FA Cup TV games

Sun Jan 26, 2014 6:14 pm

With ITV and BTSport ususally having 3/4 games between them over the weekend, is there a chance that our game will be moved?

I imagine that Man City v Chelsea and Arsenal v Liverpool will be shown live, but I think the only other games that may be shown are our game (because its a prem team vs last years winners) or the winner of Sheffield v Fulham or the Forest replay!

No doubt the big teams will be on. Think ours might be on, possibly Swansea Everton

I think one will get a big game each, wouldn't mind betting ITV will get our game.

This week sometime probably. Since it's only 3 weeks away tickets will have to go on sale very soon and they won't put them on sale until they know when the games will be played and times

There will be 5 live TV matches, 3 on BT Sport and 2 on ITV. We have a good chance of being one of those.

Everton v Swansea will probably be the Sunday game, as Swansea are in playing in Europe on the Thursday before the Everton game.

Will hurt our attendance if we are on TV.

What crowd are you all expecting for that game? Cant see Wigan bringing more than a few hundred down!

Im guessing 15k if we are on TV and 19k if we arent :thumbup:

Always winners and losers when games are moved, but I really hope that our game is on the Saturday. Preferably not on TV, either.
