Happy with that, it means we shouldn't make it into 4th round and I won't be pissed off for not cancelling my auto cup scheme for this competition!

[MC11]

What channel was the draw on? I put Sky Sports News on especially for it and they were talking about the Champions League.

Yeah we have a very good record there but until we know how seriously us (and Swansea) are taking the competition it's a difficult one to call.

Sky 1.

[gethinO]

Chance of getting a ticket for that one hopefully. Train from Cardiff is only a £5.

[Romey 1878]

 

Sky 1.

Do you mean Sky Sports 1 or was it on Sky 1 as well?

I'm fairly certain I could predict how seriously we will be taking it tight now, and I suspect we won't be in round 4

Meant Sky Sports 1. Sorry.

[markjazzbassist]

i think we can win this, happy about this.

[Bailey]

5 all premier league ties as well.

[EFC-Paul]

Some really good and fairly even games there it's a decent draw

[MikeO]

5 all premier league ties as well.

 

With five already out so that means at least half the premier league gone before the fourth round!

 

Window of opportunity?

 

Though we won't take it because winning the league cup just isn't in our DNA; not that I'm overly bothered.

Yeh exactly, it really is a good opportunity for Europe and Silverware.

 

Given the draw and the probability of winning, I would rather we focussed on the League Cup rather than the FA Cup.

I only had a glance but are we playing this mid-week before the derby game? If so, I don't see us going through, we'll be too mentally focused on playing Liverpool, especially if we don't turn around our preseason form.

[Matt]

Reeeeeeeeeeally dont care...

Correct.

[Shukes]

Good to knock premier teams out early.
