Gemmel Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 1. Chelsea 2. Leicester City 3. Manchester United 4. Stoke City 5. West Ham United 6. Newcastle United / Manchester City 7. Sunderland / Southampton 8. Tottenham Hotspur / Hull City Don't like draws when we are still not through, but with the lucky number 7, I'll take it. I wonder whether an easy/easier draw will change MP's team ahead of next week? If he can see a clear route to Wembley, then may be he will really go for it.
Batman Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 stoke, west ham or leicester at home about the best we can ask for
LatvianTolix Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Could someone tell why arent we playing today???
Batman Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Could someone tell why arent we playing today??? tyne-weir police would not police both newcastle and sunderland at home at the same time in the week
LatvianTolix Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 aaa. ok. understood. was suprised not to see us playing tbh with other fixtures this midweek.
igsey Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 What time is the draw? I assume after tonight's matches. That's how it usually works, right?
Turkish Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 The easiest draw possible at home, I guess that would be Leicester. We can win this if we get a bit of luck!
Batman Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Newcastle have looked very poor. Losing 2-0 now
Tractor_Saint Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Years past I'd look forward to the draw. However tonight doesn't really interest me as I know we're good for any team that plays us. Ooo, It's ManUre - so? We drew with them Ooo, It's Man City - so? etc. etc. No fun anymore, we're just too good
saintadjg Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 i hope we prioritise the league .wont mind if we played our youth team
Saint Garrett Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Leicester Vs Man City Stoke vs Man Utd Saints/Sunderland vs Chelsea Spurs/Hull vs WHU
Colinjb Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Leicester v Man City Stoke City v Manchester United Saints/Sunderland v Chelsea!!! Spurs/Hull v West Ham
Batman Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Chelsea home should we get through. Would be a TV game no doubt
trousers Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Who do we play either side of that date? Newcastle Away (before)
JRM Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 semi finals clearly going to be Man City v Man Utd and Spurs v Chelsea !!
Dr Who? Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 So Man city, Man utd Saints Spurs The semi final line up!
Dr Who? Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Thinking about it, stoke could be Man U, and West Ham just won 0-3 at the lane. Man city are through with us though.
ashleyb5443 Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 I wouldn't be surprised if we field a week team next week to concentrate on that champions league spot.
Dr Who? Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 semi finals clearly going to be Man City v Man Utd and Spurs v Chelsea !! Like Bradford beating Arsenal was? Who it Swansea beat in the semi?
marc_saint Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 semi finals clearly going to be Man City v Man Utd and Spurs v Chelsea !! If that does end up being the case it'll probably open up another place in the league for a Europa spot then as they will all qualify anyway
Nexstar Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Just can't see Poch putting out a full-strength team and Chelsea's backup players basically form another top Prem starting XI.
Colinjb Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 (edited) Just can't see Poch putting out a full-strength team and Chelsea's backup players basically form another top Prem starting XI. But play an under strength side and it'll subvert the player's confidence. I'm confident we will give the fixture it's due. Edited 30 October, 2013 by Colinjb
Leicestersaint Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 We should now give this cup our best shot.
Tractor_Saint Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 I'd love to see us play at Wembley this year. Currently this is the best opportunity so I'm supporting the team through and through.....
JRM Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 If that does end up being the case it'll probably open up another place in the league for a Europa spot then as they will all qualify anyway good point , assuming United climb into the top 5 this would ensure Europa league down to 6th , and if FA Cup place does the same could be 7th - our best chance of qualifying maybe is the league.
Sour Mash Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 Couldn't think of a worse draw. would rather have drawn them away. I wonder if this will impact ours or Sunderland's approach to next week's game.

Turkish Posted 30 October, 2013 Posted 30 October, 2013 We'll probably lose at Sunderland but the worst draw we could have got! stills you never know magic of the cup and all that.
SaintBobby Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 We'll probably lose at Sunderland but the worst draw we could have got! stills you never know magic of the cup and all that. Agreed. The worst draw we could have got. Brilliant spot. I doff my cap to you, sir. (cretin)
niceandfriendly Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 Excellent draw (if we beat Sunderland). A big team at home who we are more than capable of beating. Yummy.

A big team at home who we are more than capable of beating. Yummy. Why isn't it the worst draw we could have got?
Batman Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 Why isn't it the worst draw we could have got? Chelsea away is worse
Turkish Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 Agreed. The worst draw we could have got. Brilliant spot. I doff my cap to you, sir. (cretin) Strange post from one of the biggest weirdos on here.
Hatch Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 When is the final? want to start making arrangements now
Sour Mash Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 Chelsea away is worse Maybe, but at least it'd potentially be a decent away, rather than having 5k Chelsea fans at St Marys and a rerun of last season's FA Cup game.
brmbrm Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 Well I'd have preferred manure v man****ty and spuds vchelski, leaving us to beat thereto the other final spot. As it is we have to eat three of the other top teamsinthe country to win the cup
John Boy Saint Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 Having found myself in a position where with a little effort and inconvenience offset by being, ahem, slightly Sunderlands way next week, and being purely selfish, I hope we give this a go this year and put in a good performance. Chelsea at home isn't too bad and with who is left in it the League Cup has a bit of merit this year. Its how Mr Cortese sees it as apparently he wasn't too happy with Pardew going after the JPT as he feared it would impede our promotion chase, that said he did admit that the he throughly enjoyed the Final and was glad that we did get there afterall. But last seasons FA Cup v Chelsea we did just go through the motions of just turning up.
Mowgli Posted 31 October, 2013 Posted 31 October, 2013 Just can't see Poch putting out a full-strength team and Chelsea's backup players basically form another top Prem starting XI. He will put out a team just strong enough to beat the opposition. So players like Gaston, Kelvin, Chambers, JWP and possibly Lee and Fox should all get starts.
