Semi final weekend that. Very likely they will be in it.
If so as in addition to my other thread that’s potentially just one game between 9th March and 13th April!

Trust us to get screwed over by other clubs' cup runs
Perhaps they can rearrange Brighton for that weekend! (after they lose in the next round!)Quote:

If Man City keep progressing in champions league also then our game v them could be tricky to rearrange.Quote:

I think your spot on, our quality players are short in numbers ,squad has not real depth , and those we are playing are being run into the ground.Quote:

On the other hand in the last 2 seasons we’ve had enough excitement in the league.
Domestic top flight games aren't allowed to be scheduled on champions league nights so it wouldn't make a difference.Quote:

Any fantasy football obsessives will know that the cup causes double gameweeks, which is what this will become.
The Man City game would probably be rearranged for midweek before the last day of the season, which would make our last two games Man City away and Man Utd away.
If Brighton dont get thru, they are due to play Spurs away on 6th AprilQuote:

The problem is that there are very few gaps for games to fit in.Quote:
