I'm sure it must have been discussed before but i must have missed it. I know there is a back to the valley thing but thats Thursday isn't it and 5th Dec is Monday so what is the Friday match all about? It's a right pain in the arse tbh

Moved from the Saturday to avoid a clash with the local vets football and the possibility of England playing their last 16 match at 3pm3

I’m going cos it’s a Friday night, something different, no alarm the next day, couple of beers, nothing more.I know we all keep saying this, and will probably keep saying it as the season deteriorates further, but my interest is as low as I can ever remember.5

early call had to be made I guess as there's still a possibility that England could play at 3pm Saturday1

So the players get an extra days rest before the Stockport replay

Most games were moved well ahead of time to Friday evening / Sunday midday to avoid a possible clash with that game. Waiting to see where England finished in the group doesn't give anyone enough notice to sort out travel etc.4 -

4 L1 and 4 L2 games moved to Saturday lunchtime
1 L1 game moved to Sunday lunchtime by Sky
Interestingly 1 L1 game (Accrington vs Oxford) and 5 L2 games have stuck with the Saturday 3pm time1 - Sponsored links:

Me too. Last minute trip to sort a bit of business. Arrive Friday lunchtime - €40 return for me and the missus, it'll cost us more for the one way cab to Gatwick at silly-o-clock on Tuesday...2
