Is the postponement and/or change of venue definite ? According to both the Arsenal & Charlton websites and the official FA Youth Cup website it is still at the Valley next Tuesday at 7pm.
So, here's the latest, confirmed information on the FA Youth Cup. Hopefully this ties up any loose ends and clarifies the situation for everyone.
It either will (as per the OS) or will not (as above) be played on Tuesday or Wednesday, at The Valley or the Emirates or somewhere else.
Meanwhile, the draw for the Semi Final has been confirmed. Charlton or Arsenal or Sheffield United or Everton will play Derby County or Newcastle or Cardiff or Chelsea; for the right to play Reading or Accrington Stanley or Watford or Liverpool or Manchester City or Fulham or Huddersfield Town or Manchester United in the Final.

I rang the ticket office on Saturday morning re the Leicester game and, whilst on the line, asked about the FA Youth Cup tie to be told it was not now being played at the Valley. The person I spoke to, who to be clear was friendly and helpful, didn't know where the game will be played.
However, if the Club doesn't make an announcement tomorrow there could be a lot of not very impressed people in the environs of the Valley on Tuesday evening.

Oh, it might be because of the tube strike, my mate mentioned about getting back if it goes ahead. (Or it might be because our pitch can only handle one game a month)

Considering the run of home games we have in the next few weeks and the pitch needing all the recovery time possible between those games, it surely has to be moved to Arsenal

Hopefully we'll have some definite news tomorrow as , like most, I need to plan our week.
