F.A Cup 4th Round - Millwall away

[villajk]

I take it that it's been moved to Friday for espn?

Apparently it's because of a demonstration at Lewisham hospital on the Saturday.

A demonstration at Lewisham hospital

which I'm attending. Thousands truned up to the last one

Would rather it had been on Saturday. But I guess living in London, it won't make too much difference to me personally. I hope it doesn't effect the amount of Villans coming down though. A Millwall fan I know is quite confident we will get the full allocation of 4,000.

Espn have shown Friday night cup ties before so with this being moved I guess there's a chance they may decide to show the game anyway , what is the demonstration in aid of , nurses or hospital cuts?

[villajk]

They may well do then, eastie.  I've no idea what the demonstration is about.

We'll do well to sell 1,000 now it's been moved and after last night

I doubt it, they can only show an agreed number of games and they have already identified those.

Just googled and its about opposing the closure of the hospital.

I'm assuming the Friday tie is instead of having a Monday tie? I think they had Friday ties last year didn't they?

You'd think the selfish bastards could have their protest during the week. We've got a football match to play here.

I'll be going and will be meeting up with a few Millwall supporting mates probably only after the game. Should be interesting attempting to meet up with them.

There is some pretty severe weather coming at the end of the month so game could be off anyway

Which 3 games have they chosen? Thought this would have been one of the 5 televised ones.

Might have known , just checked man city, man utd, Chelsea, Liverpool, spurs !

On the bright side, we don't have to worry about another nationally broadcast embarrassing defeat.

It's almost like they aren't even interested in shocks anymore. I thought that was what the cup was all about?
