Which game would be postponed if we beat Wigan in the FA Cup?

Bang out of order that, who honestly gives a fuck if they play that whilst the chumps league is on?
The FA need to grow a set of bollocks and tell UEFA to fuck off. It's ludicrous that they signed up to this agreement in the first place.

Liverpool away as that is the weekend of the semi finals mate

Thanks SHB. We are going to get to a stage where we will have 3 games in hand over other teams.

I was looking at the league fixtures yesterday and Chelsea play Arsenal in the early Saturday kick off on the 22nd March, meaning we'd temporarily have 4 games in hand, madness!

Over a century of history disregarded, right there. It's like deposing a grand old lady to make way for some brassy tart. The phrase 'the price of everything and the value of nothing', comes to mind.

How does everyone think we will respond to the games in hand? We seemed to respond positively when we were behind with a clear target in our games in the 2011/12 title winning season. We could have up to 4 games in hand and may be say 9 points off top, I think that gives us a real advantage in knowing what we need. Then again, having the pressure of requiring 12 points may be negative on the team?!

We could easily be outside the top four if we have a point where we have three or four games in hand on teams around us. There will be a lot of pressure on us to win these game win hand.

Arsenal did it years ago when utd went 10pts clear, had a few games in hand, fred done paid out on utd and arsenal clawed it back. ..
All we need now is for fred done to pay out on utd........oh hang on a minute.....
Are they still 7th?

I think it depends on the Capital One Cup Final the Wigan game and then the following Semi Final if we beat Wigan. Good results in them games will have a positive feel good factor and the momentum will be in overdrive.
