Bit of a joke mate really. Not like people need to arrange accommodation or travel.

When they didn't announce it Friday I thought they might just be wanting another round of games to help them decide but I'm worried now that they're going to wait for the cup semis to be sorted and give us 3 weeks notice.
That would be disastrous. Just forget about those four fixtures the semi finalists are in scheduled for the 18th that leaves six fixtures to pick from. Two shown live on Sunday so if one is our fixture make it the early kick off at 1400. But please, please not the Monday.

Yeah it'd be a new low even for the Prem. I've ended up making three different hotel bookings with free cancellation this afternoon as prices are going up by the day and it's expensive enough travelling up to Liverpool from down here anyway.

Thing is even if they wanted to pick one of those teams they could still show the rearranged game when it happens. Ultimately 3 of the games pick themselves:

Our match
Arsenal Newcastle
Chelsea United (shouldn't be a given this season but always will be)

So they only need to pick one more and none of them are a massively obvious pick. Relegation and title will be done by then and they'll have your neighbours on the final day for the trophy lift so makes sense that'd it be Villa or City game? Don't see why they can't just get on with it and pick one.

It'll be 3 Sunday games and a Monday night presumably so just have one of the Sunday matches as the one which might get rearranged, probably the graveyard slot.
 


Am I remembering wrong? Have we got any ashes in urns buried at Goodison?
From June 2004


AI Overview from search;

While ashes of Everton fans were once permitted to be buried at Goodison Park, this practice ended due to space limitations. As of 2004, the club had accommodated approximately 800 burials around the pitch, with no further space available. St Luke's Church, which backs onto Goodison Park, now has a remembrance garden where ashes can be spread.
