- Thread starter Willy Dangle
- Start date
Why would they care if they draw Chelsea at home for instance, they played them three weeks ago.

Not that it affects me but how many people can get into Brighton for 5 on a Monday? A lot of us have to work. Personally I wish all the tv companies would leave football alone. Just the cup final and England matches with Match of the day on Saturday nights (they used to cover all the league's) and The Big Match on a Sunday afternoon. Bah!

A glimpse of life in the Premier League. Maybe not greener after all.

Nice. Best part of Half a mill if we win - A big IF though.
Edit: Be a nice carrot for the boys to be drawn at home to Sunderland in the QF going into this one

People who have finished work already that is.
Should also say that if you already pre-booked travel to come to this game for the Saturday, then you are a MASSIVE idiot. Why would you pre-book travel to a game that could have possibly been moved ?
To get cheap train tickets?

OR maybe we are finally due a win. We do well in home cup games too, especially against lacklustre sides.
But why couldnt you (not you you, but you know what i mean) wait an extra couple of days so you can be certain, especially when there was a chance we would be stuck on TV anyway.

To be fair , the match tickets went on sale this morning and people could have pre-booked travel at the same time because there was nothing to say the date and time of the game could be altered.

But it wasnt confirmed. Anyone with the slightest bit of common sense would have waited for the TV announcement.

I thought the games were to be played on the Saturday and Sunday. There has been no mention before (that I am aware of) that the ties could be on a Monday.
But Monday it is.
I really can't see Hull bringing down more than a couple of hundred, unless they make it into a seaside break. It is half term.
The fact it's on the telly will affect the number of home fans and the fact it's a weekday evening will also knock a few off the attendance, however it is half term, so all the normal stayaways with kids may well turn up.
The pricing is very good, so I think we may just scrape £25k for this one.
And we WILL be in the quarter final draw!

The ticket site had a disclaimer at the bottom stating that the fixture date is subject to change.

Maths is not really my thing, but that would mean an attendance of 6,400,000,000,000 if I've worked that out correctly. Not sure that's going to happen even at £15 a head.
