Confirmed now by the EFL. No Friday night game for the Championship – could be that we'll be the early kick-off should we end up playing the Baggies.

Doesn’t that mean that game A will be 3rd v 6th, in which case will be the tea time kick off ?

That's what it meant last year. It's not mentioned at all yet, which makes me think the police might have a say in the matter.

I'd say if it's Villa v Albion and we're at home 1st leg which looks likely at the moment, the police will insist we're the 12:45 kick off and not the 5:30 after the FA Cup game in 2015.

I bet they don't.

The police won't give a toss about Villa v Albion. If they were that arsed we wouldn't have played a Friday night game earlier this season.

Why did they have the over the top policing, the same blockades etc in place as when we play Blues and Albion only had 2000 tickets if the police aren't bothered?

[Lastfootstamper]

Why the assumption that it's always WMP/drinking that dictates? What if Avon & Somerset don't want thousands of pissed up Leeds in Bristol all day?

[sirlordbaltimore]

I'll be gutted if we're playing on the 15th as i have a prior engagement that night

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

Personally, I am not entertaining any play-off prospects until the end of the season, and we know where we are for definite!

It’s just absolutely astounding that we are able to have this thread considering where we were 8 games ago.

Not getting ahead of myself, but have they announced the dates and kick off times for the 2020 FA Cup Final and the 2021 Champions League Final yet?

They're waiting for Wolves to confirm.
