Yep. Early kick off this one. 
And I totally forgot. 
Was stood on the bus stop in Cadbury Heath waiting for the 1pm number 45 to get me to the game. 
It was only when I was stood on the stop daydreaming that the realisation suddenly hit me that the match was an early kick off. 
You know sometimes when you’ve forgotten something and all of a sudden it just pops into your head and you think “ohhh bugger!!” That was me that day! 🤣

I remember a night game at the gate in early 70s with the hammers , I was in east end and a crowd of cockneys got in suddenly a gap opened and this West Ham coloured chap with a large leather cap came forward and produced a large knife ( frightening ) crowd surged forward and he lost his footing, oh dear anyway great game West Ham won think it was 2-1 Clyde best and Trevor brooking some great players in that team Billy bonds , frank Lampard , Mervin day in goal , great night very exciting

so we're not a TV game, as expected. Only reason to move from Saturday 3pm now is OB...

I'm not quite sure how some of those games have made it onto TV. 

Probably only selected because they're premier league ties. 

You'd have thought something like Gillingham Vs Sheffield Utd would be a TV game over Spurs V Burnley.

Spurs been selected simply to move another London match to a different day. All driven by the police.

Think it’s 50/50 now at this point after the TV announcements. 
Either our game or Millwall will be moved to the Sunday. 
My concern is that OB will be worried about the sheers numbers we’ll bring if it’s a Saturday. Leicester won’t bring that many; bit on an underwhelming draw for them. 
Should find out tomorrow.

I'll defend seagulls a bit.

Fish..plenty of overfishing has severely reduced their natural food supply.

Coastal erosion in part attributable to human activity, building further and further has reduced their habitats somewhat.

We had some who visit us, not even for food- just like looking in and interacting albeit given their excellent manners and actions perhaps they are different seabirds who look a bit like seagulls. Idk there are some though.

Just don't assume anything until it's announced. I think many have decided it's a 3pm Saturday KO purely because we are not a TV pick.

Soon to be followed by 5 pages on who’s happy and can make it and who can’t.

Then how are we getting there, much easier now there’s the Liz line btw, then will there be train strikes, then where are we drinking, then it’ll be time for @Jerseybean match day thread.

I was sent this last night, and if that's the lot it leaves ;

West Ham United v Bristol City
Fulham v Rotherham United
AFC Wimbledon v Ipswich Town
Millwall v Leicester City
Chelsea v Preston North End
Queens Park Rangers v Bournemouth
Brentford v Wolverhampton Wanderers

There are still games to be moved IMO , can't see the Met wanting all those fans coming out at the same time on a Saturday afternoon.

Why on earth are they showing the first 2 games? I get the others.

I don't know how it works but I imagine the 4 west london clubs never play at the same time, 2 or 3 tops. Looking at Orient since its close by they are due to have a saturday 3pm kick off in league 1 against Blackpool, but Blackpool still have a 2nd round cup tie to play. That could potentially be a problem even though it most likely won't go ahead.
