Was the Sunderland match originally planned for the Saturday we played Swansea in the Cup ??

Yes it was. A loooooong way to go on a Tuesday evening and glad the next two games are that way round other wise they would be going to Fleetwood just 4 days later!!!. At least Sunderland got to visit us during the summer holidays.
