FA Cup clash between ​Man Utd & Arsenal moved to Friday

Manchester United and Arsenal supporters will be disappointed to hear their game has been moved to Friday night.

The FA Cup fourth round clash between the two sides will take place on Friday the 25th of January.

And it is a late kickoff, at 755pm, which means that fans will face a late journey home, especially those traveling from Manchester.

The game was moved as part of television coverage, as it will be shown on the BBC.

Both clubs also have games next week on Tuesday, which would have created fixture congestion had the game been moved to Sunday.

But many people took to Twitter to express their disappointment that match going supporters were being sidelined by such fixture adjustments.
