1 There will be a further announcement on Monday April 15th

2 Sky have a contract which allows them to have 1245 games on a Saturday

Nothing the FA or Premier league can do about it

2 More to be moved

Reading v Man City and Arsenal v Wigan (Just chosen for TV last week :roll: )

from Cup Final weekend

Logic suggests the Tuesday AFTER (Or Weds if they dont mind clashing with Europa Final if Sky are showing one of them)

Arsenal said it will be the midweek after the cup final.

Late ko

FA Cup Final between Manchester City and Wigan will feature a late kick-off for second successive year:
  • 5.15pm, Sat 11 May; live on ITV and ESPN
Potential issues:
  • - lengthy pre-match 'drinking' time (cf Wigan-Millwall semi-final problems at Wembley last Sat)

    - missing last train travelling north if game isn't settled in 90 minutes

Why don't they just play the final on a Wednesday night under the lights? At least then it wouldn't feel like an afterthought.
