Right, not sure if it's been mentioned, but our Sunderland match presumably is subject to change from the Monday. If either clubs' FA Cup matches go to a replay, then they will be scheduled for 2/3 February.
As things stand, we are due to travel to Sunderland on Monday 1st February (obviously with TV coverage).
Does anyone know what has happened in similar past circumstances? It seems a bit silly of ESPN to arrange a televised match on the Monday unless they have a contingency plan up their sleeve.
I doubt either Stoke or Sunderland would be made to play two games in three days.

teams have played on a Saturday and then on a Monday cus' of TV..Thing QPR did couple of weeks ago.
What might happen is that it'll get moved to a Sunday and ESPN will lose thr tight to show the game, like they did with Everton Vs somebody, which meant that the TV slot was open for anyone to purchase, so sky brought it and are shoing the Arsenal Stoke game, in other words, I think we'll play on the Sunday and SKY sports will show another match on the Monday night! one where the amount of times they have been/are sceduled to be screened wont be taken into account

Stoke would, we've got Arsenal in the cup don't forget and anything that gives them a helping hand will be good for Football and the FA  |

The Everton game situation was that it was scheduled for ESPN coverage at 5.30pm on Saturday, got a UEFA Cup game on the Thursday so it got moved to the Sunday and kept its ESPN coverage and Sky, who were going to have two Sunday afternoon slots moved the one that clashed with the new time for Evertons game to the 5.30pm ko on Saturday and picked Stoke v Arsenal for it  So your half right A_teen but your having a smite for giving out false information |

So your half right A_teen but your having a smite for giving out false information Surely he deserves an exalt for his half correct information to balance it out? I've used mine up to smite him earlier so can't give it him now |

I don't think we will, but Sunderland at Pompey/Coventry is very 'drawable' I reckon.

I really fancy a replay against Arsenal, I said that once the draw came out of the hat. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
