Quoted from GyMariner
Only positive is that it’s on a weekend


Is Friday night the weekend?

There’s zero chance the game will be on the Saturday. There’s a rail strike and earlier in the season Brighton had a Premier League home game called off because it fell on a strike day.

The 4 QFs are scheduled for Friday, Saturday (2 games) and Sunday. Man Utd have a Europa League game on the Thursday before so can only fill the Sunday slot. That leaves us on Friday night unless BBC & ITV decide to have 2 Sunday matches instead of the planned 1 match.

Is Sunday any better than a Friday night? One means missing work/family commitments etc to get there, and the other means missing work etc to get back, in all likelihood

They have all 4 ties on the Sunday at 12:00. Almost as if it's not been sorted yet!

So do Sheffield United, Blackburn Rovers & Burnley. So that rules out every tie from the Friday night, but there’s a tie scheduled for the Friday night (on BBC 1), so something has to give (either fixtures miving or BBC agreeing to a different time slot for one of their picks.

Quite certain we will be Sunday afternoon...

My prediction:

Sheffield United vs Blackburn - Friday Night (They will postpone there games on the Wednesday).
Man City vs Burnley - Saturday some point.
Brighton vs Grimsby - Sunday dinner or 2pm (Our game the Tuesday after then postponed potentially).
Man Utd vs Fulham - Sunday afternoon/tea time.

The premier league will oppose to Brighton's game being postponed on the Wednesday.
Man Utd will need to play on Sunday afternoon as they are away in Spain on Thursday night.
Man City will need to play Saturday, as they cannot play same day as Man U, as both at home.

The only other thing would be Man City on the Friday, as they play Tuesday so that gives them enough break and Sheffield vs Blackburn on the Saturday, but either way I don't think it changes for us.
I could imagine they would want a big team on each day aswell though, so expect Sheff U on Friday, Man City on Sat and Man U on Sunday.

FA normally like two games on the Sunday, so hopefully they change it this time and put two on the Saturday and we end up playing Saturday dinner time.

It is a mission to get to, of course, but looking on the brightside, it's one of the best cities in the country for a weekend away or a night out, in my opinion. Pretty special place.
