Been having trouble posting for some reason? (5th attempt seems to have worked)
Back to Cup competition this week (sorry it's late)
Just the 8 games, but all interesting.
8 Premier league teams all avoiding each other for a change meaning a few of the smaller teams finally get a big fish.
Odds are that the Prem teams should all go through, but as some of them have been playing reserves in the Cup there is still a chance of slip up's :)
5 Games on Saturday, 2 on Sunday and the dream draw on Monday which could be the biggest story in Cup history (or more likely 5-0 to Arsenal?).
Burnley v Lincoln
Huddersfield v Man City
Middlesbrough v Oxford U
Millwall v Leicester
Wolves v Chelsea
Fulham v Tottenham
Blackburn v Man Utd
Sutton Utd v Arsenal
Good Luck All :)
Usual cup rules - 90 minute score (or 98 mins in some cases) no replays included.
Burnley v Lincoln 2-0
ReplyDeleteHuddersfield v Man City 1-2
Middlesbrough v Oxford U 3-0
Millwall v Leicester 2-2
Wolves v Chelsea 1-2
Fulham v Tottenham 2-1
Blackburn v Man Utd 0-3
Sutton Utd v Arsenal 1-0
No replays!
Just checked and the 5th Round games can still be drawn and no extra time, the 6th Round onwards have to be decided on one game.
ReplyDeleteReally hoping that Sutton can upset Arsenal :) but if Arsene Wenger has got any sense he will play his first team and go for a 10 goal rout just to keep the doubters at bay for a week after last night's disgrace.
Moment of celebr... silence for Mark Clattenburg lads?
ReplyDeleteOh what a shame Twattenburg off to Saudi for the cash :)
ReplyDeleteDon't think any West Ham fan will be upset, but Liverpool might need to buy a replacement?

A touch of the Lawro's, expecting 8 points but won't be upset if I don't get any :)
More Lawro than Lawro himself...he has only go for 4x 2-0's.

Sadly nobody went for the Lincoln win, good performance showing the Prem big boys how to play against a strong Burnley team.
ReplyDeleteLeicester and Boro are playing reserve sides so might slip up, Man City's reserves are all multi million pound internationals so should have enough to win?
Sorry I'm late (again)

Chelsea, Tottenham and Man U showing the Cup a bit more respect by playing a lot of first teamers and all win.
