[Football] April re-arranged fixtures dates announced

[Cozzy]

"The rearranged dates for three of Brighton & Hove Albion's Premier League fixtures in the month of April have now been confirmed.

Chris Hughton’s side will visit Stamford Bridge to take on Chelsea in the Premier League on Wednesday 3rd April at 7.45pm – this game is therefore no longer selected for broadcast.

The Seagulls will then host Cardiff City at the Amex Stadium on Tuesday 16th April, with the match also kicking off at 7.45pm.
The game against Tottenham Hotspur that was due to be played on Sunday 7th April at 4.30pm has been moved to Tuesday 23rd April with a later start time of 7.45pm, owing to Albion’s progress in the Emirates FA Cup.

The contest will take place at the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but the match still retains its original broadcast status with Sky Sports."


So its Chelsea a few days before the semi

So I hope we will play our full reserve team and possibly some kids away at Chelsea.

Look at us going all Johnny Billy Bollocks and resting players for a Cup Semi Final

Only because you checked on the official site

I had - but i decided when they gave us the refund that i wasn't going to re-purchase... am expecting a baby and money is going to be tight - especially with two trips to Wembley coming up

So the only game that could be moved for TV now is the Arsenal game.

IF we beat Southampton, then maybe.

If we DON'T, then absolutely no chance of this happening, IMO.

 

[Cozzy]

Its going to be a tough call for CH .... though technically I guess same team could play both games

Chelsea V Reserves & Man City V 1st Team

or

Chelsea V 1st Team & Man City V Reserves

either way both could go tits up

 

[brighton terra]

Tuesday 2nd would have made more sense for the Chelsea game. I can only assume they’ve got a game on the preceding Sunday.

Depends on the Saints result IMO. If we win I'd be fine with rotation for Chelsea, if we lose or draw with Saints I'd rather go all out at the Bridge.

It always was I suppose, but if we lose to Saints it will be a difficult decision to play the reserves away at Chelsea. But that is what I would do regardless.

We have to give the Semi Final our best shot, and Chelsea away was never likely to give us more than a point at best anyway.
