FA Cup R5 | Bristol City (A) | Tue 28 Feb 20:00 | - Pre Match Thread

The 76-77 game was a Saturday but we might have played them on a Friday night the following season. Our last two competitive games there were midweek as they were League Cup.

I think the Friday game we lost 4-0 and Joe Royle scored twice just after we had sold him!

I’m still trying to work out how you spell Horace Batchelor.

Last time i went there we lost 1-0, back in 1979 i think.
I seem to recall Paul Power might have been sent off, miserable day all round.
Joe Royle & Gerry Gow played for them i think.
This might all be bollocks or a dream nightmare

When do we think the TV companies will tell us when we're playing?

More than likely it'll be wednesday night. We play Bournemouth the Saturday before at 5.30 then the following Saturday it's Newcastle at 12.30

If the rags make it to the semi final will they be allowed to play at home?

IIRC last time there were 2 televised on one night with slightly different KO times eg 7.15 and 8pm - so could be 4 or 5 televised, but maybe I’m getting confused with covid era matches.

It was all 8 last season.

Not been there since mid 90s. Went with a few Grimsby mates to watch them.
