Rule breakers.
The FA Cup sixth-round reply between West Ham United and Manchester United is set to take place on April 13 at Upton Park, with kick-off at 7pm.

They’ve settled on Wednesday April 13, but could be on a collision course with Uefa, as Champions League ties are due to take place on the same night.
