Southampton away
Meant to take place on Tuesday 28th January. Could it still be moved to the Wednesday due to the FA Cup 4th round? Phoned the club but the bloke on the line didn't have a clue.

Back in the day, cup replays were often held on the Tuesday/Wednesday after the original tie but these days the police demand at least a weeks notice. So I think a replay would be 4th or 5th February.

Re: Southampton away
I'd suggest the answer is 'yes'. I don't think replays are an issue - it's more that if we're in the fourth round, and the TV gods decide that our game (or Southampton's) is to be played on Sunday, then the Premier League might move the match to the Wednesday night. I'm pretty sure this has happened before.MK Gould wrote:I think that the answer is no...Chips and Chocolate wrote:Meant to take place on Tuesday 28th January.
