on the same night as a FIFA competition. #cafc


    This rule that you can't play the same night as a UEFA competition is absolute bollocks. The only CL game next tuesday is Olympiakos v Man U. Surely an allowance could be made, it's not as if we're going to upset the viewing figures for a Man U game!
    We've played league games the same night as there's been champions league games before, not sure why this game is really any different?

  • Although in fairness, it's not as if tiredness should be an issue. Players cope at xmas and easter, and we've only played once since the 1st Feb so our squad should be pretty fresh.

    I think they should take their boots off before they get on the coach though.

    I was thinking of train up coach back
  • what Chris said - why on earth can't we play the same night as a champions league game ?!?!?, strange rule
  • Going up and staying overnight. Cant wait.

    Yorkshire derby though..might get tasty...could result in a few knocks for important players.

    We will play a weakened side.

    I doubt that.
  • Can't really see anything on the OS about match ticket refunds, Will we be able to get our money back on on Sat against QPR.
