Naylor announced a few weeks back that the likely announcement date would be Monday 19th

Is that because both clubs would prefer to play weekend of 20/22 April, rather than the midweek before. Cant see any other reason to delay the announcement. If so, I thought the clubs have a duty to rearrange fixtures at the earliest opportunity, albeit weekend would be much better for fans?

I Guess so.
City are due to play Swansea that weekend
We are due to play Spurs.

If Swansea & Spurs go through but we don't then that weekend is free for us and City.
The City game is already down as a TV game, and our planned game v Spurs that weekend has been moved to Friday Night.
So in this scenario we would no doubt be playing at City on the Friday Night.

Swansea & Spurs play each other, both can't go through.
If Spurs win, swansea play city that weekend.
If Swansea win, we play Spurs that weekend
If we lose we play spurs that weekend if they are also out. If we win, we play semi final that weekend.

Basically, our last 3 games could well be City, Utd and Liverpool - so we'd better get the points required for safety pretty sharpish.
