The FA is pleased to confirm the replays for the Emirates FA Cup Third Round to be played on Tuesday 19 January and Wednesday 20 January.

As well as the confirmed BBC televised replay between Leicester City Football Club and Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday 20 January (KO 7.45pm) BT Sport has confirmed two further televised replays.

On Tuesday 19 January Bristol City FC will host Tony Pulis' West Bromwich Albion side at Ashton Gate live on BT Sport (KO 7.45pm).

In addition to this and following Exeter City Football Club and Liverpool FC's fantastic Third Round tie at St James Park, The FA and BT Sport have agreed to air the replay live from Anfield on Wednesday 20 January (KO 8pm).

The first tie between the two clubs provided a fantastic advert for the competition and there remains an appetite to see how the tie is played out.

Teams will each receive £72,000 in broadcast fees in addition to the £144,000 received for the initial fixture (£216,000 over both games), with a further £67,500 for the winning team.

To date this season, over £5.5m worth of prize money and live broadcast fees have been paid out to clubs.

The following Emirates FA Cup Fourth Round ties await the winners of these televised replays:

Colchester United v Leicester City or Tottenham Hotspur
Bristol City or West Brom v Peterborough United
Exeter City or Liverpool v West Ham United

Can't get time off work to go so glad it's on the tele. A small consolation and more money for the club.

Now that is a result alround! Clearly all the haggling revolved around BT getting permission to televise our game when they are supposed to do a Tuesday and thrusday game. Great outcome!

That is very good news. Why it took the thick end of a week to sort out, I guess we will never know

 

[Cygnus]

So at last we know and it looks like Liverpool have won this apparent stand off with the game staying on Wednesday evening. After all this we can expect them to put out a stronger side with more 1st team players featuring, so let's hope we can cause a real upset.

Hopefully now we know the date, we can sell out our initial allocation and create an atmosphere similar to last Friday evening to cheer the lads on. We can more noise than a half full Kop for sure! As I can't see the Liverpool fans getting excited about this game.

Indeed! Everyone's a winner....Liverpool get the Wednesday.. BT get the game (and another one on Tuesday).. City get the 72k for tv coverage...and ECFC fans who can't make it can (try to) see it on tv.
