With the 1/4 final only being two weeks away when do we actually get to know about tickets, date/time? I know we are in the hands of the TV companies but be good to know so plans can be made.

Last night on the Peter Levy show, they said the match was on the 18th which COULD be a pain if the trains are impacted.
From the National Rail website:
"Industrial action for March and April 2023
More strike action has been announced by the RMT union. RMT members working for 14 train operating companies will take strike action on the following dates:
00:01 hours and 23:59 hours on Thursday 16 March 2023
00:01 hours and 23:59 hours on Saturday 18 March 2023
That could be good though because although travel on the day will be impacted, the trains are OK on the day before and the day after. But if the game is on the Sunday it may be hard to get down there on the day. We will wait with baited breath.

Trains are normally impacted after strike days too so bear that in mind, trains may not be at their originating point (due to the strikes) so can affect some of the services on that day. |

In 1992 it was on the Tuesday. I remember it because I was wearing my global hypercolour t-shirt. |

In what order are you expecting it to be? The fans will always be the last to know because every other detail needs to be sorted with all stakeholders before everything gets ratified. As someone hoping to go and also wanting to get organised with hotels and travel times etc etc I'm hoping details are published fairly quickly which I don't doubt everyone else will too, but I can't think of any scenario that exists in which the FA can provide any information until things are confirmed with everyone involved in the process. |

Does make me laugh when this is brought up. Yes fans are the absolute last concern. However what have fans ever done to raise it or protest again it? It's been happening for years now to a multitude of clubs with virtually zero fan opposition or even reduction in attendance. |

Much like everything else really. I’ve always said football often mirrors society… |

Not that I'll be able to get tickets (mariners trust member) but I have had a nosey at hotels and they're expensive! Also looked at making a weekend of it and doing chessington with my lad but that's not open. So IF I manage to get tickets I guess it'll be an expensive evening on the pier  |

Don’t know how old your lad is, but you’ve got Paulton’s Park near Southampton which would be more or less on your way from Taunton. It’s the home of Peppa Pig World (which they could equally call “two-hour queue for a three-minute ride world”), but the other half of the park is actually really good for kids aged 5-12 I’d say. Barely any queues either in my experience. I’m thinking of doing something like this as leaving my wife and kids all weekend, on Mother’s Day weekend of all weekends, ain’t gonna fly very well. |

He's 9. Thanks for that. I only want to do this because realistically he doesn't like going to the football so it's dangling the carrot so he comes and we do something we both want to do so it's fair.. I'm sure if I can get us tickets he will love it. Newport away he wasn't keen on the noise as he just wanted to watch 🙄 but I guess this would be totally different (ps he's never seen us lose) |
