April TV Fixtures

[MAG]

Just booked my train for the 7th (derby)
What are the chances this gets moved?

HIGH probability that this gets moved!

If United scrape past Sevilla, which they will, then I can't see how one of us won't be playing on the following Tuesday?
So the derby is moved to 12.30? is that right?

Draw each other then it's just one fixture for both!

i think Saturday 7th at 5.30pm is the only suitable time for both city and united. If united get through, one of us will have Wed 4th CL, 7th Derby and potentially Tuesday 10th...

Hard to imagine them moving it to 12.30 if someone is potentially away in Shakhtar Donetsk on the Wednesday night??

We wont know anything until the 16th March.

Last train back to Manchester on the Spurs game is 21.00. So it's either a drive home leaving Wembley around 9.45 or an overnight stay. Once again the TV companies have the fans best interests at heart

The club should arrange free/cheap coach and train specials. They agree that fans can be the 12th man for such an important fixture. At most it would cost them £100k - cheap for a point or three.

I think the problem is also that Liverpool and Chelsea are on Sunday - if they get through and play on the Tuesday then they will try swap our game.
Bit of a mess and the fixtures won't be set until the Champ league draw is made

26 May - Sat - 7:45pm - Champions League Final

Think we might need to arrange a match for the 19th of May, to long a gap between our last game and the final!

I don't think there is even a TV rights slot available for Premier League games to be played at 7.45pm on a Saturday night?

Maybe overseas Camp and friendly...so risky for injuries but i see your point.

They have one Friday night 7:45pm slot left, which is what Sky has used for this ... citing only possible day due to CL QFs mid week.
