FA Cup Semi Final draw - Brighton

[Dax777]

He won't make the cut at left back but could in midfield if needed

Might be best to play him there until he settles down

Nah he needs to be left back in the stands.

 

[cibaman]

Yep.

FA say:

"No Fixtures available, please check later.

Fixture dates and times may change, subject to TV selections and replays"


Let's wait for a confirmation on mancity.com, but the outcome will be clear anyway.

More importantly for me, when will they announce the date of the Cardiff game? I can't make 2nd Aprill so really hoping its the 3rd

I really want the quadruple and want us in best possible stead for the spurs game. I think a team consisting of

Ederson
Danilo
Stones
Laporte
Delph
Gundogan
Bernardo
Foden
Mahrez
Jesus
Sterling

Not quite a b side but it would see some key players get a break for that spurs game. If they’re needed send them off the bench.

Given their respective performances and Pep’s dirty looks when they were dragged off - if Delph and Mahrez make the travelling party - it’ll be to carry the drinks and help out the kit man.

If it is that mid week, it’s more likely to be 3rd than 2nd ... thank sky’s TV picks for that!

Does anyone know when the FA are going to give the dates for the semi-finals. As I need to sort out day's at for work.

Its almost certainly the Saturday but the FA should have announced it already to allow people to book time off,travel and accommodation etc

How can people say play a second string when we nearly went out on Saturday. Full strength team simple for me get the game won then asses the subs.

 

[BoysInBlueFromDivision 2]

FA are rightly dragging their heels on the dates. Should be crystal clear for me, City play on Saturday to accommadate the fact they play in Europe on Tuesday night. If the FA were any good they'd be giving an English team the best chance they can in the interest of possible European progress.

More importantly how can fans begin to make arrangements for the game when we have no idea as to where we stand.

 

[Blue Mist]

How hard can it be to ring the BBC and BT and get a quick decision on a time and a date, then a quick call to the plod to make sure they are happy and then announce it and everyone is happy.

Mind you we have already been stitched up a few years ago when we had to play the kids so my money is on the Sunday !!!!

 

[xgorton]

Just noticed our next 4 games are all in London.

 

[citytilllidie]

Friday night?

You may think that but BT have the first game pick and BBC want their match on Saturday Evening. Guess what?

 

[Rochdale Blue]

The Brighton official site reckon it's Saturday, but say awaiting confirmation.

 

[Norman Stanley Fletcher]

This .. on the BBC Online Home Page right now ...... everything sorted - nobody can complain ... all 4 teams play on the same pitch at the same time - should be interesting!

 

[Fordyboy46]

This will go to general sale won't it?

They've given up with the fucking thing now mate, after ten o'clock on Saturday night to be precise.

Definitely

It’s the only way to beat us 3 v 1

They will, Spurs.
