[Albion] Official Albion v Manchester City FA Cup semi-final planning thread Sat 6th April, 17.30pm

[Richy_Seagull]

12.30 isn’t an option due to the live football ‘blackout’ on Saturday afternoons

With extra time and pens it would go beyond the 2.45pm cut off.

It will almost certainly be 5.30pm or later.

Not true. Get PL games at 12:30 and Watford match in the cup was 12:15 on Saturday.

PL games don’t have pens and extra time

12.15 is the latest a game can kick off that can go to pens an extra time

Are we going to be in fricking away shirts for being drawn second?

I believe so

ye...I know boring but I'd make up for it during the rest of the weekend

 

[LamieRobertson]

I believe so

I picked this off a site
''In terms of colours, the teams propose which kit they want to wear (they’d don’t have to pick their home kit), and if there’s a clash, they’ll toss a coin at FA Headquarters in the week leading up to the game''

and this from a previous semi
Villa have been drawn at home in every round of this season's FA Cup on their way to next month's semi final.


And that will continue for the last four tie at 3pm on Sunday, April 19, with Villa winning the toss to play in their home kit and to use the home dressing room at Wembley.

I dont think thats true. I believe the toss of a coin decides who changes if there is a clash. In any case given the different blues used and our stripes the FA may decide there is no clash.

I did Crisp in that race.

You doped it?

 

[Goldstone1976]

I did Crisp in that race.

Was he still charging at that point, or did he let you have a free ride?

 

[el punal]

Goal music - if my ears are correct Millwall had it - do they have it at Wembley??

Please, say there is no chance of the Sheffield Wednesday/England band turning up?

Both City and Chelsea wore their home kits in the Carabao final as the FA decided there wasn't a clash. Can't see why our kit would be much different, so hopefully we'll be in the stripes!

I just hope they get on with it/pull their finger out and announce the date and time today. I don't see what is taking them so long.

move the grand national.....

As I understand it the Grand National when being run is always moving. It previously has brought tears to my eyes.
