Got enough notice so probably. I haven't checked the rules.

26.1 All League Matches shall be arranged as soon as practicable.

Why not? A valid option, one which I don't like.Toes get frozen off in January and trains might still be on strike.

I'm not in favour of a winter break but I prefer afternoon games in January.

A date before makes more sense as otherwise the ones mentioned I think the only midweek slots are near the last three matches in April.

No point in showing it. Newcastle will be 150 points clear at the top and will beat us 26-0 although to be fair they will be winning 50-0 against everybody else by then. I'm sure that's on Newcastle is the centre of the ****ing universe.com

Does the Europa League have the same rights as Champions League, re no domestic football broadcast? I would suspect so.[/QUOTE

I am certain that we have played before when the Champions League games have been going on. I am sure that I read that the only matches not allowed are PL games.??

We can play that date, Sky just would not be allowed to broadcast it. At least that is my understanding of the rule.
