I would think that if we were to play Fulham, it would be better all round if it was on a Saturday.
Is there anything set down to allow both clubs - us/Gills - if they so wish to settle the tie on the day/night? I seem to remember something to do with a Manchester team and not wanting a replay???? Would we want the additional cash from a replay??
Lots of ifs and maybes, but I just wondered? Anybody???

At one time the FA Cup used to have preference over a league game,which would have meant postponing the Rotherham game and playing it then. Don't think they apply that anymore.
If you beat Gillingham on the 23rd then Fulham would have to be a night match, unless of course it takes so long that the Fulham 4th round game is played on 5th round date
If you draw with Gillingham then what I just said becomes even more realistic
