Arsenal Replay

[originallambrettaman]

The Express need to catch up. I said this is likely yesterday (of course, I could be proven wrong).

The Express article was almost yesterday, it was posted at midnight.

Does anyone know when we, Hull City, are going to play Arsenal in a replay at the KC???

Definitely before we play Watford in the next round at the Emirates.

We're not. It's been called off.

Chappers is about to go live on Sportstalk, presumably to apologise for his slip.

Didnt realise FC are playing at the KC Thursday night. Not good for us to be playing on it 24 hours later.

Not good for FC to be playing on it at all.

Ipswich reporter been interviewed. Well played sir. Refused to be drawn on his own teams weaknesses, just stated their positives.
Pity our lot are incapable of this.

 

[John Ex Aberdeen now E.R.]

Brucey going to be on 5 live about 7.10PM

How ****ing hard is it to decide a replay date ffs

 

[AlRawdah]

Arsenal are live on Sky on the 12th, so it's unlikely to be then.

They wouldn't play that league game if they qualified for the Sixth Round. Don't think that being assigned to Sky is a constraint.

Probably waiting until tonights match is over

True, but I think they'll be happier to move it for a quarter final than just a replay and I suspect they'll want the replay sorted before the quarter final weekend anyway.

I suspect that Monday 7th is the preferred date with everyone except Arsenal, who'll be trying to get it played on another day.

 

[AlRawdah]

The 7th is the only plausible date available if it's televised. Unless Arsenal fancy the Friday between our Brum match and their Spurs fixture.

 

[Mr G. Raff]

I'm praying for the 7th, I had bought tickets for the Brentford game on the 8th before realising we are on North Sea Ferries for a mini cruise and had to get a refund. So if it is the 7th we can go to the replay and then also see Brentford on another date as well as going on our mini cruize......please please please let it be the 7th .

 

[Cortez91]

The game will be live on the BBC.

The replay is televised too, admittedly on a different net work, but tough luck for Sky in that case. BT or BBC would have televised the 6th Round clash anyway.

I could be wrong - people on here are often reminding me of how often this is the case - but I don't think you can have a game 24 hours after another fixture? I think 48 is the minimum.

If it was that Friday, the Birmingham game would have to be moved, another one that Sky wouldn't be happy about.
