I'm hoping this will sell it to her haha

yeah, and make sure the hotel has wifi and you can give her a pissed up victorious 1am FaceTime call from the comfort of your hotel en-suite toilet!

I've got an awful gut feeling that we won't get a TV slot at all

 

[Notters]

I'd MUCH rather have it on the Friday night than the Sunday; don't mind taking half a day's holiday. Sunday games are always SHITHOUSE. It doesn't feel right at all.

That would be good though. Saturday 3pm kick off makes it easy to get there and back (ignoring the Liverpool/Everton only one game on Saturday thing). Either way it would mean a 3 o'clock kick off on Saturday or Sunday.

I'm hoping for a Sunday, the kick off times are much more fan friendly than the other TV slots.

Surely we don`t need it live on tv do we? I`d rather we took the 15% up there and fill the away end rather than some people staying at home to save cash and watch on tv.

I agree, but sadly I think the fact it's Liverpool almost guarantees a telly slot if they are showing five out of eight games.

We'll sell out our allocation regardless. It would be nice for those of us that can't afford to go ( or won't have enough points to get a ticket ) to be able to see the game.

We certainly will if its Saturday or Sunday but not so sure about Friday night.

Disagree 100%

You obviously weren't there in '83!!

Friday night would be a nightmare, travel wise, and would stop a huge number travelling.

 

[Randsta]

I'm hoping for a Saturday evening kick out and then hit the town after and get the first train back! MASHUP!!!

Wouldn't it have made more sense to list the draws in the order you ranked them?


(Agree with your order though, apart from us & Arsenal, which I would swap around.)

 

[Chicken Run]

If I was going to rank them I wouldnt have strted a new thread, I would have used the one running already.........
