Just been looking at the FA site...

https://www.thefa.com/competitions/thefacup/fixtures

There are five replays pencilled in for next Tuesday (7th Feb) but only four of them seem to have a chance of being changed?

Am I thinking correctly that the Sheff Utd v Wrexham game is going to be nailed on for TV seeing as though it doesn't state theirs might change?

Or maybe the other 4 are subject to change because the TV companies want them! There is a potential for it to be on the Wednesday night.

its not a conspiracy, its the viewing figures that Wrexham will undoubtably bring in with their new found support in the u s of a! search fa cup on google and you'd have thought that they'd won that, the Americas cup, 6 nations and the Ryder cup all at once there's that much coverage.

its unlikely to be sheff wendy and Blackburn v brum is tomorrow. id say its down to tonight's game also. we're hardly a glamour tie to the neutral but, we are the 2nd lowest ranked team so who knows

All the other ties involve clubs with huge populations. Grimsby v Luton is the only one of the ties between two towns. It would probably draw the smallest audience.

Not entirely, Grimsby / Cleethorpes and Luton are both considerably bigger than Burnley and Ipswich respectively.

That's interesting Poojah, given what crowds they get. Ipswich is similar to us, on the coast out on a limb. It demonstrates the potential of a successful football club here in Lincolnshire with the right investment

Completely different - Ipswich is the only league club in Suffolk and the only one Suffolk has ever had. Same as Norwich in Norfolk. Nearly all football fans from those two counties will support those two clubs. It would by like Lincolnshire without Lincoln City and Scunthorpe ever having been League clubs. Remember Lincoln are as old as Town. The support in the county has always been split in 2 and since 1950 in 3 (and that’s ignoring Boston).
