The longer it takes, the more something unusual is likely. I.e. a game in the blackout, or a 12.30 or 7.45pm for example and 'mitigating' it by making arrangements to help 5% of fans.

I can't see a 7.45pm kick-off. That would be beyond stupid when there's a tea-time slot available that doesn't clash with a Premier League TV game.

12.30 is a possibility even though there's a PL TV game in that slot which might put the broadcasters off wanting it to kick off at that time. There is a precedent for that though - there was a clash in 2012 when Liverpool and Everton played their semi at lunchtime. And without checking it was our 6-1 win at Norwich that it clashed with - that was an early kick-off on Sky the same day and I'm sure I remember seeing updates from Wembley on the TV screens on the concourse when I went for a half-time pint.

It was our 6-1 so missed it we were in a restaurant near the river, and Grand National on the radio on the way back.

Last night I decided I no longer wanted to be one of the 'Usual Suspects' (see previous ignorant post) and I have abandoned the idea of going on the train.
I am fed up with being treated like shit. I am going on a coach but it is my last semi final. Fuck the FA.

Put a £50 deposit down for my ticket through support club, would have easily got one anyway but good to get together in a block.

Paid £45 for my coach travel.
