Man City and Arsenal sneaked through yesterday, as at the end if the day it is not that important to them. For Lecester, Bournemouth and now W Ham it is most likely their best shot at winning something this year. No point losing sleep over it I suppose, we get who we get! Not a bad dilemma to have. I just don't want Bournemouth or Leicester away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesson for them there. They didn't exactly look gutted at Full time either. Bigger fish to fry, methinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigger fish to fry, methinks Suppose that’s a sign of how far they’ve been come since they won it 10 years ago. Wasn’t too long ago that they’d have loved winning the League Cup. Now they’re dining with Real Madrid and the other big boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midlands Robin Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 I'd love a home tie against any one except West Ham. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YorkshireSection Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Id love Utd away as they are more likely to sell out than anyone else as they draw fans from all over Europe even for a tie against unfashionable Bristol City. West Ham: New stadia Arsenal: Half empty Citeh: Half empty but cheap ticket Chelsea: Read Arsenal Save myself typing anymore a dicking at home to B'mouth or Leicester!!!!!

For **** sake, after all the deliberation on this thread and the uncertainty in the media, I thought I had it right based on what I heard on Sky yesterday. Now you've only gone and thrown in up in the air again! Please can Carabao and the FA stop pissing around with the draw time and can it not just follow the final fixture on Sky?!

Swede Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 9You just know it will be a team that has something to play for either Leicester, Bournemouth or West Ham. I really hope for Arsenal at home I bet it's bloody West Ham again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkz 76 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Very exciting time especially for the younger fans who have never seen city in a domestic cup quarter final. Anybody at home for me I’m not bothered could it be a fourth premier league scalp which is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chipdawg Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 Trying to be realistic, we're either going to get one of the big boys or a team who think this could be their chance of a day out at Wembley. So while I think that if it were played tomorrow we could beat Bournemouth or Leicester, I think I'd want us to cash in our karma chips and get Man Utd or Arsenal. Though as someone else pointed out, Arsenal have struggled to overcome Norwich and Doncaster so maybe that's an easier tie than I give credit for. Whatever happens, I don't want it to become a distraction from the league though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
