Russell Ram Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 The play off dates have been released this week: Sky Bet Championship – Match A Leg 1: Friday 13th May (7.45pm) Leg 2: Monday 16th May (7.45pm) Sky Bet Championship – Match B Leg 1: Saturday 14th May (12.30pm) Leg 2: Tuesday 17th May (7.45pm) I presume if we finish 5th as expected (Hull have a game in hand and have to play Bolton too..) we will be playing at home 12.30 on Saturday 14th May?

DEL Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 We'll find out about this very soon in the week or 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I'd argue that the worst scenario is to be the home side playing at 12.30 in the first match. The other three ties are night games under the lights, which makes for a much better atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ariotofmyown Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Think there should be 2 games on the sat rather than Friday night to give fans more chance of attending. Especially when games will be arranged at short notice making it harder to get off work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbadbob Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Putting fans before tele companies? Not anymore I'm afraid. It's all about the moola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouRams Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Owen Bradley tweeted the other day they've been told finishing positions don't decide which teams will play the Friday or Saturday. It will come down to sky, travel and policing etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id dare say us vs Wednesday would be a Friday because we are relatively local with easy transport links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gritstone Ram Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Have they said match A is 3rd v 6th and B is 4th v 5th? I haven't seen that anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its easy driving to Bournemouth from Sheffield too its all motorway or dual carriageway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
