MY BIRTHDAY

this could be your worst birthday yet! haha

Looking at the line ups for they're tie with wba, I'm not sure either side were too keen on it, if they're in the mix down the bottom by the time this comes around it could well benefit us.

i think you can guarantee norwich won't be thinking they've stayed up by mid october and that they can concentrate on cups.

Just said it might benefit us if they lose any interest in this comp by being more focused on their league fixtures, nothing about them believing they'll be safe.

Don't reckon they'll have much interest either way tbh, and Kyle Lafferty will prob net a brace to knock us out.

i'm guessing they'll play a weakened team because their interest will be on the league - regardless of their league results until then. same goes for half the prem tbh - it does make it that bit harder for the top teams who will finish around us in the league to actually get knocked out. City, united and liverpool were putting out their strongest team nearly.

Ya, the top sides definitely taking it more seriously than in years gone by, probably a result of managers being under pressure more than anything.

That was the disappointing thing about tonights draw for me, none of them got each other.

.......wanted a home draw, it's a plus that we haven't got one of the big boys. Couldn't really ask for more, now it's up to us. 3 rounds away from a Cup Final.

I just heard they're getting van wolfswinkle back for this game!

 

[Groucho]

We can have any team at home.

This is true, it's in the small print.

 

[anton66]

For any team playing in Europe it's only 4 games to the L/C final.

 

[Welton Toffee]

What an annoying draw for us Anglian boys !

Yup, can't even sneakily hope for a replay ffs lol

 

[nikom court]

So this will count towards an away credit, maybe even Bournemouth, ridiculous really

Good chance of the underdogs winning - especially if Bournemouth put out a weakened team !!
