FA Cup Quarter-Final Draw | Burnley (H)

[mosssideblue]

Will be a tight game mate. This isn't Sean Dyche's team of up and over plodders anymore. Kompany has instilled playing out from the back with neat and tidy passing. They work hard to keep possession. Similar to how we play.

I watched the first half last night and whilst they had a method, the quality was missing.

10 man Fleetwood, gave them a horrid time.

Leeds have had 12 consecutive away draws in domestic cups

Good.

50/50 chance Friday or Saturday. United in Europa on the Thursday, so they have to play Sunday.

Was struggling for the WHU game on the Sun due to work, so that's a bonus. Sat lunch for me.

Burnley playing Wednesday so not Friday

We play Tuesday 14th, Burnley, Sheffield and Blackburn all play Wednesday 15th, scum play Thursday cos they are shite so we will have to play on the Saturday as scum will be playing Sunday, it's that simple for the TV companies. Brighton also play on the 15th so they won't play Friday. Not sure therefore if any game can be played on the Friday despite the reports saying games are played 17 - 19. Only issue is that on the Saturday, Sky have a 5.30 game so no doubt one game will be 12.30 and the other will have to be 19.45. On Sunday Sky have a 14.00 ko!

Burnley playing on Wednesday so Friday is a non-starter

Friday night is problematic at the moment because only Grimsby don't have a match mid-week. Rags can't be moved. Brighton are already 2 or 3 games behind in the PL (I'm guessing the Wed game is already a rearranged one) so it won't be good to move theirs. If you move Sheff U and Blackburn that's 4 teams affected whereas with Burnley it's just 2. If anything, ours is the most likely for the shit Friday pm slot.

That said, I think the Friday game might get knocked on the head.

Sky’s 2.00 game would have been Brighton v United so that’s not happening

Think back when Rosler returned in the FA Cup with Wigan and turned us over..

Thought it's Arsenal v Palace

No, that's not showing as televised on Arsenal website or Sky's page (nothing for that Sunday in the PL).
