    Friday 29th September
    Blackburn v Leicester

    So do we play Sunday / Tuesday, or do Blackburn play Wednesday/Friday?
    Wouldn't be surprised if one of the league games get moved, but failing that Blackburn hopefully forced to play Wednesday/Friday and they field a very weak team for the cup game.



    Having now said that, we'll be playing on the Tuesday :hehe:

      Sunderland v Cardiff has already been moved to give the SoL an extra 24 hours to recover from an England Women's game on the Friday night. Blackburn v Leicester brought forward for Sky.

          I imagine it’ll be the Tuesday. Blackburn won’t want to play Wednesday / Friday

            Why would we want to play Sunday/Tuesday? They're at home for both, whilst we're away for both which is also a significant factor.

              As the home team I’m sure they can come up with a reason as to why Ewood Park is unavailable on the Wednesday

                Blackburn v Leicester has been moved to Sunday 1st October. So that should allow for Blackburn v Cardiff in the Carabao Cup to be played on Wednesday 27th September.

                  The Blackburn site has the game scheduled for Tuesday 26th. Is this likely to be moved to the following day?
