Here’s how fans reacted to the latest 25/26 FA Cup Quarter Final TV selections revealed by BBC and TNT Sports…

@elchewhite: Another round without a single Saturday 3pm kick off. Imagine my shock thinking football is for fans 🤷‍♂️🙄

@greggislocallfc: As if Southampton vs Arsenal is on BBC over city Liverpool 🤣🤣🤣

@c21attridge95: Absolutely shocking decision not to have Man City v Liverpool on free to air because that would get a lot more viewers than Chelsea v Port Vale would. Unless there’s mitigating circumstances elsewhere then TNT should be allowing the BBC to carry the two best games free to air…

@BDChristian73: Brilliant well done the FA Saints now have to rearrange 2 league games to play one cup game, common sense would be put the cup game on Friday or Monday still could be on TV. But we are where we are!!

@_jwynny:
Fair play for them for arranging every round in the worst way possible
4:30 Sunday slots for third round onwards:
R3 – Man Utd v Brighton
R4 – Arsenal v Wigan
R5 – Leeds v Norwich
QF – West Ham v Leeds

@Tomp_14: Wow! The BBC have got the two lower league teams games and not many city liverpool, would of taken that and the Chelsea game but hay ho. Just a shame the two games are one straight after the other.

@Dan_B94: Moving past the fact that the quarter finals have a weekend reserved for it with no Premier League games AGAIN, 3 on a Saturday and 1 on Sunday? The game’s gone.
