Exeter away - match timing

Apologies if this has already been covered, I've scanned through the thread titles and some relevant threads for comments and not found anything.

Does anyone know why the second leg is scheduled for a Thursday evening, rather than a Saturday afternoon?

This will surely reduce the usual fantastic travelling support we have, and possibly have an adverse impact on the team?
 
It's on a Thursday because The Football League dance to Sky TV's tune. Just another reason for me to loathe Sky as now I couldn't go even if I got a ticket!!
 
Annoying isn't it. The Premiership clubs moan about TV schedules but it's TV that pays their ridiculous wages.
At least they benefit from being messed about. We don't get a penny from Sky for the play off games which is totally wrong.

And while I am one, the story in The Times today about Prem fixture scheduling. Top 6 don't play each other first game or last game. No wonder Huddersfield have a nightmare run-in! Commercial all the way no matter how they try to spin it.
