Other solution is Chelsea v Luton on Tue and Foolham v us on Wed. Chelsea unlikely not to make 11 changes anyway and Foolham 8+. Cannot see EFL agreeing to move 4 matches to make this work. EPL clubs will have to suck it up!

Cup game though we’ll get more space than that I think.

Easiest solution - swap Chelsea v Fulham to Sat or Sun and Brighton v Villa to Monday.

Maybe those that watched us last play Fulham in West London Cup get first dibs:-)
Worth watching argyle’s second goal for comedy purposes

For anyone who read my last post and thought “oh yeah I’ll enjoy that” You won’t.

The problem is that it seems that the games have to played that week. Probably because of a knock-on effect on potential ties with the clubs involved in European football. It is a one-off logistical nightmare.

The police will almost certainly block both games being on the same day, they cannot play before Thursday and that runs into problems with the weekend fixtures. Unless they move the Fulham/Chelsea game to Sunday.
Argyle v Exeter minutes away from penalties for anyone interested in watching that.

It’s not been a bad game to be fair to both sides. One R Curtis playing for Plymouth.
Lol Spit as jf we’d sell out our allocation for Cravan Cottage in a midweek EFL cup 2nd round fixture.

All are welcome. Bring a friend.
If the local Safety Advisory Groups declare the logistical strain too dangerous for a single evening, the EFL has the constitutional power to reverse one fixture. This would mean either Chelsea travelling to Kenilworth Road (Luton) or Fulham playing away at the Cherry Red Records Stadium (AFC Wimbledon).

They may not have the choice they will just get told
Excellent draw,and well done to the club with tickets first to those that went Saturday in the first round.

Not only would it not make sense from a footballing point of view for Chelsea (never give up home advantage) - it wouldn’t make sense financially. Bigger crowd at the bridge etc

Way too complicated - I’ll just wait till they actually announce all the dates for all the games.

You aren't allowed to give up home advantage in the FA Cup. Carabao Cup may be the same except in the case of flooding.

Silk - no team ever gives up home advantage unless they have to.

And Chelski aren't going to do that, neither will Fulham.
Looking online it seems either staggered kick offs - one 5:45 then next 8:15 or reversing one of the ties. Would make sense to switch the Chelsea/Luton game to Kenilworth Road.

I can confirm that Chelsea and Fulham cannot play the same night due to police advice. One will move to the next week.

If the Burton game gets moved I’ll be gutted as I’m off the Tues & Weds and booked the hotel, I hate Sky so much, already can’t go to Plymouth & Franchise games because they moved them 😩

Perhaps we should play our game at the Cottage at 2pm? After all, both sets of fans work from home...

Fulham will turn up with their latest Macbooks, although they might be delayed because their Ocado delivery is due
Chelsea game is likely to get 40,000 and ours about 12,000, given that police resources will be stretched by the Notting Hill carnival it would make sense for Chelsea to move

If both games are on the Thursday, they may stagger the kick-off times as they usually do for midweek PL match windows

Chelsea and Fulham's following games are also on the Sunday at 2pm, so both likely to be TV matches
