Supposing we beat Leeds in the Fifth Round of the cup...

The Quarter Finals are played on weekend of 4th and 5th April, so we would have to rearrange our games against Portsmouth (Good Friday) and Millwall (Easter Monday). Then, if by some miracle we beat whoever we get in the Quarter Finals, the semi-finals are the weekend of 25th April, which is our penultimate game of the season against Swansea.

I know that progression that far is unlikely but there doesn't seem to be much flexibility for a lower league side to rearrange their fixtures in the event of a cup run. It's almost like the schedule was created with Premier League teams in mind because that's three games that would need squeezing into a midweek before 2nd May, whereas the Premier League have the Fifth Road weekend off.
