It's pretty difficult to work out what the broadcasters want and what the police will go along with. For example, very few people would've expected Liverpool to be playing at the exact same time as the Grand National, yet Merseyside Police have OK'd it.

They were waiting until seeing if Swansea or Sheffield Wednesday got through. If Sheff Wed had won, their match would have been on the Sunday, since Sheffield United play at home on the Saturday. As Swansea got through, there are no scheduling issues and our game was able to be put on the Sunday.

I’ll be joining you in smug mode In all fairness, there was a reason for it not being on any day! But we all agreed Saturday was the least likely date, so everyone was correct (to an extent)

Crouch will have a field day against our centre backs

Nope, confirmed for certain that it'll be on the Saturday at 3pm.

The Leicester away game is on the same weekend as the FA Cup semi-finals, so that one could be moved as well.

West Brom may as well just stick with Pardew and let him rebuild in the Championship.

I'd rather we brought in their manager to be honest...

Out of the things he has said this season, that ranks as one of the more sensible things he said. Maybe it was a translation error on his part, but my interpretation of what he was saying is that a last-minute equaliser felt as good as a win on the day.

That game (them or Swansea against Tottenham) is likely to be on the Friday night. There will definitely a Sunday early afternoon slot as the one Sunday game so far doesn't start until 4.30pm (it wouldn't kick off so late if there wasn't another match before). I don't think there will be another Saturday game at all.

In addition, it can't be Friday because Wigan play on the Wednesday night.

The TV fixtures for April are due to be announced today, so the exact date will probably be announced then.

The referee literally stood still, the Burnley player ran into him. And, irrespective of that, they simply didn’t defend well enough at that moment. For a team that prides themselves on grit, steel and determination, what a bunch of whingers.

Pellegrino praised Sims for the impact he had from the bench. I think that gave it away that he’ll be a substitute again.

And there are people on here who mocked Kat for being on the heavy side, crikey he has changed!

That's what we thought when Lallana was thumping the badge, then he 'flipped like a burger'.

Yes

And the stats show Stoke almost bottom of the away form! That should make for an exciting and quality game... Something has to give on Saturday.

They will definitely come here and park the bus. I don't think it'll be a pretty game.

Discontent is rife down there. Not sure what they're moaning about to be honest, a solid consolidation season is good for them.

Brighton will get sucked back into it, they have a dreadful run of games at the end of the season. Same with Huddersfield.

I'll always support Southampton, they could be playing in the National League for all I care.

I think we'll stay up regardless but I'd like him to go now.

The service into him was crap all game, the only decent cross came from Sims and we scored from it.
