I'm confused by these. Does it mean that WHUvMU will only take place then if MU are still in the EL? What if they're not? Why is LIVvCHE potentially fluid if MU are still in the EL?

The way I read it was that I assumed the second proviso should read Liverpool not Man Utd?

Also that if United are by some miracle still in the EL then the WH match will be moved?

If MU are in the EL on Thu 5 May, their following weekend match would move to Sunday and hence the WH-MU match would have to move to Wednesday, swapping with Liv-Che to allow Sky to still screen both?

No more confusion now.

The only fixture changes will be if Man C play Semi Final on Tues 26th or Tuesday 3rd May

And if Liverpool reach Europa Semi

Still no date set for the QF Replay. Are we looking at Easter Monday or are the FA negotiating with uefa to allow another partial clash with a CL/EL game?

With the 2nd Sky game at 14:05 that means TFFers will have a single flange covering the 1405, 1600 and 1610 fixtures that day....

West Ham announced it last Friday. Seems they jumped the gun before UEFA cleared it.

Do Sky have a minimum requirement? I'm assuming BT is 0 or 1.

Man City v Stoke will move to Sat 530 slot if the first leg Semi is on Tuesday 26th April

Also the Arsenal v Norwich match on Sat April 30th could switch with Southampton v Man City if the second leg is on the Tuesday 3rd May

So we are guaranteed one more fixture change
