Shame. The team that I coach were due to have the match day experience for that game.
Hopefully they’ll be able to do the late night midweek for when rearranged

I posted a thread a week or two back about the lack of available dates.
It will be interesting to see when we end up playing the re-arranged fixture.
The Tuesday immediately following the due date was my preference but this could be unavailable dependant on when tv would like the Chelski tie played.

I don't think it will be screened now, they will have to get another game for the 12.30 slot.
Let's hope it's later in the season when it’s warmed up a bit.

From a selfish point of view it's good news for me - always struggle to make the Sat lunchtime kick offs.

Don’t they leave the immediate midweek afterwards free for rescheduling, so we’d likely play this on March 20 or 21? (Replays get held over a week these days).
Chelsea are away at Barcelona the previous midweek in the Champions League, then hopefully away at Leicester Saturday and away at us on the Tuesday or Wednesday.
Big week for them.

No replays in FA Cup 6th Round.
March 20th/21st will be during the international break.

Anyone heard anything on this or know when we might hear something? Need to change train tickets for me and brother again.

It's likely to be April 17th/18th I think.
