    Is that the earliest it's ever been? It's my wedding anniversary and I've never know a clash before.

    I thought it was more to do with finishing earlier for the World Cup?

    Indeed. It's usually a busy weekend for me as there's bike racing at Brands Hatch, we have a friendly and there's usually an Italian team in England I fancy seeing. I don't remember including a league fixture in there.

    Because the FA Cup has nothing to do with the Football League. It is run by the FA.

    They just said on the radio that we've had coldest spring since 1962 and should expect June to be unsettled :-(

    I'm away from 9th for a fortnight - it was the only time I could get. I dare say there will be 2 home games that I miss and a league cup defeat to Barrow in furness along the way

    My daughter booked her wedding for the 3rd believing it would be football free and now faces the prospect of a large number of guests checking the phones throughout the day.

    That's if you have a signal - I went to one near the of the season - it was actually a bit nerve wracking worrying about the score.

    Not that is mattered in the end.

    Ofcourse the game could be moved for Sky...
