[Albion] Cardiff City (h) game re-arranged to Tue. 16th April @ 7::45pm

[Surrey Phil]

I get there are issues agreeing a new date for Chelsea (a) as they are still in Europe but does anyone know why we cannot quickly reschedule the Cardiff (h) game? As there are no FAC replays required, a look at the calendar shows we could easily play mid week any time in April 2019 - so why the delay?

because I dont want it between 17 -19 April

Some views on here, have you emailed the club?

I second this motion (15 - 17th in my case).

I really, REALLY don't want to miss that game.

Although I sincerely hope not, there is a potential free Saturday for both us and Cardiff on April 6th.

Big set of if's, but

If we lose to Millwall and
If Man City beat Swansea and
If Spurs new Stadium is NOT ready for April 6th

We could play Cardiff on April 6th as we are due to play at Spurs, and they are due to play Man City.

So would they cancel our Spurs game on the Sunday and play Cardiff instead? I thought they said us or Palace will be the first game.

I'm guessing we want to re-arrange Chelsea first, in case we arrange the Cardiff one for a date Chelsea can do.

Basics of diary planning, slot the trickiest one in first.

I really DO want it on those dates as I will be in Sussex for the first time since July.

If we lose to Millwall but Spurs new stadium is not ready on April 6th, it would be called off anyway as the FA Cup semi-finals are that weekend so Wembley is not available. Then as Cardiff are due to play Man City that weekend, if City are still in the cup that would be called off, so we could potentially play Cardiff that weekend instead of Spurs.

I think the reason for the delay is UEFA don't like top flight games clashing with their competitions. April 23/24 which is the only midweek (other than April 5/6) we could do. We can't play Chelsea on 23/24 as they play on the 22nd. So we will play on the 23rd or 24th April, either Spurs-A or Cardiff-H depending on Sunday's result.

I see they are having test events on 24th and 30th. Should be ready unless...…..

You have far too much time on your hands !

 

[Surrey Phil]

There an advantage to both us and Cardiff by playing the game in the next few weeks (depending on who gets the points)!

Mrs Nose says can the game kick off at about 4.10pm so I can do a few odd jobs in the morning, have lunch with her, make my way to the ground, then not be too late home when we've finished. She'd also like us to win 7-0 so I'm in a really good mood when I get home. Thank you.

I'm sure I read somewhere it's likely to be 2nd or 3rd April. I think it was the Cardiff equivalent of The Argus

 

[Greg Bobkin]

I think they should just bin it and give each team 1.5 points.
