I read on the Leicester forum that drawing City is the same as getting a bye so I guess that’s that thats the best thing about it, everyone want's usbecause they think its a walkover, maybe they shoould ask watford, palace and stoke, they argument about reserve sides doesn't stack up ether where we've made an equal number of changes, City are a win win at this stage, we're pretty much guaranteed to be on tele whoever we play as well being the lowerest ranked side left in it and a chance of an upset Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure we're third priority in the TV execs' minds The Man Utd game; Any all-prem tie; and The Bristol City game. So if only two are televised I doubt we'll be on.

Offside Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 A home tie would give us the best chance of progressing. If we're away, for purely selfish reasons I'd rather it isn't Bournemouth or Leicester because I've already been to their grounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chivs Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 OK, if we are drawn first are we at home or not? Also, is there any chance of Ball number 3 being drawn against Ball number 3? We'd all take that surely (tough away draw though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is, for everything other than attendance numbers, it would be a dreadful draw. Mourinho parks the bus and as we have seen against Bolton, Burton and Millwall, we struggle to break down those types of sides. So even the slim chance we'd have to start with would be reduced even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC Rich Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 30 minutes ago, Phileas Fogg said: So many grounds of prem clubs in the 90s that are now no more were so much more aesthetically pleasing. Filbert Street, Maine Road, Highbury, Ninian Park ... luckily Hillsborough and Ibrox are still intact. The redevelopment of Anfield has kept the traditional look pretty well too. Yeah much happier with a re-developed Ashton Gate, much more character and I agree some of those ground where great. At least with Highbury they kept some of the grounds character in the development that took its place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastside Moonwalker Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 Is it weird I can see us beating all the teams other than United and City? Arsenal always field a weak team for this cup, West Ham are West Ham, Leicester have patches of shaky form, Bournemouth will play a second team and are also beatable. Although i'd love a home or away time at United Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since when has anyone put random initials in front of Bournemouth's name?
