It looks like BT Sport are only going to broadcast live the semi-finals on Wednesday and Monday.
If we are in the play-offs we will be playing on the Wednesday, 5th v 2nd, unless BT Sport change the fixtures at the last minute.
In view of 1983 playing their final fixture on the Sunday and this cannot be changed, it looks like we could also play on the Monday when they are having their bus tour of south Bristol. |

What makes you say that? Unless something has changed, I could have sworn I read on their website that all games would be televised live? |

Also, a latest update from their website:
The Vanarama Conference regrets it is unable, due....
....to circumstances outside of its control, to confirm the full play-off semi-final schedule at the moment.
Having prepared the schedule twelve months ago the competition has been asked in the past few days, by Avon & Somerset Police to take into account Bristol City’s final fixture of the season and its planned open-top bus tour to celebrate success in the Sky Bet League One and the Johnstone's Paint Football League Trophy.
BT Sport also asked to reschedule one of the second leg ties to Bank Holiday Monday but since the game scheduled to be moved involves Grimsby Town FC, Humberside Police has raised concerns regarding this proposal as it will not have sufficient resources to cover all other events in the area, which include a Premier League fixture at Hull City and Beverley Races.
In the meantime, it is planned the first leg ties can proceed as follows:
Fifth-placed club versus Second-placed club on Wednesday, 29th April
Fourth-placed club versus Third-placed club on Thursday, 30th April.
Both first leg ties kick-off at 7.45pm.
We hope the second leg tie between Second-placed club and Fifth-placed club will go ahead as scheduled on Sunday, 3rd May at 12.15pm, although the kick-off time may alter slightly.
We expect a solution to be concluded, and announced, within the next 24 hours in respect of the home tie for Grimsby Town.
Please bear with us as these matters were unexpected and we will continue with all clubs and others involved to search for a suitable solution.

This only confirms the possible dates of the ties, no mention that all the games will be live on TV.
It will be great if they are.

Yeh sorry - this was just the latest info on the dates; it was a different article from their site that originally stated all of the legs would be shown live (that's if I memory is indeed correct!) |

Hypothetically speaking, as a non season ticket holder, I wonder if Forest Green would sell me a ticket for a play off with a Bristol address?

Bus tour is on Monday, they are also playing at home on Sunday, although the timing keeps moving as they confirmed our potentail game was a 1pm start yesterday but now it seems it's 12:45pm, not that 15 mins makes a great deal of difference. |
