Would that mean if we both go straight through or both go out on the 28th those dates still wouldnt be possible due to the need for 10 days notice or would that not be an issue as there is potentially a fixture that night anyway
Dont think its impossible. Both sides will wait til cup draws done monday night so start negotiations on tuesday. Im not sure if there are any regulations in terms of policing and travel and consequently how far in advance a date to be set
So realistically the earliest of those would be the 28th February. I cant see it being on the 24th January unless the 2 clubs have already agreed that date. I doubt a decision will be made before the 4th round draw or the announcement of Skys March games
