New date for Cup Semi now set

Good news for all those wondering when the new date for the Carling Cup first leg would be… the date is the 14th of January, next Thursday in old money with an 8.00pm kick off.

The second leg will still be on the 20th of January as originally scheduled.

One game that has had to budge to fit this into what is now a very tight schedule is the game against Fulham at Ewood Park – which has been knocked back 24 hours to the Sunday (23rd).

The game against Man City will still take place on Monday night as planned (17th).

I hope everyone has got that as my head now hurts.
