Yeah ok Dave 🤯

Misread the meaning of the post - it said strikes ‘this weekend’ not weekend of the FA Cup game….

Aren’t they all on the Saturday?

[Simonb]

Only 2 teams left I would rather avoid until the final is Liverpool or Man City.. not saying we'd beat everyone else... but we could on the day 

 

Get to the final and hope for 3 early reds for the opponents .. then you never know 😂

Be Southampton Thursday night and Chelsea Sunday lunch .. that's how well the FA will look at it I bet 

[Weller Wing]

Hope it's not Sunday evening. 

It's St Patrick's day and even though I'm not Irish,  it's a belter of a day on the bevvies. 

 

I wouldn't remember anything about the game though,  which might be a good thing 😄

[LCFCJoe96]

I know they love ****ing around but no real reason the tv times can’t be announced pretty quickly

[ElusiveEd]

They are gonna have to announce it pretty soon. 

 

Due to the other fixtures in the area I can only see it as being a Sunday game.

 

Anyone any idea when these decisions might be announced?

Do you really think it's a conspiracy against us? 

I don't think there is a conspiracy against us, I know there is one!

Friday night wouldn’t be a shock, Chelsea women are playing there then but it was said that that was subject to the men’s team getting through the Cup & getting a home tie, so maybe it’d been eyed up already

[Jattdogg]

It HAS to be us vs coventry in the final (if the bracket will allow it).

You mean you won't remember us beating them 4-2 on their own turf.. that's a gallon of Guinness then

They just won't want the pitch being used before the men play on the same weekend if have thought. 

 

We'll be playing Southampton mid week I reckon .. it'll be the Sunday lunch or Saturday evening

On one occasion we faced Chelsea in the Quarter Finals in 2012.

 

Chelsea had the likes of Petr Cech, John Terry, Ashley Cole, David Luiz, Michael Essien, Frank Lampard, Fernando Torres, Juan Mata, Dider Drogba, Mikel John Obi, Gary Cahill, Paulo Ferreira, Florent Malouda... which would all go on to lift the champions league a few weeks later... that 2-5 defeat don't look so bad now.

 

Chelsea squad now would dream for just one of those players. An upset at Stamford Bridge is not impossible, only just beat Leeds tonight.

To be fair to them, we’ve not beaten Leeds even only just…
