OzzieMandias Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Really hope we field our Accrington team for this. Maybe a slightly strengthened version. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakka Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Fourth time in nine years we've pulled Chelsea in this competition apparently. It's pretty shit, I just hope they play a youth/reserve side and we can sneak a win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley17 Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 If we get in HBA and Keane or another striker, that's already 3 players better off plus Sol and hopefully Guthrie compared to what we had at Accrington. Second team will be much stronger than Wednesday's team I'd wager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second team will be much stronger than Wednesday's team I'd wager. Hughton is clever enough to know that the Accrington won't have any chance against Chelsea. He'll mix both teams up, will put some fringe players like Lovenkrands, Shola, Krul and Ryan Taylor into our Premier League team and that's it.

Ashley17 Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Smith, Sol (match fitness), Kadar, plus the 4 you mentioned, and whoever's not been in the team out of Ben Arfa, Guthrie, Barton, Jonas, Routledge, Tiote etc (they can't all play in the league, obviously), it won't be that bad of a line-up to be honest. The Chelsea teams from last season suggest they won't play their best 11, the likes of Ferreira, Turnbull, Zirkhov, Dan Sturridge...shouldn't be a mauling at least.

Mr. Snrub Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Quite looking forward to see Carroll give Terry a good crack. We'll see that happen twice in the league, where it will matter a lot more than this poxy cup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Preston at home. But it'll probably be Chelsea (A). Seriously, do any bookies give odds on cup draws? We could all fucking retire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Couldn't care less about this competition Couldn't have a more different attitude personally. What would you be saying if you got Northampton at home then an easy draw in the next round? It's a good shot at a trophy. Very unlucky with the draw on this occasion, fwiw.

Mr. Snrub Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 It's completely pointless. We have the FA Cup, what's the point in having another tournament that consists of all the same teams? All it does is cause fixture congestion. All the other top footballing counrties only have 1 domestic cup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However it's a cup nonetheless and I'd want my team to take it seriously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stozo Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Bad draw. With Stoke at home on the weekend we will have to put out the development squad again and hope for the best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

[in the dressing room] Hughton: It's ok lads, Carlo told me they'd play their kids, so you lot, this is a big night in your careers, go out there and... Ancelotti: Erm... Chris. John, Frank and Didier were just passing by and, well, they really fancied a kickabout. Soz'ard. Hughton: D'oh! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
