Think we'll play leicester. But you might be right.

It seems unlikely that we would play a Saturday evening match in London during the mourning period in the weekend before the funeral. I think some matches ‘might’ stand but not our’s. Which I don’t fully agree with or agree with postponements this weekend but it’s not my decision.

That's a shame. Would want them to play as many games as possible, so they burn out.

Disappointment could lead to a lack of motivation i guess.

Means they have 3 important players fresh for the NLD after the international break.

And in no way could this benefit be linked to their Brazilian DoF...

Yeah had that thought myself

Arsenal will get the fixture scheduling solution that most benefits them. We'll get fcuked over like a long first week in jail.

Shouldn't they have to forfeit then?

Only if they can't rearange it before the knockouts, i believe. That was our situation if i remember correctly.

 

[billyiddo]

there are no free midweeks until after the World Cup so you'd have to think the chances of them having that match replayed are minimal

Last seasons knockout was 17th feb. So might have till beginning of feb..

They'll have the league wrapped up by then.

The draw for the Knockout round play-off is November 7th so it will have to be played before that.

They need to be given the same bricky treatment as we did over Rennes

Interesting the difference here comparing a similar situation for us last season where we wanted a game postponed (think it was Leicester game?) so that we could play our Euro match. PL didn't agree to it and we had to forfeit (only for the PL game to get postponed in the end anyway).

Is there any rational reason why the Goons get this favour, when Spurs don't, other than the PL liking the Goons more than Spurs? I assume Levy is all over this.
