Interviewing post game Onana and Lindelof is like an episode from The Muppet Show. Question about the Liverpool draw and their response was about Aphrodite and how the alignment with Zeus will have an impact in our finances the next 2 months. 

Wocka Wocka!

Surely the 12:30 slot will be the least attractive for a tv audience, no?

  So wolves v cov.

Leeds had 5300 tonight

The rule says 15% of the capacity has to be given to away teams. So we should get 6k.

I always thought in recent times it was: 

Saturday lunch

Saturday evening 

 

Sunday Lunch 

Sunday evening
 

My reasoning behind the Saturday lunch is that Chelsea are already due to play in London that time and date. The tv coverage will want the two bigger ties (United Liverpool, Man City Newcastle) on the tea time slots. Wolves Coventry has potential for trouble so I’m sure the police won’t want a full day of boozing ahead of a game especially after the last West Midlands cup tie.
 

Pretty sure the Thursday won’t be in use because it’s a UEFA game week, even more so with West Ham at home to Freiburg.

I just hope we don’t have a section of fans,who do the same…

Entitled celebration before end of any match,or before descisions made…

 

It is bloody funny though…

wish we had some emoji stronger than..

[Gamble92]

That whole minute when Wes Morgan bundles into the net and the goal being disallowed took that much out of me emotionally that I actually struggle to watch it all back sometimes.

Is it bad that I fully fancy our first team to win at Stamford bridge?

Poch will surely get the sack as well if we do them. They'll have nothing to play for

Just putting it out there, if we win this one and end up in the semi finals with Man Utd, Newcastle and Wolves - I don’t see why we can’t win the thing!

[Trekerz]

Just imagine us and c*v scum both win and we get them in the semi's at wembley.

genuinely praying for that. Imagine beating them at Wembley to get to the final and also going up as champions whilst they stay rotting in the championship

I'll take that if it means Southampton moved to middle of April and not the midweek before.

Based on this logic looking Sat 12.30, will the tickets go on sale next week OR the week after as I am on holiday next week?

I admire your optimism!

Me, what I see is that in the unlikely event we beat Chelsea we'll be in the semis with Man City, Liverpool and Wolves, and we wouldn't get drawn against Wolves.

Fulham at home on the saturday evening to another London club almost guarentees that this is a Sunday tie I'd have thought

[Footballwipe]

Fair few variables for this game and when it'll be played:

• Pick order is ITV, BBC, BBC, ITV. We're definitely going to be third pick by BBC
• Man Utd-Liverpool has to be a Sunday due to Europa, meaning that the Man City game has to be a Saturday
• BBC will probably want to avoid the Six Nations games they have that day (2:15pm kick off). They might stick the Wales-Italy game on BBC2 though. Suspect they'll wait till 5:30 for the Man City game though
• West Brom are at home on the Saturday, so West Mids police may force the Wolves game not to be the same day
• BBC have Comic Relief on the Friday night, meaning only ITV are likely to use the Friday night slot if it was going to be used. Feel it's unlikely either BBC/ITV want to put any QF games on their secondary channels

So we could have Wolves on the Friday, Man City Saturday evening and us on the Sunday with the Man Utd-Liverpool game. Also wouldn't rule out a three-game Sunday and us getting some sickening 6pm kick off.
