I see the FA Cup final is on Saturday 27th May at Wembley

What does that mean for the traditional bank holiday weekend Play Off finals at Wembley.

It'll be fine for us as we'll be going up automatically and will be able to rest a few players before the final.

So League One finishes a week before The Championship and League Two. That seems quite odd.

FA website says date for final still to be confirmed?

If you are right it could mean a Championship side playing in FA Cup final on Saturday and play off final on Monday!

Ok, that's confirmed then. Bit of a gamble that a Championship side doesn't have a good season. Two finals in two days might be a bit tough!
