Now the game appears to have been moved back to the Sunday, why might the Kick Off time alter slightly. City kick off at 12.15. so slightly doesn't make much difference does it?

City play Walsall, who have nothing to play for. Competition fairness rules dont apply in this situation. They move their KO to say 6pm on the Sunday, we move ours forward to 11.30 am on the Sunday morning?

You have to feel sorry for BT Sport here, surely, when somebody asked them to move our potential game the police were already aware the 82er's planned on having their bus parade? Although I'd of thought it far easier to police a bus parade and a football match than two football matches?

They move their KO to say 6pm on the Sunday, we move ours forward to 11.30 am on the Sunday morning? City cannot change their KO time on the Sunday. I read somewhere (I think it was on twitter) the other day that on the last game of the season FIFA rules state that all games in a league must kick off on the same day and the same time. So City have to kick off at 12:15 with the rest of their league. Like all of the games in our league will be kicking off at 5:15 on Saturday. Now the police have made their mind up and said we can play on the Sunday (IF we are even in the P/O's), I just hope we make the final. Can you imagine some of the scenes where City will be celebrating winning the league on the same day as we MAY fail to get to Wembley. There are idiots on both sides and I can see potential trouble. The best think would be to be played on the Monday and get that lot to move their bus parade to another date as its not that important.

Although I'd of thought it far easier to police a bus parade and a football match than two football matches? According to the conference tweets last night, the potential Rovers game was moved Sunday to Monday by the police due to Citys game and everything was in place for our Monday game. It wasnt until Saturday evening apparently when City planned their bus parade and the police changed their mind and wanted us to no longer play Monday. I get the impression the police would rather us play on a different day and not Sunday or Monday, however the conference has said it can only be out of these 2 days. So the police had to make the decision of us playing the same day as City or play on the same day as their bus parade.

Eastleigh and FGR are not too bad, but it could be Macclesfield. The only winners in any plan will be the plod getting all that overtime.
That's irrelevant anyway, we could be having an open bus tour that day too as champions.

Bus Race 2015! Arm the teams with spears and rocks, and race the two promotion buses around the centre. I'd watch it.

More importantly how the hell will tickets be ready for Wednesday then Sunday. Why have the Conference rushed the play offs into the first 7 days after the season and then the final us another 2 weeks away. Poor planning!

Dont know why the first legs cant be when the second legs are currently scheduled for. I would assume they would be doing tickets for the away leg to personal callers to the shop only.

Says Sunday on the conference twitter feed. Just cannot see how it could work us playing the same day as City, both of us with sell out crowds, we've never played the same day before. It's a disgrace how the police and football authorities would let a bus tour take priority over a play-off match. The conference have been saying for the last week or so that our game was on the Bank Holiday monday, i'm away on a stag weekend until Monday morning, will be well and truly shafted if it's changed yet again. Looks like you're missing out then old fruit.
You can thank DC for that, had he played the best player in the squad more regularly instead of disgracefully consigning him to the super sub role we'd have won the league by now.
Had he utilised his loan players properly, not played negative football and not played players out of position on Saturday we'd be going into Saturday odds on favourites to win the league.
Suppose you can say without him we wouldn't be in the playoffs in the first place, which also stands up as without him we wouldn't be in this god awful league in the first place.
Have a top weekend with the lads, hope they're not all like you.

Westcontry -- Yes we have played at home on the same day before.Think it was in 1970 City home to Wolves while Rovers entertained Luton in the cup.
