If they rearranged it for after the cup final where would the league game arranged for that weekend go?
It would make sense to schedule it now for 19/20 April. If we get through the FA Cup QF, put the Villa game the week before the cup final, then if we get to the cup final put Southampton back a few days.
But sense doesn't come in to play it seems.
It was already known in advance that Chelsea v Norwich on the same weekend as us v United would be played next Thursday if either side progressed to the QF. So why can that be arranged in advance but ours cant?
