    Even better if Fergie had one eye on the Cup Final, funny how Man City can play that week and their not in Europe.

    tricky playing teams due for a cup final though
    everyone is fired up because they want to be in contention to start at Wembley

    He'd rest key players, as he'd want to make sure they don't get injured, same way as we want players available for Blackpool.

    They would still be in the hunt for the title though so his team won't be that week
    anyone that would play would have been in with a shout for the starting 11 for cup final so playing the game on Tuesday 19th April works for me :)

    We may need key players for the run in, playing Man Utd that late in the season and getting a hammering isn't exactly great confidence. It had to be played then, Man Utd have possible champions league semi finals to fit in as well, that week was the only safe bet and it works out well for us both. The clubs have to agree, its not a case of SKY choosing when we play it, its the clubs that decide when is best and they have come to a decent agreement.

    Bet the title would have been won before the Cup Final without the Newcastle game, in the bag for them from what I can see. You can also guarantee a key player will get sent off and miss the Blackpool match.

    your very negative mate!
    I think the title will go to the last day
    and playing Man Utd on the date that has been rescheduled gives us the best chance to beat them.

    Arsenal will win their game in hand and still have Man Utd at home to play, so it is likely to go to at least the last 2 games.

    Last two night-time weeknight games I went to were Blackburn this season and The FA cup 1-5 loss to Brum in 2007.... Good job I'm not going to the Man U game then...

    Would have said the best time to play them was in May, , if we'd played them then, hope your right though. not convinced Arsenal will win their game in hand as its away to Tottenham, and think Man Utd will beat both Arsenal and Chelsea.
