Game Moves... Or Has It - Ipswich Town News

Just minutes after hearing from two sources that next week's semi-final has moved to Tuesday 30th January Birmingham City are claiming otherwise. According to their official website the decision has not yet been taken.

Birmingham club secretary Alan Jones said: "The decision is still pending and we are awaiting a final decision."

Despite this we suspect that the game will be moved to January 30th, although the row probably has a few more rounds to run yet.
