they haven't decided which ones will be televised yet, so means nothing...

True, and surely it aint gonna be a 3pm kick off?

[aintforever]

Midday Sunday I expect.

[St Marco]

Nah this has got sunday 12.45 written all over it as they will want to limit the amount of people in the city i.e shoppers etc.. Having it at 3pm on saturday is just asking for "extra" trouble imo.

Midday or around that time on either day IMO - when did the previous cup game kick off a few years ago?

An early kick-off also restricts drinking time.

Yep, that was the best game against them at St mary's, the place was jumping, I expect the atmosphere to be even better this time and if it is an early kick off and pubs are shut just have a skinfull at home or on the train and sing your ****** off.

[Block 5]

I agree with all the other posters - this will be a Sunday lunch time kick off.

High noon, Saint's Valentine's Day Massacre.

Last FA Cup tie was Saturday 12.30 for TV. Expect the same as that is the tv slot.
