FA Cup: Quarter Final Draw

[Elephant Pyjamas]

That would be the time if Football was not shown on TV. Looking at the dates given by the FA it will be one game on Friday, then Saturday (probably 5.30), Sunday then Monday.

Have a feeling we will be the Monday one

From what i have read the international break starts on the 18th (the monday), so whilst it's down as a potential date i don't think it is?

Friday is BBC's comic relief, so if BBC have first dibs you'd imagine they'd go with the Saturday night as it's the best game of the draw and that would surely attract the most viewers?

 

[Kenny]

All depends if BBC have anything important they normally show on a Saturday teatime. They get a shit ton of complaints when they move certain programs around. No idea what they show on Saturdays anymore but in the week it is a minefield if they push Eastenders out of the way.

Rugby is on at 5 on the Saturday, so we could still be 7.30/8pm KO.

 

[Kenny]

Can't be Monday, the international break starts then

I was just going on the dates the FA dished out last night. Clearly the FA are as switched on as much as I am

Won't be that late. If its 2 games on Saturday it will be 12.30 and 5.30 or 2 on the Sunday at 1 and 4

Fair to say it won't be the Friday night or Saturday evening then.

Fair to say it won't be the Friday night or Saturday evening then.

Depends who shows us. BBC might fancy Watford over us and we end up on BT and then Friday and Saturday evening are back on the agenda...

BT won't give a crap out Comic Relief or the Rugby

Sunday 4pm will clash with a Chelsea live premier league game on Sky.

 

[Jinky]

Here's a novel idea... let's wait and see.

 

[Kenny]

Not sure BBC will overly worry about clashes with Sky.

Constantly get clashes of crap Championship games on Sky with BT Prem League games. BBC viewing figures won't be overly hit, especially if its Man Utd they are showing

Here's a novel idea... let's wait and see.

or another novel idea....people use a discussion forum to discuss shit when they are bored

Of course BT don't care about Comic relief, but with BBC having the 1st choice they will surely go for the highest profile game.

Would presume BBC would pick Man Utd as their 1st game but you never know. They might fancy Swansea v Man City for some reason

And they would choose us and probably the Sunday 4PM slot, which is probably where we'll be.

 

[The Bear]

BBC might choose City and the remote possibility of a giant-killing, with them having just shown Utd.

You utter bitch :icon_lol:

 

[Tony Towner]

BBC have had United as first choice the last two rounds. They may feel they can't this time even though it is clearly the best game
