Liverpool isn't confirmed. Villa have delayed ticket sales for a week so I imagine there is some scenario planning going on over that one. We'd presumably want to play on the Friday night if we get to the final

I don't think any PL games will be played Saturday because of the FA Cup final

I hope we don't do Friday but bring it to Wednesday or Thursday instead. But we should get this moved or the PL will be shown up for the twats they are after moving the Plop and Spurs matches last season over our protestations, then not moving one we wanted moving (IIRC).

Looks like it's confirmed now - or is that still pending confirmation?

It better not be on the fucking Sunday if we are playing on the following Wednesday.

Looks like we never bothered asking for the move at all, unless even we didn't want to jinx it and we ask only if we get through.

Looking elsewhere it seems Forest's match against Man U before the Europa League Final is a Monday night, so that will surely change.

Given that we can't play on the Saturday, why not just move both Villa and Forest games to the preceding Friday now and save pissing fans about later on?

Live football on tv hasn't got any fixtures listed for that weekend yet. The most sensible course of action would be to move both to Friday night now. The next most sensible is either/or with whoever wins our semi being on the Friday
