Re: Fa Cup 4th Round - LIVERPOOL AWAY

Any idea how soon the TV schedule will be confirmed?

I'd love our game to be 3pm on a Saturday, hoping TV big wigs will be more interested in other games. Last thing we want is a Friday night / Monday night game.

I can imagine palace v Hartlepool, Bournemouth v boreham wood, Chelsea v Plymouth and Kidderminster v West Ham will be picked

Don’t know how many games are shown over the weekend though

Everton are at home as well so that will affect the scheduling, they cant both play on the same day.

Dont get too excited. Lower tier is one of, if not, the worst for away fans' view just about anywhere. Hopefully we'll get the upper tier, too.

I think there will be 7 live games, 3 on the BBC, 4 on ITV. Liverpool are big in terms of commercial interest so it'll be live. In seasons gone by, when FA cup rights have changed hands between BBC and ITV, ITV have been more likely to show the big clubs, even if their games have been straightforward, simply because of revenue.

I’ve heard it quite compact and feels smaller than it is….

It’s abysmal and quite dangerous when packed under the stand, building works going on there as well at present.

The upper tier obscures roughly one half of the pitch due to its angle. If you end up towards the back of the lower tier the view is terrible. Hence, get a ticket towards the front, get in early, stand your ground and think Grange End as everyone piles down the front anyway.....unless we get upper tier, too, which may help.

....and the "locals" only have one song, most of whom by the away end looked lost when trying to find their seats and on their first visit to Anfield, straight off a plane. Hence "stand up and enjoy yourselves" and "show us your visas" from the City fans.

loads of hotels aswell, mainly the chains, a few Hiltons, Jury's inn was right on the front which looked decent enough

I'd love to go but not in those conditions these days.

Booked Adelphi, not as glamorous as it used to be 100 years ago:hehe:, but very central, Friday to Monday (will have to book an extra night if we’re the Monday match). Sod the driving, so booked National Express, £41 return. Been looking to have a weekend away with a match chucked in but there’s not a lot of decent places in the Championship, Sheffield may have been a contender but Liverpool has come up trumps.
