Who on earth was responsible for scheduling Forest and County both to be at home on the same day! Don't the EFL and The National League talk to each other?

Wrexham were limited to 1,900 tickets so don't be surprised if that's all we get. Possibly to do with keeping the ground under 10,000 supporters meaning extra restrictions.

Yeah came here to say this. Although I think they upped it to 2,000 in the end as they had 1,992 in the away end apparently.

Forest have got Arsenal in the cup so highly likely they'll be playing Cov (at some point) that weekend.

Well no because Cov could go through to the 4th round

We will be kicking off at 3am and comfortably home before any Forest or Coventry fans are up and about in Nottingham.

FA Cup 3rd Round Result: Coventry City 1-0 Derby County

Therefore Forest v Coventry is OFF. So it is looking increasingly likely it will be a Saturday 3PM kick-off for our trip to Notts County.

You have to feel sorry for Notts County today, got all the way to
Dover to have the game called off 2 hours before k.o. today
Surely the decision could of been taken sooner due to the conditions.

Definitely.


Have BT announced the February games yet? They might want our game with Notts County as the evening game.

The FA Cup fixtures should be finalised in the next couple of days so I guess we need to wait and see.

I can’t imagine BT Sport would put a National League match on live against FA Cup Football on terrestrial TV. They didn’t have a match on this weekend did they?

Only thought is will this be a pick for the Saturday lunchtime game? Can't aee they'll want it late on Friday or Sunday teatime. We'll be a complete afterthought so the TV and the police will decide when they want Forest vs Leicester and if that's on the Saturday then we'll get moved.

The issue is ITV have first pick of matches in R4 and BBC have second & third pick.

Will ITV pick Nottm Forest v Leicester as first pick or Kidderminster v West Ham?

For R2 and R3 BBC have shown 2 matches live on Saturday & none on Sunday. They had 1 each on Saturday & Sunday for R1.

So it might come down to whether ITV are bothered about showing Kidderminster or leave that match to the BBC.

I would think ITV would probably go with Forest v Leicester on the Sunday as it’s about viewing figures and advertising revenue for them. But we’ll see.

Advertising revenue. As much as you object ITV will get lots more money for that game than if they had used their 1st pick to show Kidderminster v West Ham.

The TV companies can pick whoever they want for the fixtures this round. Moving Forest v Leicester to the Sunday should pretty much guarantee a 3pm Saturday kick-off for our Notts County game (thank god), so they get as much leeway as they need for their other broadcast selections.
