Genuinely surprised to see that it is now live on Sky.

1630 kick-off, which is better than the 1200 we thought it would be following Arsenal’s progression in the Europa League.

So we'll already know what Cardiff have done? Not that it will turn out to be much of an advantage, though. :shrug:

It’s the same way next weekend too. We could potentially relegate Cardiff next Saturday if we win today and they lose their two games.

Could be chance of a valuable point if Arsenal field their second XI holding back the star players for the Europa Cup semi's .... a small chance but still any glimmer of hope is better than none

I shall be in Spain for this game and hoped to watch it on TV in a bar. I am staying at Lago Jardin just outside Torrevieja and watched a game v WBA in a bar in Orihuela but not sure if it is still there. I am sure that there was also a bar in Flitton Centre that showed football so if anybody has been there and can verify that either is still there or recommend another bar I would be grateful.

Europa League tends to be a second XI competition though. Top four will be more important to them.

There are so many unknowns and changes in Spain that it is difficult to keep track. A chap from Sunderland operated a private hire service and it was he who took us to the pub to watch the game but when we went back last year he had packed it in but no doubt the people in the English bar, even if that has changed hands, will perhaps know of a similar service.

They're three matches and a trophy from qualifying for the Champions League. They'll be up for it.

Bear with me on this.

Spurs win CL but finish 5th.

Chelsea or Arsenal to win EL and it should really be them in the final.

That means only top 3 qualify for CL so Arsenal finishing 4th could miss out unless Chelsea finish 3rd.

I think Arsenal will prioritise EL.

I thought the May games had already been chosen for tv?
