Do BT have a Friday night match too? Is there only one live BBC game and one live BT game over the weekend?

I think both BBC and BT Sport have two live games each.

One BBC and two on BT, the same as last weekend.

Undoubted knowledge? Or just the application of common sense and using my brain?

No, see my other post.

Three live games in rounds one and two. One on the BBC and two on BT.

Last weekend's games were Hyde v MK Dons (Friday, BBC), Shaw Lane v Mansfield (Saturday, BT) and Chorley v Fleetwood (Monday, BT).

That doesn't mean they will broadcast the next round at the same time, mind.

To be fair the Fylde v Wigan game is tie of the round - and fairly local for the BBC now based in Manchester.
Got a feeling we'll be Monday night on BT Sport.

Other than the Sunday afternoon slot the other 2 televised games are going to be awful travel wise if we were selected. Monday night is even worse than Friday.

If BT show a game on Saturday lunchtime, like they did last week, that’s a better time than either night match, apart from having to get up at the crack of dawn.

I'm expecting BT to show:

Wycombe vs Billericay or Leatherhead - Saturday lunchtime
Slough vs Rochdale - Monday night

BT have the rights to two second round replays I believe so there's a chance we could be televised twice if the first tie ends in a draw.

I think it's only fair to the fans to announce it as soon possible so we can make travel arrangements, any arrangements to stay over etc. The sooner we can get these sorted, we're more likely to get discounts on rail fares and hotels.

As stated above though, when have the fans ever mattered?

By the end of this week, if the last round is any guide. Given the BBC game was announced yesterday, it shouldn’t be long.

For travelling purposes it would make more sense to have those the other way round.

Only from our own selfish perspective of travel would it makes sense to choose Saturday lunchtime over Monday evening if televised by BT.

There would be a lot of Billericay/Leatherhead fans who wouldn't enjoy seeing their game on a Monday night and a trip using the M25/M40/M4 to Wycombe in the rush hour to get there.

Our game, whenever it is, also throws up a lot of safety and logistics issues such as:

1. What's the capacity? There is talk of a maximum for 2,000 which sounds about right. This is not a full time ground but a local sports facility adapted for 7th tier football.

2. What's the away allocation? Based on 15% of the maximum that's about 300.

3. How are RAFC going to allocate 300 tickets across a season ticket base of 5 x that. First come, first served denies a fair allocation to season ticket holders. Ballot (of one ticket per season ticket) makes it possible that a family applying for four tickets might not get four tickets. A difficult one for Russ Green and the club.

4. If a Saturday and Sunday game, how will Slough segregate properly if Rochdale fans who can't get into the game in the Dale end get into the home end? There are lots of exiles in that part of the world, some who will not be season ticket holders.

I believe we printed our own tickets for Barrow away last year so it will be likely that will be the case again. Slough do not have the infrastructure here and Gainsborough Trinity in the First Round also printed their own tickets.

My hunch is that the authorities will want to minimise the attendance and these issues. BT's choosing of games will help them.

A Dale game on a Monday night will not see an away following of 300. It will also mean that there is probably not a 2,000 gate but still a sizeable crowd. Most Dale fans would watch on TV and avoid a lot of issues.

For the clubs concerned there is £72k of TV money here which is significantly greater than the gate receipts of Slough vs Rochdale will likely only be £25k-£30k

There is a guarantee that the Monday game team will know the potential third round prize before they kick off.

BT will want the drama of a big tie in Round 3 and a scripted upset.

Billericay or Leatherhead to Wycombe is more convenient than Rochdale to Slough at any time.

The Barrow tickets came from Barrow, while Gainsborough were at home!

BT are showing Billericay v Leatherhead replay next week - so I don't think they'll choose them again for the 2nd round ? Seems unfair to the other non league clubs involved who haven't been televised.

For purely selfish reasons I'd love it to be the Monday evening as I'm away over the weekend 😃

The proximity of Fylde to BBC HQ had no weighting on their decision, I'm sure.

I don't think that makes a difference to BT Sport's thinking.

The rights BT have allow them to show two live first round games after BBC get first pick. They showed Shaw Lane vs Manfield and Chorley vs Fleetwood.

They have rights to two of the first round replays of which Billericay v Leatherhead is one; Tranmere Rovers and Peterborough United being the other to face Woking or bury is the other.

There were only five draws in Round 1 so two from five replays would see the non-league teams. Woking and Guiseley being the unlucky ones not to get featured, mainly I think due to to interest rather than the fact they are non-league.

There are only two guaranteed home sides in Round 2, three if Woking beat bury and with the hoopla that surrounds the Billericay owner I could see them on again if they progress.

Fylde v Wigan was the standout tie so not surprised BBC went for that over our game. I am not sure why the Wycombe game is so attractive as it does not fit the normal pattern of non-league team at home to league team. I would have though the other game likely to be televised is Gateshead v Luton. If we were also on TV then travel for both sets of away fans would be difficult, so the argument above would be moot.
