[edit] Worth noting that the fixtures 6-7 March are subject to teams participation in the sixth round of the FA Cup. As its stands, no fixture is safe!

Liverpool saying their new monday night fixtures on 8th AND 15th are both subject to the Cup - presume the latter would be because of a tues/weds replay.

Depending upon result either Man Utd (v West Ham) or Man City (v Chelsea) will be postponed on the same weekend.

I don't see it mentioned but the Man Utd v West Ham game on 27th February needs re-arranged. Current games with no date include (according to my spreadsheet):-

Man City v Everton
West Ham v Wolves
Hull v Aston Villa
Man Utd v West Ham

[SamD]

Premier League today confirmed the final round of TV selections for March.

One of these is Hull City v Arsenal on Sat 13 March: kick off now is 5.30pm (formerly 3pm) - live on ESPN

Any info on when Man U/West Ham game will be rescheduled for ?

With both teams out of the FA Cup I would have thought that would have provided an opportunity. Next round of cup fixtures on Sat 13th Feb may be too soon but next available FA Cup weekend perhaps ?

[reds363]

13th of Feb is also 3 days before Man U visit Milan, so guess Fergie will hope not to play it then.

There are no more free FA Cup weekends (a full round of prem games is scheduled for QF weekend) - more likely is they'll play the MU-WH match on one of the midweeks that's reserved for replays (24 Feb or 17 Mar)

[cam23]

Thanks reds.

Would like to think they will make a decision and announcement pretty soon.

[SimonS]

Man City v Stoke on Sat 13th, so police unlikely to allow Man U on Saturday.

Man U won't want to play Sunday due to Champions League on the followng Tuesday.

So I suspect it will be re-scheduled for later

[Darbyand]

SSN and BBC site confirm Utd-West Ham is 23rd Feb.

[tommymooney]

two re-arranged Watford games that will no doubt shortly be added to Bram's championship fixture grid.

Watford v Swansea now 9 March - following a frozen pitch cancellation

FA Cup 5th Round replays could cause fixture changes

ITV are showing Inter Milan v Chelsea on the Weds 24th

So I guess ITV may ask for a Thursday replay???

They have shown one replay on ITV1 and one on ITV 4 in prior round

[Judio]

Sunday 21st Villa v Burnley (Maybe problem if Villa play Palace on the Tuesday)

Monday 22nd Blackburn v Bolton (Will be a problem unless
Spurs v Bolton is on the Thursday night)

Blackburn v Birmingham
Pompey V Chelsea
Fulham v Stoke
Now postponed from March 6th due to FA Cup

More may follow (but 4 clubs in last 8 could be already playing each other so we may only lose
five matches)

This does, and it is.

ITV have asked for Stoke v Man C on ITV 1 next Tuesday

FA have yet to confirm this as Man City are playing on Sunday 21st
which cant be moved as Liverpool their opponents are in Europa League this Thursday.

Man C will not want to play Sunday and Tuesday so ITV will have to pick someone else instead....

[reds363]

In all four replays, at least one of the sides has a fixture on Sunday this weekend, so no-one will be able to move to Tuesday

If pushed, I wonder whether the Villa vs Palace match may get moved to Tuesday? Villa are at home on both days, the Sunday kick-off is 2pm so not as bad as 4.15, plus the earlier replay would allow an extra days preparation for the Wembley final the following Sunday.

Every Cup quarter-final is live on ITV1:

Saturday 6 March
Portsmouth v Birmingham City - 12.30pm
Fulham v Bolton or Tottenham - 5.20pm

Sunday 7 March
Reading or West Brom v Crystal Palace or Aston Villa - 1.45pm
Chelsea v Manchester City or Stoke - 4pm

And on Tuesday March 9 Portsmouth play..... at home to Birmingham

It happens all the time

Stoke, Man City as well at the moment

Also Stoke are playing Tue 9 March at Burnley so this game will likely move back to
Weds Mar 10 if they are at Chelsea on Sunday 7th
