Title: Championship Playoffs
Post by: Fulham 442 on March 27, 2017, 08:56:09 AM
 I know the final is on Monday 29th May.  Does anyone know the dates of the actual playoffs before the final?  I can't find the info anywhere.

The info over last few years has only been supplied just before the last set of games.
Last year they were announced on 3rd May (with final league games set for the 7th may)

If I was a betting man id reckon the semi finals this year will be played over 4 days from Friday 12th till Tuesday 16th with Sunday(14th) a blank day

Yep, I'd go with that as well.

The fixtures last season fell on the same equivalent period with:

6v3 Fri
5v4 Sat
3v6 Mon
4v5 Tues

It looks like it could well be replicated this season.

Thanks for that - the timing sounds about right to me!  Fingers crossed we're there!

There are Premier games on the 13th and 21st so they'll have to clash I suppose.  Ch***ea are away at West Brom on the 13th (tv permitting) so shouldn't affect us if we have a home tie.
