stevegrant Posted 28 August, 2013 Share Posted 28 August, 2013 Teams already through to the third round draw: Man United Man City Chelsea Arsenal Tottenham Swansea Wigan Saints Bristol City Burnley Fulham Leicester Derby Leeds Huddersfield Hull Liverpool Norwich Peterborough Swindon Sunderland Tranmere West Ham Birmingham West Brom With 7 games being played tonight: Accrington v Cardiff Aston Villa v Rotherham Everton v Stevenage Morecambe v Newcastle Nottingham Forest v Millwall Stoke v Walsall Watford v Bournemouth Difficult to see any of the 5 PL teams involved this evening losing, so looks like there will be 19 PL teams out of the 32 in the draw.

Sheaf Saint Posted 28 August, 2013 Share Posted 28 August, 2013 Another local-ish away game for me would be nice (as I got my wish for Barnsley away in the last round ). Leeds or Huddersfield would be good. Derby isn't far and it would be good to exorcise the ghost of the 2007 play-offs at Pride Park. Rotherham would be great but I can't see them beating Villa tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrant Posted 28 August, 2013 Share Posted 28 August, 2013 As I want us to progress the easiest draw possible but for personal reasons, somewhere easy for me to get to on a school night! From a purely selfish perspective, I was hoping Burton would beat Fulham in that shootout last night as it's a ground I've not been to yet. Now that Fulham are through, though, I'll take a trip to Craven Cottage as it'll only take me about half an hour to get there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Posted 28 August, 2013 Share Posted 28 August, 2013 Home to Man U would be nice. Good test and if MP selects a strong team, we can put out a side that will be more interested in the Champions League. Winning a game like that would do a lot to raise Saints' profile, which is on the up anyway. We could almost be compared with Cardiff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint1977 Posted 28 August, 2013 Share Posted 28 August, 2013 Bristol City or Swindon away please, probably the latter actually because Bristol is a bit dangerous getting back to the car park/station. Yeovil would have been good. A midlands side could work for me midweek but if it's London/SE/North then home draw please. Swansea/Cardiff away would be tough games although Cardiff might put a weaker side out for their first PL season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good chance of winning this cup, so the easier the route to the final the better. Bookies odds of 28/1 doesn't feel like a good chance of winning it.

Yeah but most of us would prefer an away day so you can have a pi/ss up with your mates and watch saints with a good chance of winning. Of course the mates part probably explains why you wouldn't want that. sadly, i don't think they are using that terrace this season. on all the games so far this year away teams have only been given seats on the side and i understand the plan is to knock down that stand. That's a real shame, was my favourite away day of the lower leagues and the terrace was superb with us in full voice. Be a real loss to english football to see it go.
