Do we know when they will fix the dates and timings of the semis?

Do they try to keep the Semi KO times away from Premier League TV games ?

If so, 3pm on the Sat would fit for one of the games but I can't figure out when the Sun game would be

Last year's semi-finals were at 1715 on Saturday and 1530 on Sunday. The latter clashed with a televised Fulham vs Liverpool game (KO 1630) in the league.

Top scorer in the FA Cup this season is Northern Ireland and Exeter City's Josh McGennis, with 6.

And I'm saying that as someone who's had a moan about it. Let's just see what happens.

I post regularly about Villa on other forums, I've rarely been negative about the club. I post concerns here as it's a large forum and I'd like those concerns heard.

I will wait and see what happens, and if the worse happens, then so be it. But you can't attempt voice concerns after the event can you.

Only for hotel bookings. Most of that is the other side of London AND the majority would be finishing up by 1ish.

John McGinn will win that, too.

That's good to hear, personally i would like the Saturday slot, well ticket permitting, I have 25 years as a season ticket and all 3 home and Preston away , but this is another regime in charge.

There is a lot of worrying over ticket distribution going on before we even know the criteria. As has been pointed out the allocation will likely cover all STHs who wish to get one although they may have to pay more than they'd like and they

Well if they decide members with 1, 2 or 3 cups get preference over STH with none, then maybe there won't be enough.

With a potential CL semi on the Tuesday and the decision being made this week, we are likely to be on the Saturday. Hopefully it will be a post 5pm KO and not lunchtime, the latter will make travel a pain in the arse.

No, our game with Tottenham clashes with the FA Cup Final. The natural place to play a potential rearranged game would be the midweek after, but that's the date of the Europa League Final.

I thought they had stopped that shite with the FA Cup final being played on the same day as league games. What a load of crap. It should have its own day.
