I actually might try to go to this one - see what the doctor says about the crowd size.

it'll be pretty poor unless the club put it general sale and price it right.

[Corky]

So this time still isn't set, then?

Well, any crowd might be a problem ... I now have scar tissue in my brain, and am prone to seizures. However, I am taking medication, and have been able to handle watching at the pub. But probably need an official okay for a stadium.

Yours is still actually 3pm on a Saturday .

 

One of 10.

So there are 14 different kick off times over 5 days for 32 games. 

The people at the FA who sanction this should be prosecuted & charged with ruining the greatest day in football's season

Tigers at home Saturday 11th, but it's a 8pm start. 

 

Not sure if that was intentional incase we got a home draw, or if ours could still move date.

surely it will get moved, i cant remember the last time we've played at home the same day as Tigers

A few years ago but I can’t remember exactly when. Maybe 3-4 years ago. A fair few people went to both games. So it is doable.

What exactly is "extended highlights"? Is that basically like MOTD?

Sort of yeah. Tamworth v Burton had Extended Highlights in the last round which surprised me a little as I thought that’d be a certain tv pick given there’s only 15 miles or so between the towns. That said, it would mean Tamworth would be picked for rounds 1, 2 and 3 had that happened!

 

They show about 20 mins of the game. The program was about 6pm Sunday for the last round

I think so too. I remember doing both I just can’t remember when. It was rugby first and we played later on. But there may have been a longer gap between the two games though.

I think our 20k gate will probably mean they'll OK it.

Why 20k? Unless ticket prices are extortionate which I cannot see happening it will likely be 25-28k ?

Think it has already been. Given 3.00 KO on the Saturday

They'll think £30 for adults and £20 kids is reasonable.

 

Then when no-one turns up you get halfwits like Sutton going "the cup is losing its magic"

[Bert]

2pm, Sat 11th. 
 

£10 Adult STH/Member, £8 senior/u22, £5 u18. 
 

50% on top if not a Member or STH.

Cant moan ( too much, I'm sure folk will) at that time and pricing.

Get the kids in and fill it👍🏾

[The Doctor]

2pm kickoff on a Saturday feels weird as hell but reasonably priced

[Voll Blau]

Credit where it's due, that's priced really well.
