Despite all Championship fixtures going ahead on Tuesday 27th September, Leeds game against Birmingam was postponed due to Birmingham's involvement in the UEFA cup. Birmingham have a fixture on Thursday 29th September which is an away trip to NK Maribor. The Leeds vs Birmingmam game will now take place on Wednesday 26th October (19.45 K.O).
I think this is very kind to Birmingham and does nothing to help Leeds. Leeds certainly won't see any of the money Birmingham generate for participating in the UEFA cup this season, yet have to have their fixtures messed up. Leeds now have a backdated game and a disadvantage in the league table due to playing one game less than everyone else.
