    Yeah we all want to see the team win games, don't we.
    And I think we all have the same priorities too, that it's the League before the Cup.
    But hey... now that we're through to the 3rd round, what do we want to see.
    A real money spinner maybe, where we might get embarrassed (like last season away at ManUre).
    Or another low key game, which won't bring the money in, but which we are well capable of winning.

    Somewhere away we've not played before and would make good money from so Everton, Arsenal, Spurs or West Ham.

    Face it, we’ll get Wigan away.

    And Everton will get Liverpool at the new stadium.

    Everton away.

    Failing that, Tottenham, West Ham.

    If we can’t be that lucky I’d like Wednesday away.

    Hey missis, are you suggesting they know which balls to get hold of!!!. :eek:
    I've always thought the same though, that the Cup draws are 'maybe' rigged!.

    I really want Wednesday at home & I want us to go full strength against their reserves & batter them.

    If I can’t have my wish then any of the big clubs. With it being a midweek I’d rather get them at home as it was a ball ache missing half a day of work & getting back at 2am after Man Utd away last season.

    I salute any of you that regularly do midweek league games away from home with the hassle involved.

    Noooo not in the slightest. It’s just incredible the amount of all Premier League ties that come out that amazingly pair together the most talked about clubs at that time…..
    Amazing coincidence.
