More Fixture Tweaks – Look Sharp

Filed under: Premier League Fixtures - Posted by: Andy

In case you haven’t been paying attention to Greek Fan’s impeccably updated twitter feed (Why not?), a few little fixture nuggets have traveled down the wires in the last day or so.

Perhaps most interesting is that one of the remaining few pending games being rescheduled into gameweek 34, giving us more double gameweek food for thought. The fixture to be played on Wednesday 14th April will be Fulham FC vs Stoke City.

Stoke will have two away days against Fulham and Wolves on the cards, while Fulham add the fixture in perhaps their most unappealing gameweek possible; their other match being against Liverpool at Anfield. That game on the Mersey could be postponed however if Fulham manage to snatch and grab a victory at Spurs in their FA Cup replay….

And finally, while we’re on the subject of the FA Cup – as predicted – two of the Premier League games postponed recently were indeed moved to midweek and therefore will stay in gameweek 34 as we had assumed. Our Season Ticker has been “de-greened” accordingly. Those matches being Chelsea vs Bolton and Wigan vs Portsmouth, as a point of interest.

All that is left to be seen is what remains of Aston Villa vs Everton, with news expected to be forthcoming sooner than later we can only imagine they will follow the trend.

“Alex Chamberlain played three games for the first time in his career. He had a stiff neck at half-time, so I did not want to take a gamble with him. Then we had a problem with Koscielny, and I wanted to give some playing time to Benayoun.”

Arsene Wenger explains why Van Persie wasn't substituted in the 7-1 win over Blackburn following pre-game talk of the Dutch hitman needing rest
