Because the 2nd leg of the next round could be played on the Wednesday night beforehand.
So if we are away 2nd leg we wont get back til the Thursday and then 48 hours later were playing in a big game on a big pitch against Arsenal.
Well it did last year when we put our youth side out against Chelsea..Ha ha. As if that would make any difference
I know she told me :_)Width is important, not length. According to my missus anyway
Equal chance the 2nd leg could be at home on the Tuesday though. If we do progress tonight, I don't think the semi-final date will be confirmed till after the CL draw on Friday.Because the 2nd leg of the next round could be played on the Wednesday night beforehand.

I think it'll be Saturday. London Marathon on Sunday so loads of public transport will be booked up already and people travelling into London from hither and thither. Besides, we can't seriously be complaining about having to play Wednesday/Saturday, can we?Because the 2nd leg of the next round could be played on the Wednesday night beforehand.

The CL game was after the cup game last year (and in Kiev). If we progress tonight we will have to get home from Italy, Spain, Germany or Leicester (or we could be in Manchester, obviously), so I'm not especially concerned with an extra day.But we did last year when we sent the youngsters out against Chelsea.
Arsenal will have a full weeks rest but we could have a big champions league game midweek.
For me it has to be Sunday IF we progress tonight.
