It's looking unlikely...

That I can get to Plymouth. Trains are a nightmare and I'm literally trying EVERYTHING to get the day off on the sunday, just in case we play then.

Who's up for a hitch-hike?

 

At times like this my transfer to Plymouth uni finally starts to make sense. get in!

 

Phone in sick in budgens and get train The train is a pain in the arse coz for an hour and 20mins of the journey you are on a rail replacement bus, which i don't know if it will cope with too many fans. It also depends on k/o time, pleeease dont say im going to have to get a coach all the way to plymouth.

 

saturday 10/3 1500 ko, according to thefa.com

 

Oh dear, and what time does the FA give for the other three? Shock horror 3pm 10/3.

We are likely to play in the lunchtime KO on Saturday.

 

Actually mate they've changed it.

Chelsea v Spurs BBC 1 12:45 Sun
Arse/Black v Man City SS1 15:00 Sun

The other two matches not listed for TV.

 

Been updated since yesterday then, they were all listed as 3pm, my apologies.

 

not definite, but pretty sure they wont change

 

Still half in line with what you said though. They've probably not decided on their Saturday choices yet - though if the BBC choose Plymouth v Watford over a potential Man Utd game for Saturday prime time I'll eat a hat shop.

Well it's not, because nothings been confirmed.

 

Not sure it is.

Why in every round have they shown 4 live matches then in the Quarters go to 2? Doesn't make sense.

It could be they are still negotiating the schedule for sat. BBC will want manure at prime time, we may object due to transport issues for fans,.

 

Or are they waiting till after the replays next week (seems unlikely)

But Boro V Reading is not great Prime time, they would then surely want to show the little underdog against the Premiership big boys

 

LOL - they didn't show Plymouth v Derby live - and Derby are just one place below us

 

See new thread, 4 games on TV

 

well iv decide that im going to go to the plymouth game instead of the everton and charlton game i dont think i can miss a great day out with the lads

 

i really want to go but the only way im going is by sitting on the coach for hours, i will have to think about it.

 

plymouth away will be a tough game but I reckon we will be in the semi final draw...
