    Not sure if its already been mentioned but I've just been checking what the dates would be. I noticed underneath it said that if Millwall finish 3rd and us 6th, it would be swapped from match A to match B, anyone know why?

    Police don't want Millwall playing at 5.15 on a Saturday. So if Millwall finish third they will play on a Sunday, no matter who they are playing

    We are 'the Millwall of the north', so it's like a local derby. Or summat.

    Not sure what makes it so much better by changing it. Ok the first leg would be sunday morning instead of saturday night but the away leg woulf be friday night.

    The swap would only occur if we were due to play Millwall on Saturday evening. Clearly SYP don't fancy policing such a clash, due to the likelyhood of Millwall bringing very good numbers and drinking all day. It clearly isn't an issue for the police in Lincolnshire or Kent, but then again SYP aren't known for competence and have had previous with Millwall fans. The away leg doesn't really matter, a Friday night game would see more fans going down I guess, but not anything to worry the Met. So from a police point of view, job done. From a fans pont of view, rubbish.

    Think we'll end up with Walsall anyway, should we get there!
