FA Cup SF Draw | Sheffield United | Sat 22 Apr 16:45

[Blue Mist]

It’s a Semi Final - don’t think there is any presentation

Ah good point.
Note to self. Think before posting........(or stay in off topic then you dont have to)

Announce new dates for West Ham and Leeds and then have a last sentence in the message that the Sheffield Utd and Brighton still to be confirmed.

What a dragged out saga.

Saturday with a 5.30pm Kick-off so I hear on the grapevine

Struggle to get last train if it goes to extra time if that is the case. Might even be a problem if there is a bit of injury time and game finishes after 90.

Wow, Axel, you really think those travelling by coach want a 5.30 kick off. 8.30pm finish if you watch the presentation after extra time so 9.30pm before you're leaving the coach Park (if you're lucky) 5 hours minimum drive home bearing in mind the obligatory stop, back in Manchester 2am. Seriously ?
Those wanting to get the train aren't being selfish as you say. They are just fed up of being treated like sewage.

Maybe I mix in the wrong circles mate but plenty of lads I know prefer a little bit of a lie in, setting off about 10am, couple of beer stops on the way then park up early enough to leave a bit of time to get a few more in before kick off. Coming home’s the last thing on a lot of people’s minds - it’s a big day out, who wants to be home for 10pm on a Saturday night ??

Fair do's. My point is, tell us. We know what date the final is but no one knows the time, how stupid is that ?
If, after the draw was made on the Sunday, they announced on the Monday it was a Sunday 9.30pm kick off at least I'd know and could plan. This is just a shit show.

Nah that's just a default.

It's de fault of the FA for taking too long to decide on a KO time for our semi-final.
