That's better.

Is this definite? Have both Hull and Brentford agreed to move their other fixture on that day then?


Who has precedence here anyway? Obviously the european CL takes precedence over domestic competitions (Now where have we heard that before? ;) ) even when we're not playing on the dates. You'd think that the PL would take precedence over the FL due to being the higher league but when the FL club has a ridiculous amount of fixtures to play, does pragmatism prevail?

I agree, it's definitely a question worth asking.

Too many people in here are assuming we'll get what we want just because we're Arsenal and we're somehow immediately more important than everyone else. Other teams will be affected by this replay too, not necessarily just Arsenal and Hull.

That aside we was poor in attack if I'm honest. I thought Iwobi and Welbeck were our only really threat whilst Campbell and Walcott didn't offer an awful lot at all.

Personally I think all this weeks planning in training has been focusing on the game for Barca and we underestimated Hull a bit today.

We'll do them at the KC.

So Wenger couldn't get the players focused?

Anyone not focused should be dropped then

I believe this rematch will be played 1-2 March, no? Accordingly, why hasn't our league game against Swansea been moved yet? Still scheduled for March 2 on Arsenal's website when it's exactly a week away...

Wish they'd get a move on. And apparently the Swansea game won't be moved so its more likely to be Monday the 7th, 48 hours after the NLD.

doesn't really matter in terms of personnel, we'll be playing a similar side to what played in the first match

only a concern for the travelling fans

Replay confirmed as taking place on Tuesday 8th March, 7pm kick-off, live on BT Sports

I assume the 7pm kick-off and it being shown exclusively on BT Sports is to appease the fat cats at UEFA that minimal viewers will be stolen from otherwise watching the Champions League.

I hardly think many in the UK want to watch Gents vs Lord Bendtner's team opposed to the FA Cup holders.
