Sunday would be perfect for me from a very selfish perspective. I have long stood plans on the Saturday.

Even if he ran the whole race at 2020 Traore pace he couldn’t make it.Get him to run quicker
Don't knock the "Gruniad" fine payper.Why on earth do the FA seemingly do everything they can to fck up their flagship product? Every year, for ages. Rounds spread over days on end, draws made halfway through the round, matches scheduled for obviously sht times (including the final)… As I boringly mention often, I’ve got all the elements that should make an early Sunday kick off ‘logical’ but I can think of nothing worse. Given our game is unlikely to appeal to many people who can’t go anyway at least schedule it at a time when attendees can enjoy it fully.
Popped round to see my Dad this afternoon so had the rare treat of seeing the Guardian in actual, real paper. That says ‘ties to be played 15-18 March’ so perhaps a Friday evening is an option? Not looking forward to the nostalgia of someone reminding me about Guardian typos now…
'Grauniad'...Don't knock the "Gruniad" fine payper.
Grauniad is what it was called by the entire advertising industry throughout my 40 years, as a tribute to the zillions of spelling mistakes, still is as far as i know'Grauniad'...
Pah! I’m in Birmingham celebrating my 40th birthday on this day (40, ffs - how has this happened?!) - and to make matters worse, at least 3 of the lads coming are Coventry fans.Next round, Sat 16th 12.15 ko.
That'll suck the atmosphere right out of the gameNext round, Sat 16th 12.15 ko.
??Doubt I'll bother, it's not inconvenient as such for me, just rubbish.
I had enough points to go to The Hawthorns if I'd wanted so I'll easily have enough for Wembley if we get there and I want to go.
Hennessey's is decent for football viewing.On that front, does anyone have any good suggestions of venues that show football in Birmingham and aren’t a million miles away from the city centre?
Been there to see us now, the surrounding area is a fucking hovel, if it were a standard away game I'd never go back like I'll never go to Southend again. In fact Southend is better, so is Rotherham, Hull, Gillingham or insert any other shit venue you like (excluding the crap out of town ones like Reading or Coventry where there is literally nothing to do).

Frustrating that it’s an early kick off as we’re doing something until 12:30, so will have to try and find somewhere to watch the second half.
