I'm sure I've read that all 8 games are to be televised , so that will definitely rule out 3 o'clock on the Saturday.
I personally think it'll be the Saturday 12.30 slot.

They should move the Blose game, that would cheer them up.

Be ironic that I've made all the arrangements for a mates birthday and I end up not being able to go as thematch will come first.

Any time but 5.30 on sat please please

So Friday night would be perfect  (fingers crossed)

2 days after we play Palace.

We play Palace on the Tuesday (Feb. 25th).
Friday 28th, so 2 days rest then play Cardiff.

So on that logic, you want us to potentially play our CL match only two days after the FA Cup or the Brentford match so we have three days between Palace and the FA Cup match?

For the game it appears the 1897 Group are creating a Peter Whittingham flag. Details here if you want to donate

I was pointing out it’s not perfect whatever happens, Saturday then Wednesday would be my preference.

They’re using technology that speeds up the VAR offside process. Like Hawkeye but not quite.

They strap something to the linesman’s arm which raises his arm and flag automatically when it receives a signal.
The Lino just has to remember to drink his half time cuppa with his other hand.
