I want the best chance for us to progress. I'm not convinced playing Bournemouth would be any easier than playing a big team's reserves. They will see this as a realistic chance to win the first (?) trophy in their history and will be right up for it. At QF stage it's still a distraction for the big boys.

Tomo Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 I guess it's pretty obvious that everyone wants to play us in the Quarter Final's! https://www.foxestalk.co.uk/topic/113873-league-cup-quarter-final-draw/http://www.bournemouth.vitalfootball.co.uk/forum/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=81475&start=1http://www.kumb.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=169886 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wendyredredrobin Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 The question is do we want them? Leicester, Bournemouth and West Ham are all beatable with a trip to Wembley as a result. Spurs away would be at Wembley too. Don't fancy Chelski for some reason. Alternatively, a trip to Manchester or the Emirates would be fun. It's all good.

Phileas Fogg Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 Well obviously Prem clubs would want us. There’s a number of strong teams left in and for clubs like Chelsea, Arsenal and United they haven’t played here in years whereas they play the other teams twice a season. Clubs like Leicester, West Ham and Bournemouth should be careful what they wish for though.. we could easily turn one of them over at home.

It's all good. Spurs are out i'm afraid - I'm quite glad as it wouldn't feel like a genuine Wembley trip. I want to play whoever would give us the best chance of going through so maybe West Ham or Arsenal at home? If not, one of the London teams away as they're easy for me to get to!

BRISTOL86 Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 What a bizarre comment on the Leicester forum Yep we need to show Nicky Maynard he made a mistake not joining us.

Roe Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 Semis aren't at Wembley either. It'd be a home and away leg to likely one of the top sides (which would be awesome, especially if we could somehow compete). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wendyredredrobin Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 At home, if we play like we did against Palace we have a chance of beating anyone. But if we play like we did against Leeds, no chance at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as we're home or away we've always got a chance . None of the clubs remaining in the draw will want to play us ; Unknown quantity, risk of humiliating defeat and passionate supporters willing our team on . For their supporters it will be stressful. As I've written previously, much depends on the football gods . We all know that in football the best team or the favourite doesn't always win . We cannot deny the victories over Watford , Stoke or Palace happened. If we play at our best we can beat anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendyredredrobin Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 Main problem is that at QF stage, prem teams take it more seriously with the prospect of silverware and a place in Europe at stake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't stand it when they get all pissy when they're told to leave their stupid bubble machine at home. My prediction is a stunning 1-0 win at home to Man Utd in the Quarters. We face Leicester over two legs in the Semi's losing 1-0 at the King Power before playing them off the park to go through 3-2 on aggregate at the Gate. Then onwards to face Arsenal in the final. Lots of talk about the summer of 76. A sea of red at Wembley and an incredible 1-0 win to send us into Europe. With you all the way . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
