Matthew Le God Posted 12 March, 2011 Share Posted 12 March, 2011 Wasnt this going to be on Sky? No, it was moved to an earlier time in the day because of the England vs Wales game (football not rugby). It was never going to be a Sky game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubai_phil Posted 12 March, 2011 Share Posted 12 March, 2011 It was moved to an earlier time because Lambert, Lallana & Chamberlain will all be called up by England for the game against Wales. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 13 March, 2011 Share Posted 13 March, 2011 I'd be surprised if Plymouth call this off with the cash-flow problems they've got, international call ups that I mentioned about 3 months ago or not. The last thing they want is to delay money through the turnstiles for another month, and I'm pretty sure that at this kind of notice we've now only got April 19th left to play the fixture.

The BBC website is not now showing the game on the 26th as a forthcoming fixture for either club, but neither has it got any news story saying it has been postponed, and our club web site still shows the game as on, with no hint even that it might be postponed. Very odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last thing they want is to delay money through the turnstiles for another month, and I'm pretty sure that at this kind of notice we've now only got April 19th left to play the fixture. Having already booked up train tickets for this one, that is what I'm hoping, surely Plymouth will need some cash coming in from what must still be one of their bigger home games of the year, rather than putting it back a month. Having said that, reading the article it does seem like they'll be missing a fair few key players. Am I right in thinking that they don't need to announce if it is being postponed until a few days before hand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very odd. BBC hasn't had it on their fixtures since we announced the rearranged time, and LAST season they completely failed to put our away match at Brighton on the fixtures when we moved it forward a day, so I wouldn't read too much into that... it's been missing from the predictor for months, they obviously deleted it instead of moving it.

Saint_John Posted 14 March, 2011 Share Posted 14 March, 2011 Plymouth Confirm match Postponed, how many games in hand are we going to end up with. http://www.pafc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10364~2315199,00.html I believe there is only 2 dates that can be fitted in: 1/ The Tuesday before Brighton (19 April) or 2/ The Monday/Tuesday before Walsall (2/3 May) I hope it is (2) but I think the league will go for (1) (in case there is some bad weather in late April and they need to use (2) for something else). If it is (1) Saints will have to play 3 games in 6 days, therefore I HOPE THE CLUB CONSIDER moving Hartlepool back from BH Monday to a Tuesday night to give the players an extra days rest. (By suggesting that I bet that makes me unpopular with some on here). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trousers Posted 14 March, 2011 Share Posted 14 March, 2011 Looking at the other fixtures that weekend, I can't see our promotion rivals dropping (m)any points.... Friday, 25 March 2011 Brentford v Carlisle, 19:45 Bristol Rovers v Peterborough, 19:45 Hartlepool v Rochdale, 19:45 MK Dons v Walsall, 19:45 Saturday, 26 March 2011 Bournemouth v Charlton, 13:00 Colchester v Exeter, 13:00 Dag & Red v Sheff Wed, 13:00 Brighton v Swindon, 15:00 Leyton Orient v Yeovil, 15:00 Sunday, 27 March 2011 Huddersfield v Notts County, 16:00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sour Mash Posted 14 March, 2011 Share Posted 14 March, 2011 F**s sake, that is now Walsall, Hartlepool, Rochdale and Plymouth that I've had train tickets booked up for this year. Good job Saturday was such a good day out or I'd be well and truly ready for giving up on away trips. Don't think it helps our promotion push too much either.

I hope it's either May 2nd or 3rd as if we continue as we have done recently this could be the game where we could clinch promotion and we should be able to get plenty of tickets if that's the case. normal allocation is 2000 but I'm sure with Plymouth needing the money they could give us the whole end approx 3,000 if necessary as it's easy to segregate in that end of the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint1977 Posted 14 March, 2011 Share Posted 14 March, 2011 Getting silly now. They should just deal with national call ups, too many games have been postponed. Yet we aren't playing tomorrow night, why? We can assess our performances all we like, but it's becoming quite possible the pathetic fixture organisation could really harm us this season. Could end up with 4 or 5 games in hand. It doesn't help psychologically when you're always playing catch up. We slipped out of 2nd because of postponed games in the first place. No more! Agree totally Adrian, FFS. Did Saints have the option of vetoing this? Surprised the league allows it. I had sympathy with Plymouth before this but I don't now - hope they go bust. It is Plymouth's responsiblity to sign players that are likely to be available during an English season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had sympathy with Plymouth before this but I don't now - hope they go bust. It is Plymouth's responsiblity to sign players that are likely to be available during an English season. Absolutely ridiculous. It is a league rule that if you have 3 or more players called up you can postpone a game. Saints would have no option to object, it is a rule. As for Plymouth's responsibility to sign players available during the season - so if Guly, Fonte and Lallana for instance are called up you wouldnt want our game called off then ? Plymouth have no money, are in administration. I would think getting any player from anywhere is difficult enough. There are other teams and circumstances apart from Southampton you know.

If it's May then that would be their last home game of the season where crowds are generally up and they're very likely to be fighting for their League One lives. If that's the case it would make it a very tricky fixture for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly isn't, they'll want to give themselves every chance of avoiding relegation although it looks extremely unlikely anyway. Never know though, they're all pretty crap down that end of the table and one decent result could swing it for any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint_John Posted 14 March, 2011 Share Posted 14 March, 2011 The Zimbabwe fixture is a "Continental Qualifier" against Mali (26/3). http://www.fifa.com/associations/association=zim/fixturesresults/gender=m/index.html The 2 NZ fixtures are FRIENDLIES against China PR (25/3) and Japan (29/3) (may be called off). http://www.fifa.com/associations/association=nzl/fixturesresults/gender=m/index.html (I assumes Brighton will also be without Wood for their 2 games in this period ??). The Rep of Ireland web site makes no mention of an U21 game http://www.fai.ie/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=23&Itemid=41 the senior side are due to play Macedonia http://www.fai.ie/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=57&Itemid=32 so he may have been called up to this one.
