TV Blackout.

There was a full programme of league fixtures when we played Sheffield United last season with a 4.45pm kick-off

The police insisted it couldn’t kick off any later. So they were more or less forced to lift the blackout.

So does RAG Cafe showing both dates and games.We play Sunday according to their website.

Never ever trust that cowboy website Rag Cafe, the wankers.

Don't be in the least suprised if we lose this tie if it is on the Saturday. te difference between 3 days and 4 days is significant when it comes to recovery time and Pep might well rotate heavily given how tight the title race is.

Just have to thrash Madrid at the Bernabeu so we can rotate at home.

I think it's fine. If we'd been away in the 2nd leg in Madrid maybe, but we should have enough. As long as we avoid extra time!

Makes you wonder why the Met would authorise City v Chelsea to kick off later than City v Sheff Utd

Unless it's a similar game to last season and we have it won with 30 minutes to go....

Which given we are playing Chelsea - and not a team in a division below whos best 2 players were actually ours so couldnt play for the oppo - Id say this is rather unlikely.

I meant the Madrid game on the Wednesday!

As no trains back after the game, who's looking forward to getting out of the pink car park at Wembley after the game ?

There’s a train showing at 21.01. Plenty of time.

Bit of a rush if it went to pens. but still should be ok. They’ve held them back a while in the past also.

I love your optimism.

 

[M18CTID]

I wish they'd hurry up and confirm this - waiting to book the train ffs!

It is good to see the moaners out in force again.
Cannot wait until the club announces official travel times.

Let Mega bus take the strain.lol.

 

[manimanc]

Thought we'd play Sunday after playing Wednesday.
Ah well not to worry, hopefully we'll be in our stride by then for the run in.

That Coventry game was already moved once as it was meant to have been played QF weekend.
So really you're asking them to move 2 games for 1 match and 1 of those games has already been moved.

I am asking for nothing, already said coventry have been messed abput, what I want is it announced as early as possible
