carling cup draw (2 Viewers)

skybluejelly · Jun 14, 2011

seeing as we know it is one of the following teams..who do you want in the first round..
North (unseeded):
Sheffield Wednesday, Hartlepool United, Tranmere Rovers, Oldham Athletic, Notts County, Walsall, Chesterfield, Bury, Shrewsbury Town, Accrington Stanley, Bradford City, Burton Albion, Crewe Alexandra, Macclesfield Town, Morecambe, Port Vale, Rotherham United, Northampton Town.

personally would like morecombe again,because there is no way we could play as badly as we did last year there..and i feel we owe them one..

also if we are really desperate for money i hope we put a half decent team out this year

or rotherham so we can see the chuckle brothers

a championship team can get quite far in this competition if they play it right as all of the premier league and a majority of fellow championship teams but out their reserve teams, including us last season. I know it's not considered an important trophy by some but when you're as skint as we are then surely we must take every competition seriously

Bertola · Jun 14, 2011

Northampton for me please

jackdg · Jun 14, 2011

As a Manchester-based Sky Blue... I'm just happy that we've squeezed into the northern half of the draw! Means a trip to the Ricoh would be one of the longest I can get.

Personally hoping for Crewe away... always used to score bucket-loads against them, also remember us demolishing Macclesfield in the cup about 10 years ago

fanta80 · Jun 14, 2011

The same Crewe where we lost 4-1 once?

jackdg · Jun 14, 2011

Well yeah... I was at that one too... Was hungover as anything, met my old man at the station and lost my specs... All in all a bad day

Call it the exception that proves the rule

Ha ha I remember the grown bloke next to me who had a big bet on 6-0 and started crying when Huckerby scored the 7th :laugh:

thorn said he would take all the cups seriously at the fan forum,hopefully a good cup run or get a prem team at home would be nice, this cup is winnable for championship teams if they care

Glenn Storer · Jun 14, 2011

I desperately wanna have a good cup run this year. It's always special.

Jimthor · Jun 14, 2011

I'd like Sheff Weds. Got quite a few Weds supporter mates, would make good banter!

Sky Blue M · Jun 14, 2011

Northampton Town or Notts County away. Closest away games we could have.

flammablepiss · Jun 14, 2011

Northampton or Rotherham for me. Would be easiest to get to

Covstu · Jun 14, 2011

Well it at least it got a team that we'll be playing in this division, this season into Europe.

Skybluesimon · Jun 14, 2011

Live outside Crewe, got a Crewe season ticket as I go with my mates and they are dirt cheap!
So really want it to be Crewe away this year, obviously I'll be in the away end, but I'll get a fair bit of stick if we lose :S

covcity4life · Jun 14, 2011

so many europa games,cant see brum doing well and if they do it will mess up their championship season

but kingy wanted europeon football......

Regis87 · Jun 14, 2011

Notts county so we could give Lee Hughes some stick

Sky Blue Luke · Jun 14, 2011

Is the draw for this on friday like the league fixtures?

sw88 · Jun 14, 2011

Walsall away is always a good fixture, especially if travelling by train!

But as long as we take it serious (or atleast more serious than last year) i dont care whos on the losing side

blueflint · Jun 14, 2011

burton albion there at least close to home :facepalm:

Hamish · Jun 14, 2011

Burton away please. Great beer and food also standing up.

skybluesteve76 · Jun 15, 2011

First thing is we don't want any of them away!! I'd go any if them at home! Haha

sky_blue_up_north · Jun 15, 2011

Port Vale or Crewe.... just down the road from me...

We'll_live_and_die · Jun 15, 2011

Seeing as i work at the Ricoh, any of them at home please.

fanta80 · Jun 16, 2011
