On what basis?Monday night AND not on TV? Jeez. Glad I hadn't booked this one up. Guess this'll be impossible to get back on the train from now. The club should compensate anyone who's already booked trains for the Saturday

Because TV selections were made a couple of days ago, along with the scheduling of every other match in the 3rd round being confirmed. Official FA Cup website listed (and still lists) our KO time as 3 pm Saturday. So it was a completely reasonable assumption to make that we would be playing on the Saturday.On what basis?
Anyway. why have the Premier League scheduled a game for New Years Day, knowing that the 1st Saturday of January is always FA Cup 3rd round weekend.
Aren't you all Related in those parts !!! Or is that just a rumourI'm from Ipswich! Are we related
yeah but when we get knocked out...SCENESI feel sorry for the fans who are inconvenienced by this, and if they feel that strongly about it they should boycott the game.
However, for me it's far more important that the game suits our players, not the fans, as they are the ones who are facing a ridiculously tough schedule currently. We play Chelsea on the Thursday night before Burnley away. No way can we perform to our maximum by playing on the Saturday straight after, and not really on the Sunday either.
Just as I would prefer wherever possible our Lge games to be played on a Monday night instead of a Sunday after Europa games, so I'm fully behind this being on a Monday.
It gives us time to recover from Chelsea, yet also time to recover before the weekend game following the Burnley match.
So I congratulate the club (and Burnley) on this bit of scheduling, and look forward to us still being in the FA Cup for the following round.
Well if we get knocked out by Burnley, I won't be too happy, but I think we have a better chance by playing on Monday rather than Saturday.yeah but when we get knocked out...SCENES
Well I hope this helps some of our travelling fans at least to make the game.Tottenham Hotspur @SpursOfficial 3 mins3 minutes ago
