The dates they release at the start of the season are always holding dates that are subject to change.Ah, does seem a bit strange they've changed it...maybe that person is right about it something to do with Sheff Utd/Blackburn being in the Quarters of the FA Cup.
Still even so, it's still very silly for anyone to book non-refundable transport/accommodation, when no teams are guaranteed to be in the play off finals until the Play Off Semi's have concluded.
There’s only being one Monday Championship play-off final in the last five seasons.
Many things can alter it - police advice, teams progression in other tournaments, fixture congestion, Sky preference, etc.
The only date it certainly wasn’t going to be on was Sunday as they weren’t going to have it on the same day as the final day of the Premier League season.
Hopefully it’s not a concern next season as we’ll be in the Prem, but it’s one for people to note for future reference it’s not confirmed until it’s actually confirmed. Same as the league fixtures.
