At what point do we have a real fixture congestion???

The Arsenal match being 4 days after the final is great for City, as they won't be able to go full strength for both.

The Wigan match will be tough to win in 90 mins - these are the type of games we have a habit of drawing.

Has anyone got a fixture list including all the competitions if we stay in them all?

After the international break this is how it could pan out for us:

March 31st - Everton
April 3rd/4th - CL Q/F 1st Leg
April 7th/8th - Scum
April 10th/11th - CL Q/F 2nd Leg
April 14th/15th - Spurs
April 17th/18th - Brighton
April 21st/22nd - FAC S/F
April 24th/25th - CL S/F 1st Leg
April 28th/29th - West Ham
May 1st\2nd - CL S/F 2nd Leg
May 5th/6th - Huddersfield
May 8th/9th - Swansea
May 13th - Southampton

Could be even more challenging to fit in an Arsenal rearranged game if we draw tomorrow night. Or could be much less challenging if we get knocked out of FAC and CL before the semi final stages. Personally I hope it pans out as above and we win the lot of em.
 
Got to feel sorry for Brighton and Swansea fans that want to go to these games. It's a he'll of a hike midweek wuth the M5 and M6 roadworks.
 
If we win the League I don't want the pot presenting on a Tuesday or Wednesday either.
Huddersfield is the game.

Thanks for the list. That is a daunting set of fixtures but one I am looking forward to.

Thanks for working that out - however the Brighton match has already been moved as they are in FA Cup QF - so presume that will head into first midweek slot 18/19 April. That leaves space for Swansea match to be moved to 8/9 May if either they or us make it to FA SF. The major problem is created if we draw with Wigan and then have to re-arrange the Arsenal match again.
