Ah okay, either way, we should be playing on Saturday.

5.45 on the Sat.

Might be a lot of tricky conversations over plans for that night.....

Valentine’s Day massacre for Newcastle live on Tv.

A lovely valentine’s night out for those setting out on the love boat.

The game will be broadcast live on BBC One and TNT Sports 3, while also being available to stream live across discovery+ and the BBC iPlayer.

I would love it if we beat them! Love it!

It might work out for us.  The game is played over the weekend of 13th-15th Feb.

There's a fair chance that Newcastle will be in the CL playoffs.  The first leg of that is played on the 17th-18th Feb.

So they may prioritise the CL.

Probably means that the game will be Friday night/Saturday rather than Sunday/Monday.

 


(And we can't fuck up a top 8 finish in the Europa, or we'll be in the same boat).

We play Wednesday so very unlikely to be Friday. Saturday evening would be likely – and then Blues v Leeds could sit early Sunday.

Brentford play on the Thursday, so them at Macclesfield nailed on for one TV slot Sunday/Monday.

Remarkably, every now and again, the FA follow logic to its best conclusion.
Us Saturday 1745
Blues Sunday 1200

Lots of Leeds fans fancying a Saturday night out in Brum?

Doesn't matter as no chance any Villa fan would dare be in town.

My concern was that Birmingham might not have enough hotel rooms to cope with it.
