Supposed to be announced this Friday 25th January.

We only have four games in March:
02-Mar Huddersfield Town H
09-Mar Crystal Palace A
16-Mar Cardiff City H
30-Mar Southampton H

Only the Palace game looks attractive for TV to me, but they seem to love to show a "South Coast Derby" more than they do a proper rivalry so wouldn't be surprised if Palace stays where it is and Saints is on the box?

Hope they don't move Palace as it's currently on my birthday.

Two ways of looking at that. Winning would make your birthday great, but losing would totally bloody ruin it!

Bloody exciting thinking about it though. I'm willing to take the risk!

Reckon Palace could be the Super Sunday early KO.

Difficult to see much there in terms of a story worth telling. The only side likely to have much going on is Cardiff, and their battle for survival.

Pretty sure they will pick the Liverpool and Man City games just because they will hope it is a proper two horse race by then. And they will it hard not to cream themselves over Arsenal v Man Utd. Can't be many games between the top six that haven't been shown this season?

From March every Liverpool and Man City game will be televised regardless of the opposition, Sky/BT would hate to miss out on a story of one of them slipping up and handing the advantage to the other.

I can see Chelsea game being picked, Wolves have been pretty decent against the top 6 this season.

Given Sky's record of making it as difficult as possible for people to get to matches they'll pick either Huddersfield or Cardiff for an early kick off. I would imagine that police advice will preclude the Cardiff match being a late kick off on a Saturday or a Sunday (well I hope so anyway)

The MET won't be happy: 3 big London home ties. At least one will have to be moved to midweek (us maybe?) or Sunday, probably ARSvUTD.

Europa league on 7th, so that's arsenal and Chelsea games on Sunday if they are still in it.
Liverpool and city on Saturday.
Leaves possible Friday or Monday.

The Cardiff game will be moved due to our involvement in the FA Cup QFs (optimism or what )
