That's what I think too. It makes no sense for Sky/BT to do that schedule for May 4th weekend, if they haven't heard before.
All 4 teams in our half of the draw (us, utd, barca, porto) are scheduled to play Sunday 5th. The other half of the draw only Ajax are Sunday. City & Juve scheduled for the Sat 4th, and spurs the Monday who will do a straight swap with City if needed.

Worth noting that La Liga & Liga NOS haven't actually confirmed the fixtures for the w/e of 4/5 May. Sunday's the default.
Ajax have their domestic cup final on 5 May. Not sure how flexible that date is. Could be a potential complication.

Train was about 20£ each way when we looked mate. It’s about 6 hours but that could be a fall back option.

Where did you book the train mate?

Think we booked with OUI.

i've just had a look and its 45 one way now.

edit: does depend what journey time you want but there are some for as low as 35£ on cp.pt

Yeah thought it may have gone up, my own fault for last minute. Nice one mate.

Anyone happen to be on the Gatwick to Bordeaux to Porto flight on Tuesday (11.20am arriving at 5.05pm). I no doubt will need some entertainment in the 2 hour layover...

Didn't they say as well that IF United and Cjty get through then our legs are reversed so we play at home first?

Bloody hope now - for both reasons!

If we are to play Barca in the semis, is that date for the match set at 30/04 or 01/05. Is there any possibility of a switch?

No will be one of those two dates

When would the dates be finalised?
Frustratingly, I'll still be away if it's right after the game.

If United go out Tuesday night can't they notify earlier than Thursday?

In Vigo already

For anyone else going without tickets, are you planning on watching in bars or going in the home end?

Just at airport flying out to Porto which looks lovely tomorrow and then warm rain for day of match $:-\$ better than cold rain last time

felbridge · « **Reply #460 on:** April 15, 2019, 04:32:27 pm »

I get into Porto like 9pm tomorrow - will likely miss the footy on that night but is there anyone going to a sports bar or anything that night? Don't fancy just heading to the hotel straight from the plane.

TelAvivRed · « **Reply #461 on:** April 15, 2019, 05:51:14 pm »

Live in Portugal and coming up late afternoon tomorrow.
So any idea from last year where you're going to gather.

And also, yeah no ticket - so a pub or bar with some red company on match night would be great.

Or can I just walk around and it'll sort itself out?

Alan_X · « **Reply #462 on:** April 15, 2019, 08:55:07 pm »

Missing it this time - hope the weather is better than last time.

RedSue · « **Reply #463 on:** April 15, 2019, 09:39:09 pm »

We went to a couple of sports bars last time both fine for watching the football and had reds in each time

Naa, that Bonaparte place is 5 minutes from my hostel - quite a schlepp.

Been there. Lot of bars in those streets.

2 stops on the metro mate, not worth walking it. After they finally let us out last year it was dead easy. Back in the hotel bar then for some drinks and scran
