Play-off Semi Dates 21:34 - Mar 18 with 2013 views | Aviator | Any idea when these are announced? Don't need to know the precise KO date time - just weekend of. I have assumed w/e of 11th/12th for first leg and then 2nd leg 3 days later. But could the second leg be weekend of 18th/19th ? |  | | |  |
Play-off Semi Dates on 08:22 - Mar 19 with 1781 views | MeltonBlue | I was thinking this the other day, probably depends who plays who.. if it is us vs Norwich then can see it being the two weekends mentioned, however if it’s not then maybe the Saturday/Sunday and then the weds/Thursday night? |  | |  |
Play-off Semi Dates on 08:26 - Mar 19 with 1779 views | Steve_M | I'm assuming anytime from Friday night to Sunday lunchtime for Leg 1 and from Monday to Wednesday for Leg 2. I doubt we'll get told exact timing until fairly close beforehand. |  |

Basically, don't plan anything in May. |  |

This is my thinking. Was talking about going away with the wife in may, then had to say "hmm let's give it a think and see what's about nearer the time". |  |

Of course. The only derby in football that can’t kick off any time other than a weekend lunch time! |  | |  |
Play-off Semi Dates on 09:31 - Mar 19 with 1633 views | JakeITFC | I've booked trips for both of those weekends so some awkward conversations ahead for me potentially! My assumption was w/e following the season ends (most likely away for us) and then midweek at home. The Coventry cup final decision may allow them to drag it out longer, but I don't really know how early they usually announce the dates. |  | |  |

According to The Times today if Cov reach the Cup Final and the Play Off Final then the latter will be put back a week (ie to 1 or 2 June), which is different to what was mentioned on here previously. Not sure when they'd make that decision though. Obviously won't be before the semi (20 April) but if Cov do make the play offs I'd be surprised if that's mathematically certain before the last day of the season (4 May). So we could be on for some very late announcements about dates. (More realistically of course Man Utd win the semi and this is all irrelevant). |  | |  |

Snap, almost every season in recent memory has followed this convention. So 10th-12th away and 13th-15th home, providing they don't diverge from the norm. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Not in 2015 when we played Norwich - both games were Saturday lunchtimes. |  |

Yeah the "rule" has been broken twice in the past 10 or 15 seasons, 2015 and the July/August Covid year I think. Would the derby prompt another break from tradition? |  | |  |
