100% not happening on that night - City play their UEFA Cup game that week

 

[steward 433]

Weds 17th or 24th

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Nothing showing on the offical site, we said we would annonce on Monday the date so maybe they are going to play the game two days prior with a weakend team to avoid a fixture pile up. I hope so I am away working most of September and have to confirm dates.

 

[Walkers Cajun Squirrel]

If that is the case man city would play 3 games in 4 days so I would say no!

 

[steward 433]

It WILL be either the 17th or 24th of September

 

[Wardy]

It WILL be either the 17th or 24th of September

I am guessing you know because you have been asked to work?

BHA v Manchester City

 

[Dirty Dave]

I saw that as well but surely it should confirm the fixture as Brighton v Manchester City but the date as TBA

 

[steward 433]

I saw that as well but sureley it should confirm the fixture as Brighton v Manchester City but the date as TBA

Think it must be a typo as they are already showing 2 round 2 games. Surely it should be a round 3 game?

 

[algie]

We will find out on the 28th Aug according to the Argus

 

[Jam The Man]

It will depend on whether City are still in the Uefa Cup as to if it's 17th or 24th Sept

 

[Hungry Joe]

From the Argus site:

Albion will have to wait until Thursday August 28 to confirm the date of their big Carling Cup clash at home to Manchester City.

That is when the Premier League club play the second leg of their UEFA Cup tie away to Danish club FC Midtjylland.

If City, 1-0 down from the first leg, go out then they will visit Withdean on Tuesday September 16.

If they go through then the Seagulls will entertain Mark Hughes' side on Wednesday September 24.

Albion will announce interim details of ticket arrangements for the match later today.

Meanwhile, the Johnstone's Paint Trophy tie away to Northampton will be played on Tuesday September 2.

It is true that the club need to be sorting the ticketing out before we know the date. Otherwise there could be less than 3 weeks between the date being confirmed and the match taking place

 

[blockhseagull]

Why wait.... why don't we just play in on the 24th no matter what.

Because I'm away on holiday that week

So I want City to lose next week so the game is played on the 16th

I am working away in Yorkshire on the 16th so am praying the reverse, so one of us will be happy.

I sort of have a feeling City may only draw and lose on away goals. Hope its on the TV so will see it whatever.

Completely impossible for City to lose on away goals. So doubt that will happen
