Post copied from last season's thread as I'm sure that's what you meant. The semi-final dates are to be decided once the participants are known, but the FL website describes them as being between the 8th and 17th May. Sky will probably want to televise most (if not all) of the matches, so expect only one per day apart from weekends. Final dates are as per Sam's post, also moved.

tommymooney · **Posted:** 12 Apr 2009, 17:47

Thanks both, sorry for confusion :oops:

Interesting, as the FL site says they don't start until the 8th. Perhaps this is the Conference playoff?

Provisional Sky TV fixture list* says different, but guess dates are subject to change (when actual clubs involved are known, TV commitments, other local fixtures, police, etc).

Also, the Blue Square Premier (ex-Conference) play-off games are covered by Setanta.
